Pure Joy: Setting up a cloud on my desktop [Nerdgasm]

less than 1 minute read | Suggest an edit | Issue? Question?

I am currently running the following setup on my beast of a desktop:

  • VirtualBox x64
  • Two VMs of XenServer, each with 8 GB of RAM
  • A guest OS of CentOS Desktop, one on each of the XenServers
  • A VM of CloudStack via VirtualBox with 4GB of RAM, managing the XenServer servers
  • Using XenCenter directly from the Desktop as another means of Managing the XenServers.

I’m pretty sure that’s the beginning of a cloud right there, without ever having to leave 127.0.0.1.
