Yes, I am able to start a vm with libvirt and Xen, but I've not tried a xml based on the one openstack generates. I will see if I can try tomorrow to run a separate VM modifying OS's libvirt xml.
I really need to use libvirt due to the live migration support, thus XCP or XenServer + xenapi would not work for me. Also I have a very specific environment I am trying to include openstack that I can't change right now. Also that is a good way to test Openstack and Xen integration outside XenServer.
