It has the following features: * Install, import, start, stop and reboot instances safely (guest OS needs to be controlled independently) * Clone, backup/export, delete stopped instances 100% safely * Keep track of all your instances on one screen * All transactions that change instance state are password protected at all critical stages * Support for a growing number of useful instances and applications What is new since PetiteCloud 0.1.19: * Improved stability, robustness, and user friendliness * Instance import/export, clone, and reboot * FreeBSD port files improved and resubmitted to -ports-bugs@ Minimum System Requirements: * 2+ (3+ is preferable) cores (Any Intel that supports EPT) * 4GB RAM * 100 GB of free disk space (for instances; PetiteCloud itself needs less than 200KB) * FreeBSD 10.0 * 1 physical NIC Known bugs due to be fixed in PetiteCloud 0.2.1: * The reported amount of resources used is inconsistent after an instance is stopped. (Actual resource amounts are not affected.) * Better "please wait" functionality on the web UI. (Command line UI is not effected.) * If the user clicks "install" and then tries to back out (by clicking the "back" button), then the Unix account used for installing instances gets locked and requires manual unlocking. We would like to thank everyone on -virtualization@, especially the bhyve team, for all their assistance with helping us understand bhyve.
