NAME

       xcp-xapi - XCP's XenAPI server

DESCRIPTION

       The  Xen  Cloud	Platform  (XCP)  is an open source enterprise-ready server virtualization and cloud computing platform, with support for a
       range of guest operating systems, Linux network and storage support.

       XCP addresses the needs of cloud providers, hosting services and data centers by combining the isolation and multitenancy  capabilities	of
       the  Xen  hypervisor  with enhanced security, storage and network virtualization technologies to offer a rich set of virtual infrastructure
       cloud services. The platform also address user requirements for security, availability, performance and isolation across both  private  and
       public clouds.

       XCP  consolidates  server  workloads, enables savings in power, cooling, and management costs and thus contributing to environmentally sus-
       tainable computing, an increased ability to adapt to ever-changing IT environments, an optimized use of existing hardware, and an  improved
       level of IT reliability.

       This  is  the XenAPI server, which provides the control plane for XCP hosts and resource pools. To manage the XenAPI server, you should use
       either the XML-RPC based API, the xe command line tool, or a graphical user interface such as OpenXenManager.
