I agree, confusing.

• Would be easier the Starwars way:
  "Always two, there are. No more. No less. A Master and a pool"

@stormi
Ok, I stand corrected, but then its not only a XCP/Xencenter issue. xsconsole also clearly differentiates between being member of a pool or not ? I know that there is always a "master", but either of a stand alone server or of a pool.

I actually think that this is one of these situations that totally frustrates a trainer, where what the trainer see in all official training materials (Citrix) and what you actually see in the source code.

@stormi you know the code far better than me, so when you say it

• I will rephrase:
  Even though it looks like there is a difference in both XCP/Xencenter and xsconsole, there is actually no difference in the actual system behind the interfaces.
• As long as you work with XCP/XS consoles, my previous comment is what you see and experience when using these unsupported tools !
• If you use the servers for production, there is only ONE tool you can rely on .... Xen Orchestra .... (and the support is outstanding)
