XAPI on debian and openxenmanager

XAPI on debian and openxenmanager

Hi,

While trying the lastest versions of xapi on debian I tried to connect 
it with openxenmanager.
Seemed to work at first (it lists the server and I can see the storage 
repositories in the tree),
but then it hangs on "synchronizing" and I can't do anything except 
killing openxenmanager.

Is it supposed to work or it's a surprise it can even connect ?

The log on the xen host side says:

See attached screenshot for the openxenmanager side.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Cheers,
Sébastien

Hi again,

actually I might have answered the question myself as it seems my 
openxenmanager do the same on
some others xenserver 5.6 hosts. That brings me another question, should 
Citrix XenCenter works
with xapi on debian ? :)

Thanks a lot for your answers.
Sébastien

Now that's a totally different question ;) I think that the same issues
that impact XenCenter working with XCP will impact xapi on Debian as
well. I haven't even tried to get XenCenter working with my test box.

Having said that, I have gotten OpenXenManager to connect to my xapi on
Debian box. I had to patch OXM a bit to keep it from throwing an
exception (see here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3393870&group_id=327385&atid=1374139),
but it got through the synchronization phase just fine.

We definitely plan to have xapi on Debian work well with OXM, and I'll
be working with the OXM maintainer to be sure it works well with xapi on
Debian.
