Monitor Xen Hypervisor

Votes:

I'd like to monitor my Citrix Xen hypervisor and see its CPU usage and memory usage. We have that ability for VMWare through the VMWare ESX monitor, but is it possible to do something equivalent with Xen?

best regards.

Thank you!

The best hint I've found so far for Xen Server is this: http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX122337

Seems like it's not particularly easy to enable SNMP directly on the box.

Ideally, I'm looking to find out how much CPU and memory is being used by a particular hypervisor so I can know which units are overloaded and which have room for more VMs.
