OVERVIEW OF KVM-CRM

FELIX KVM-based Compute Resource Manager (KVM-CRM) is a KVM-based virtual machine (VM) management software for testbed management. It based on OFELIA Control Framework (OCF). It controls experimentation life-cycle; reservation, instantiation, configuration, monitoring and uninistantiation.

KVM-CRM replaces some of components of XEN-based OCF to use KVM. So the KVM-CRM package provides only a VT manager for KVM (KVM-VT) and KVM-based OXAD (KVM-OXAD). KVM-VT is a master server of KVM-CRM and KVM-OXAD is a KVM agent for virtualization purposes.
