XEN has two versions. The bare metals one and another that can be installed on top of centos Have a look at https://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-xen-on-centos-6.2-x86_64-para... http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart If you go for KVM have a look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjnDFUan8B0 Best regards, Alex From: Evon Wangari via skunkworks [mailto:skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke] Sent: Wednesday, July 1, 2015 2:09 PM To: njukey@gmail.com Cc: Skunkworks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] VIRTUAL MACHINES ON CENTOS 6.5 Hi Njuki, I have used XEN before and it works best. The issue here is, the server is already running centos 6.5 server with a number of server applications. To utilize it for, I require to do vitalization such that, the centos will be the base. I think for XEM, it acts as the base OS if am not wrong. Am looking for the best Virtual Machine manager to run on the centos .

You obviously cant reach the virtual host if there is no connection between the physical interface on your HP box and the the VM. Xen offers different ways of configuring this. Start here http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Network_Configuration_Examples_(Xen_4.1%2B) But I'm sure there are countless other resources online the same.

Currently running 6.5 Centos. Which is the best Virtual box so as I can have independent machines running. I.e not NAT. A way I can reach the virtual host from remote if it has a public IP.
