-XenOrchestra (XO) is an open-source Web interface for XenServer (or XCP in this case) communicating through XAPI. It is made available as an "​appliance"​ for Xen, which means you can [[https://​xen-orchestra.com/​|download a fully configured VM from the XO website]]. You'll have to register first but there is a free version available for download (version is 3.as of this writing: 2015-03-05). Once downloaded, you'll have an .xva file that you need to transfer to your Xen Host. We'll use sftp to do this, creating a new directory on the host for .xva files in /​opt/​xen/​X-Local-XVA:​+XenOrchestra (XO) is an open-source Web interface for XenServer (or XCP in this case) communicating through XAPI.
