Ok folks - here is the dilemma

 

I have tried solusvm - and it looks great, except for the fact that they do not have high availability on their offering - and in their forums - it is not something right around the corner... 2nd they do not have KVM as of yet - but that is coming...

 

I have tried FluidVM - and it looks great - they have high availability - however it will not work with our iscsi systems - we have a bunch of different iscsi systems from a thecus to some dell units - and they only support openfiler. While thats great - since ours are already purchased and in place - it does not do much for us :-(

 

VDSManager - is sadly OpenVZ only...

 

ProxMox - we have this in place already and its working - however no whmcs module. I contacted Matt here he said we could hire him to build it ... however the ProxMox folks are looking into the future of OpenVZ with wondering eyes @ present ... even have a question about it themselves on their forums...

 

OpenQRM - played some here but documentation is not all that hot yet - even so looks promising however - no whmcs module to date

 

Does anyone know of a good system that will support ISCI as well as Xen, or KVM as well as OpenVZ that is available now without a huge pricetag

I have also tried out FluidVM, and it's not even close to a stable production release.

 

HyperVM is still by far the best, and it's now open source as well.

 

OpenQRM is also a very good alternative, but there's no support for it in WHMCS.

 

SolusVM looks good, and is supported by WHMCS - but as you say it doesn't work with high availability

Why'd you spend $14k on something like that? Seems to me there are much cheaper alternatives out there that can do the same trick - or did I miss some specific unique features?

 

Its more of an enterprise class software (similar in features to citrix xenserver). But it happens to have a full administration and client web portal.

 

I did not buy it, yet...

 

It's owned software and that one time cost allows for unlimited hypervisors (nodes).

I have been playing some - and spoke with the folks over @ OnAPP. It interfaces with WHMCS -

so might be worth testing.

 

Proxmox is working on vs 2 which should have an api - and I expect when that hits for this to open up for easier use.

 

OpenQRM is now #90 on SourceForge in the top 100 yet again... thats huge...

 

So options - are not as good as we would hope yet sadly
