Xen Orchestra on Ubuntu 15.10 - Complete installation instructions

DustinB3403

Build should be back on track on next-release branch.

From the individual folders of xo-server and xo-web

git checkout next-release

git fetch; git pull

If you want to stick on stable, a workaround would be npm i [email protected]

DustinB3403

At @olivier this is what I'm getting now, attempting this install.

scottalanmiller

Same here, even after installing GULP.

DustinB3403

@scottalanmiller Are you running stable as well, or "next release" ?

I'm running from your how-to

olivier

That's because the install process went bad, due to lodash issue (we reported it here)

So before the npm i, do a npm i [email protected].

DustinB3403

Yeah I got it sorted, getting the updated guide sorted out

Thank you

you are the man, you know that! Not only reporting on your own pages, but coming here and reporting as well... that's just awesome!

Okay, here we go. I took @DustinB3403's working process and turned it into a script. I'm going to blow everything away and see if this works from scratch. Just take this, copy into a file like /opt/xoinstaller.sh, chmod +x /opt/xoinstaller.sh and then run it /opt/xoinstaller.sh

#!/bin/bash
cd /opt
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_5.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install --yes nodejs
curl -o /usr/local/bin/n https://raw.githubusercontent.com/visionmedia/n/master/bin/n
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/n
n stable
node -v
npm -v
sudo apt-get install --yes build-essential redis-server libpng12-dev git python-minimal
git clone -b stable https://github.com/vatesfr/xo-server
git clone -b stable https://github.com/vatesfr/xo-web
cd xo-server
sudo npm install && npm run build
cp xo-server/sample.config.yaml xo-server/.xo-server.yaml
sed /mounts/a\\"    '/': '/opt/xo-web/dist'" xo-server/.xo-server.yaml
cd /opt/xo-web
sudo npm i [email protected]
sudo npm install
sudo npm run build
cd /opt/xo-server
sudo npm start

The lodash specific stuff won't be necessary after the 4.12

scottalanmiller

Boom, the script goes from bare Ubuntu 15.10 install to this in one command...

scottalanmiller

And that one command is "xoinstall.sh", before someone points out that there are lots of commands. It's a single scripted command

That's a good point

Can you let us know when it's fixed so we can update the script?

olivier

We now have XO running on our Scale cluster

Your using XO to manage the Xen or XenServer installs on the HP servers, right? Wonder how compatible XO would be with Scale, if at all.

XO doesn't have to be compatible with the hardware, the OS of the VM handles that.

Which this is running on Ubuntu 15.10

Alex Sage

Keep in mind, I don't think he is using it to manage the Scale cluster, I think it was just easy to install it there

@olivier how well does XO work with APC Powerchute?

Because, that is my next goal. Get my VM's and Hosts to gracefully shutdown during a power-outage.
