Xen support provisioning new hosts

Hi list,

I was wondering if there are any plans to support xen enterprise in foreman. i did see a ticket about supporting other hypervisors like kvm/xen.

What i would like is select a xen host and deploy a new system to it. Giving the options os, cpu,mem,disk.

i've used the pxe options in foreman before and I like it. Anyone using xen with foreman or similar?

I think the changes to support xen would probably be minimal, I dont
have a test env, but my guess we are mostly missing an updated xml
template in the vendors/plugins/virt/templates dir.

Foreman communicate with libvirt using a gem/lib I wrote called virt,
if you could get virt to work with Xen, then it would be fairly simple
to do the rest.

cheers,
