Sorry, wasn't clear... The primary point I was trying to get across  
was that the tools used for both xen and kvm management are one in the  
same.

I know pretty much everyone ships the libvirt/virt-manager stuff for  
kvm management, but I don't know what they all used for xen going way  
back. Red Hat's xen stuff has always been handled by libvirt/virt- 
manager. It was a design goal from the outset to make libvirt and  
friends hypervisor-agnostic so people weren't tied to a particular  
hypervisor.
