It’s entirely<br /> possible you’ll have more questions than I’ve answered, but I’ll do my best.<br /> Here’s the link: http://xenserver.org/blog/entry/xenserver-creedence-tech-preview-and-creedence-alpha.html<br /> <br /> -tim<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;pre&gt;<br /> The easy answer is that the Citrix Tech Preview of XenServer Creedence is binary compatible with the alpha.4 pre-release<br /> binary you can get from xenserver.org. From the perspective of the core platform (i.e. XenServer virtualization bits),<br /> the only difference is in the EULA.<br /> <br /> While the XenServer platform components are binary compatible, Citrix customers have expectations for features which<br /> couldn&#039;t be made open source, or implementations directly supporting Citrix commercial products. Perfect examples of<br /> these features and implementations can be seen on the Tech Preview download page, such as Microsoft System Center<br /> Integration, expanded vGPU support for XenDesktop, and the return of both the DVSC and WLB.<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> == XenServer Creedence Alpha 3 ==<br /> <br /> XenServer Creedence Alpha 3: http://xenserver.org/open-source-virtualization-download/11-product/142-download-pre-release.html<br /> * corresponds to the 2014-06-19 nightly build from the Creedence source branch<br /> <br /> == XenServer Creedence Alpha 2 ==<br /> <br /> XenServer Creedence Alpha 2: http://xenserver.org/open-source-virtualization-download/11-product/142-download-pre-release.html<br /> * corresponds to the 2014-06-05 nightly build from the Creedence source branch<br /> <br /> == XenServer Creedence Alpha 1 ==<br /> <br /> XenServer Creedence Alpha 1 (#85811)<br /> <br /> XenServer Creedence Alpha 1: http://xenserver.org/open-source-virtualization-download/11-product/142-download-pre-release.html<br /> * corresponds to the 2014-05-15 nightly build from the Creedence source branch<br /> <br /> This build delivers a number of improvements/new features: <br /> * Xen 4.4<br /> * 64bit Dom0<br /> * Dom0 userspace updated to Centos 5.10<br /> * 3.10 Dom0 Kernel<br /> * Updated device drivers.<br /> * Updated dm-multipath<br /> * Improved storage performance (blktap 3)<br /> * Support for new guests: SLES 11 SP3, RHEL 6.5, RHEL 5.10 (Ubuntnu 14.04 on the way)<br /> * NFS ReadCache performance improvement for gold images.<br /> <br /> Please note that future builds will be delivering:<br /> * 64bit vGPU support.<br /> * TRIM/unmap support.<br /> * Network performance improvements.<br /> * Support for growing LUNs online.<br /> * Full support for the latest CPUs.<br /> <br /> XenServer:<br /> Linux xenserver-6.5 3.10.0+0 #1 SMP Thu May 22 12:31:54 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux<br /> <br /> XenCenter:<br /> XenCenter version 6.5<br /> <br /> DDK:<br /> /etc/redhat-release<br /> XenServer DDK release 6.4.91-85811c (xenenterprise)<br /> <br /> uname:<br /> Linux citrix-ddk 3.10.0+0 #1 SMP Thu May 22 12:31:54 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux<br /> <br /> == XenServer Creedence Development Snapshots ==<br /> <br /> XenServer Creedence Development Snapshots - http://xenserver.org/open-source-virtualization-download/24-product/creedence/143-xs-2014-development-snapshots.html</div>
