The ovs contained within XenServer 6.5 is capable of supporting VxLAN, but
as Adrian stated the control plane is missing. Prior XenServer versions
don't have an ovs capable of VxLAN. I *think* Contrail also supports
VxLAN, but I don't know what its status is wrt XenServer 6.5

But Nuage is commercial one right.

Not sure if I remember correct or not, but I think Nuage is VXLAN-based and
works with XenServer.

I think that the issue is with needing a controller. Unfortunately you can't
just replace VLANs with VXLANs unless there's some form of control plane.
You can do this in a distributed manner using broadcast to multicast
mechanisms but this AFAIK is not implemented in Openvswitch. I'm not quite
sure
