Somebody from Citrix/CloudStack can correct me here but as I understand it 8 is a rule of thumb and not a strict law. That being said, XenServer (and XCP) are limited to 16 hosts per resource pool -- and that _is_ a hard limit. Other limits are available from here: http://www.citrix.com/site/resources/dynamic/salesdocs/Citrix_XenServer_6_Configuration_Limits.pdf

I am wondering why this is the case because as a test I added 10 hosts to a pool and Cloudstack is managing them without any issues that I see. Any further clarification on this issue would be greatly appreciated. -- Lucas Hughes Cloud Engineer Ecommerce Inc
