Summary of 'The Mysteries of Xen Virtualization'
------------------------------------------------

What if your server could do more?  Studies have shown that many server
CPUs are only around 10-20% used.  This presentation is a sys admin's overview
of Xen tools towards the goal of portable virtual machines.  We'll go over the
features and configuration of open-source Xen and XenServer, and talk about
what these tools can do for an organization.  If time permits, we may also
discuss the use of Puppet for server configuration management.


Pre meeting food
----------------

Please join us informally for a bite to eat at Panera Bread before the
meeting, around 5:30 P.M.  Panera is in the 29th street mall, east of
Highway 36/28th street near Walnut.
