Accessible with xenapi://hostname:port/ I'm not sure that 'suspend'/'resume' map to "managed save". suspend/resume are basically just pausing CPUs afaik, and this is already done in libvirt APIs. Managed save is about saving guest state in a standard location and automagically restoring from that upon guest boot. > I also will need to look at snapshots next: Has someone already investigated > adding snapshot support to Xen(-3.4)?
