XENA Practical Guide for the System Administrator
by CHRIS TAKEMURA and LUKE S. CRAWFORD
Xen allows administrators to run many virtual operating systems on one phys-
ical server, including Linux, BSD, OpenSolaris, and Microsoft Windows. In
the process, users save money on hardware, maintenance, and electricity. Not
only is Xen open source, the Xen hypervisor (the virtual machine monitor) is
the best-performing hypervisor available. The Book of Xen explains everything
a system administrator needs to know to use this powerful technology, with
coverage of installation, networking, virtualized storage, and managing guest
and host operating systems. Written for administrators who have worked with
*NIX before but who may be new to virtualization, The Book of Xen covers
both the basics and the trickier aspects of Xen administration, like profiling
and benchmarks, migration, XenSource administration, and hardware
assisted virtualization (HVM).
