hi everybody,

I am a newbie and can you tell me that is it possible if both kvm and vmware hosts existing in one opennebula system ? or only one kind of hypervisor like kvm or vmware or xen ?

i want to deploy opennebula and vmware 6 but there is not a quickstarts in version 4.14. is it ok if i follows step by step in this guide (opennebula 4.10 and esxi 5.1) [http://docs.opennebula.org/4.10/design\_and\_installation/quick\_starts/qs\_centos\_vmware.html](http://docs.opennebula.org/4.10/design_and_installation/quick_starts/qs_centos_vmware.html)

Thanks.

Hi

When the upcoming 5.0, vmware is only supported through vcenter. And yes  
you can have several vcenter clusters along with KVM hypervisors in the  
same opennebula system.

Cheers
