Welcome to OpenXenManager's official wiki
What is OpenXenManager/OpenXenCenter?
OpenXenManager is an open source clone of Citrix Xencenter. Works with Citrix Xenserver and Xen Cloud Platform.
OpenXenCenter? is the old name of this project which had to change name due to legal reasons.
Why make a clone?
Citrix Xencenter is only available for Windows, OpenXenManager will run on Linux,BSD,Windows and OSX. And maybe other platforms that can run python.
