Openstack and KVM
hi guys

I want to test this environment I really have some doubts and I need to read a little bit more

I have two physical servers (where Vmware ESXi used to be installed) I was thinking install KVM (if it turns out to be difficult have KVM up and running I will use ESXi) and deploy the Openstack VMs needed to have this Demo Cloud up and running.

so my question which Linux Distro you recommend for easy KVM configuration?
Can this KVM servers be clustered like Vmware so I have High availability for the virtual Machines hosted?

thanks a lot

The "K" KVM is for "Kernel-based", so it should be independent of any distribution.My experience with CentOS (basically a RedHat) was satisfying, but probably other distributions would have been neither better nor worse.

I hope this helps.
