Open Source Unix Shell Virtualization Software

m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

OpenNode is a open source server virtualization solution providing easy to use bare-metal ISO installer. It's based on CentOS and supports both OpenVZ container-based virtualization and emerging KVM full virtualization technology on the same host.

LXCF (LXC Facility) is a tool that generates full OS environment as LXC virtual environment. http://lxcf.sourceforge.jp/index.html.en - It is based on libvirt-lxc - It can generate containers in a short time (in a few minutes each even if it is long). - It can manage a lot of containers. - It supports dynamic resource control of containers. - To use containers for a long term (a few years or more), you can update software on each container from the host. LXCF currently supports **Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 14.10, Fedora 21, Fedora 20 , Fedora 19, CentOS 7 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 **.

Manages a pool of zones that normal users can use. Zones (OpenSolaris containers) are efficiently cloned from a base zone so that building up and tearing down a devzone is fast (on the order of seconds).

VirtuoCP is a Virtual private server (VPS) control panel. It is designed to perform VPS operations in a GNU/Linux server having OpenVZ virtualization technology. VirtuoCP is a Free software distributed under GPL license.

The r4st ("Our Forest") project is a set of tools to assist with the rapid development of a database application. It uses shell scripts to drop/add Postgresql database tables/views with data loaded from sql and csv files. This process allows users to apply changes then re-build the system. It is essentially a customizable database regression system. The base schema and data module represent a plant database intended for educational and scientific usage.

vEMan - [v]Mware [E]SX [Man]ager provides a GUI for managing ESX servers natively from within your Linux desktop without the need to use Windows vSphere® anymore! Support vEMan development for v2.0 by gofundme! http://www.gofundme.com/vEMan Why I started vEMan? Because I hate it to start my Windows VM to manage ESX(i) servers ;o) vEMan is (maybe) not needed if you use vCenter 5.x: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2005377 --> vSphere >= v5 has a "web client" BUT keep in mind that there are caveats: Not all features are available in the web client AND it can connect to vCenters only (see: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1006095) - ESX(i) v3.x or 4.x? - v5.x - but no vCenter? - you want a native Linux vSphere client? Then try vEMan! ------- vEMan is not published or pronounced by VMware Inc. vEMan is an OpenSource project from a private person without any warranty or claim to bother VMware Inc.
