XenServer High Availability

  • 772

I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to setup HA-like functionality without paying for the Essentials Package using XenServer. I love XenServer but would rather not fork over $2.5k per server for the Essentials Package.

Also, is the HA that comes with the Essentials Package worth it when compared to the time it would take me to script a custom HA package?

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

P.S. I know you can set this up using Xen and Heartbeat but that's not my question :-)

    Answer to my own question:

    Without lots of custom scripts it's not possible. My final solution was Xen and Xen Cloud:
