Hello everyone,

I am looking to write a simple php interface to create, stop, start, restart, configure, backup, transfer VM's across a network of servers. Storage is done locally on the particular node (lvm), but I am considering to do this through iscsi in the future. Xen, KVM, IP management, firewalling is an important requirement.

The redhat backport version looks outdated, but I know the version number isn't the best way to compare features.

My questions are:

- Featurewise, is the difference between the redhat version and the libvirt.org source version small or as big as it looks (branch versions?)
- Considering the above functions I am going to need, will the redhat version suffice?

Any help would be truely appreciated,

Thank you,

Jim
