+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> at $dayjob, an intern is developing a virtcenter (under my guidance) (which
+</I>&gt;<i> likely will be released opensource), largely based on php-libvirt.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> the idea is to be able to control multiple libvirtd servers (kvm/xen but i
+</I>&gt;<i> hear vmware should have some kind of libvirtd implementation too, (maybe only
+</I>&gt;<i> in their vcenter))
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> the intern is using this as his work and will show a demo of this around
+</I>&gt;<i> Januari.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> in a first stage features will be as follows:
+</I>&gt;<i> - ldap-group-based authentication
+</I>&gt;<i> - libvirtd servers listed in ldap (so that the authentication can be done per
+</I>&gt;<i> group on different servers)
+</I>&gt;<i> - start/pause/resume/stop/poweroff per vm
+</I>&gt;<i> - clone from templates
+</I>&gt;<i> - <A HREF="spice://">spice://</A> links for a locally installed spice-client
+</I>&gt;<i> - if time permits: delete
+</I>&gt;<i> - if time permits: livemigration
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> we are likely gonna be pushing this towards our clients, because the
+</I>&gt;<i> management tools we've seen so far: RH, Oracle, etc... are not adequate or
+</I>&gt;<i> horrible or completely bloated.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> and this would enable us to put other stuff on clients machines rather than
+</I>&gt;<i> always vmware, which has some nasty bugs^Wfeatures.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> so, if you can wait that long, it may be suited.

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; nice topics, all of them
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; 1. Topic: Virtual Machines
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; What do we use? xen/kwm/vmware? I already done automatic setups for
+</I>&gt;<i> xen
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; machines on our side. I could take a look. Could be hart whitout
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; accessing the machines.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> There is nothing at the moment, so no need to have access to servers to
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> start developing tools to manage VMs (probably based on libvirt), or
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> find existing tools that could do what we need.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> What we need :
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - a command to allow users, or group of users, to generate a new VM with
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; Mageia 1, 2, Cauldron, with their ssh key installed in the VM (the ssh
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; key stored in their ldap account), some port redirection to allow
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; them to connect with ssh, or vnc.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - a command to list VMs and their status
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - a command to stop, start, delete a VM
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - limit the number of VMs someone can create (because we have limited
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; disk space on the server)
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; 2. Topic sympa emails
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; maybe we could maniulate the databases. For we use LDAP shouldnt be
+</I>&gt;<i> the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; problem if both systems can interact.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; 3. On the Sysadmin side
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; Backups could be done via bacula. i could set that up. Would be easy
+</I>&gt;<i> to
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; integrate that in puppet for the clients. Needs talking about schedule
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; for incremental and full backups. And i would need access to a backup
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; server.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> We are already installing rsnapshot for backups.
