The Open Nebula driver has been unmaintained since it was first introduced. The only commits have been for tree-wide cleanups. It also has a major design flaw, in that it only knows about guests that it has created itself, which makes it of very limited use. Discussions wrt evolution of the VMWare ESX driver, concluded that it should limit itself to single-node ESX operation and not try to manage the multi-node architecture of VirtualCenter. Open Nebula is a cluster like Virtual Center, not a single node system, so the same reasoning applies. The DeltaCloud project includes an Open Nebula driver and is a much better fit architecturally, since it is explicitly targetting the distributed multihost cluster scenario. Thus this patch deletes the libvirt Open Nebula driver with the recommendation that people use DeltaCloud for managing it instead. * configure.ac: Remove probe for xmlrpc & --with-one arg * daemon/Makefile.am, daemon/libvirtd.c, src/Makefile.am: Remove ONE driver build * src/opennebula/one_client.c, src/opennebula/one_client.h, src/opennebula/one_conf.c, src/opennebula/one_conf.h, src/opennebula/one_driver.c, src/opennebula/one_driver.c: Delete files * autobuild.sh, libvirt.spec.in, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Remove build rules for Open Nebula * docs/drivers.html.in, docs/sitemap.html.in: Remove reference to OpenNebula * docs/drvone.html.in: Delete file

<h1>Internal drivers</h1>

<p>
|
|
The libvirt public API delegates its implementation to one or
|
|
more internal drivers, depending on the <a href="uri.html">connection URI</a>
|
|
passed when initializing the library. There is always a hypervisor driver
|
|
active, and if the libvirt daemon is available there will usually be a
|
|
network and storage driver active.
