Xen Orchestra is the open source web interface for XCP-ng. One app for your whole virtualization stack, with no agents on your VMs, no vendor lock-in and no per-socket licensing.
Same open source platform every time. Pick the path that matches your environment. From a guided one-click deploy to building it yourself from source.
Full install guideThe fastest way to get Xen Orchestra Appliance (XOA) running: a guided web form talks directly to your XCP-ng or XenServer host to import and configure the appliance.
SSH into your XCP-ng or XenServer host and run the deploy script, it downloads XOA, asks for network settings (DHCP by default) and imports it to your default storage repository.
Grab the XVA file, import it with the XAPI CLI and boot it, useful when your host has no direct internet access for the deploy script.

Hosts running XCP-ng 8.3 or
later serve XO Lite out of the
box. Open https://<your-host-ip> in a
browser, log in with the host's root credentials, and use its
built-in Deploy XOA action.
Clone the public repository and build Xen Orchestra from source. Same open source platform, but this path isn't commercial or packaged:
master and rebuild yourself.
The same XO, with a safety net. VATES VMS bundles Xen Orchestra with XCP-ng, 24/7 support delivering up to 1-hour response times for critical issues and managed updates across the full stack.
Agentless by design. Nothing to install on your hosts or your VMs. From one lab host to hundreds across multiple sites.
Everything you do to a VM or a host, from one place.
Backups that get checked, not just scheduled.
Give teams their own resources without giving them the keys.
Anything you can click, you can script.
xo-cliKnow what your infrastructure is doing, right now and last month.
Already on every XCP-ng host, nothing to install.

Reliability improvements to Rolling Pool Update, more workflows in XO 6, new Host actions in the REST API, refreshed docs.vates.tech.
Scoped Storage and Network admin roles, VM export in XO 6, automatic XOA safety snapshots before updates and a new Storage tab in XO Lite.
