 We want to use XenServer (iscsi SAN storage) by Citrix and FreeBSD.
 We've got a testing setup in place, so we can play around with the
 features.  FreeBSD runs and installs quite well within this environment,
 along with Linux distros, Windows etc.  There is something called
 XenTools (commercial software from Citrix), amongst other things its
 main job is to facilitate VM migration between nodes when using XenServer
 (it is awesome, no ping drops, at worst higher latency for two pings
 and then it's done).  This runs on Linux ... but there is no FreeBSD
 version.

Is this part of the XenServer-Essentials package?  Can you point to a
URL that describes XenTools in more detail?

Thanks,
Justin

It is available on the installation CD, as a mountable ISO once the VM 
is installed. (Downloads for Citrix Xen are here:
