  1. Budget at least 4 machines to your set-up. Install XenServer (6+) on one machine to host QACloud VM and management server. This machine is required to have internet access.
  2. Set-up and configure IPMI network and enable hosts for IPMI. This link may be useful http://stuff.mit.edu/afs/athena/dept/cron/documentation/dell-server-admin/en/DRAC_5/racugc1j.htm
  3. Set-up private switch for hosts on eth0. Reference config is available here
