I'm using Xen for our cluster management project. At the moment 219 xen-1.2 nodes are up (my interest in multicast is to udpcast virtual disk images to all those hosts). At this time I'm just running two domains on each host but that will be going up soon (as well as the total number of hosts).

Hi, are you using any management software like cfengine?

I saw on this page: http://www.iu.hio.no/cfengine/ "Coming soon: virtual machine networks"

Perhaps there is a way to accomplish the same kind of thing with another package? I am interested in any comments anyone might have about vm image management, especially with open source software. (It does not have to be limited to experience with Xen, though that would be especially interesting :)

Thanks!
