But why not give us the appliance?

If you don't trust yourself to be able to build it and have time to test it & ensure that it works, then use one of the VMs that our guys have created for it.

They're a business, they want to make money.

Oh, I do trust myself, but the XOA seems so much easier.

You pay for convenience... that's true in a lot of industries including IT.

Updates to node?

Don't update until they are ready for the new version. Check your OS to see if it provides a supported version that is compatible and then it shouldn't be an issue.

Well of course, that's the point of it. All of the work, even of an install, done for you PLUS an easy, predicable install for them to support. Easier but not free or as flexible.

@scottalanmiller I assume CentOS 7 would be a good choice?
-
@DustinB3403 has a guide on here of how to install it.

So here is my complaint and then I am done bitching. (Well at least about this.)
They offer 2 free versions, and this isn't clear on there website.
</rant>
-
Question, does the paid one include the ability to backup?
Does anyone see this like VMWare? Most features included, but a critical one isn't to push you to a paid version? lol Not complaining, just observing.

That's what brought them here, we were all confused about that.

@Dashrender https://xen-orchestra.com/pricing
Yes, for $70/month. Can't afford this personally.

Except it IS all free. All of it. That's the difference.
VMware is almost nothing free. Literally, just about nothing. Both XenServer and Xen Orchestra are both completely free. Every feature.
With XenServer, there isn't even someone to buy more features from. The Linux Foundation doesn't have any sort of sales system.

No more bitching.... This is how I setup the XO application on a Ubuntu 15.10 VM.
100% functional, 100% free.

Do we know what distro the appliance runs on? Maybe I should use the same one?
