    • Xen Orchestra on Ubuntu 15.10 - Complete installation instructions

      This guide assumes you already have a running Ubuntu 15.10 system on which you want to configure Xen Orchestra, everything else is documented below.

      TL;DR: Run this command as root on Ubuntu 15.10...

      sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scottalanmiller/xenorchestra_installer/master/xo_install.sh | bash
      

      During the installation of your OS, you'll want to create a user outside of root, I made my user account xoadmin

      How to Install Xen Orchestra Source on Ubuntu 15.10 (self compiled) AKA MANUAL installation

      sudo apt-get install --yes nfs-common
      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 libpng-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 sample.config.yaml .xo-server.yaml
      nano .xo-server.yaml
      
      #Edit and uncomment it to have the right path to XO-Web, because XO-Server embeds an HTTP server (we assume that XO-Server and XO-Web are on the same directory). It's near the end of the file:
      #  mounts: '/': '../home/xoadmin/xo-web/dist/
      #  save and exit
      
      cd ~
      cd ../xo-web
      sudo npm i [email protected]
      sudo npm install
      sudo npm run build
      cd ../xo-server
      sudo npm start
      

      The scripted installation thanks to @scottalanmiller

      Github Repo

      Below is the preferred Installation method. It includes the systemctl xo-server.service written by @Danp

      sudo bash
      <password>
      sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scottalanmiller/xenorchestra_installer/master/xo_install.sh | bash
      <password>
      

      In your favorite web-browser go to this VM's IP Address, login with the default user: [email protected] and "admin" for the password. Update your Login Details!!

      Add your Xen Server(s) and go to town.

      Automatically Start XO at Boot - See this Post by @Danp Also copied below.

      Create a file in /etc/systemd/system/xo-server.service and enter the below into it.

      # systemd service for XO-Server.
      
       [Unit]
       Description= XO Server
       After=network-online.target
      
       [Service]
       WorkingDirectory=/opt/xo-server/
       ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/node ./bin/xo-server
       Restart=always
       SyslogIdentifier=xo-server
      
       [Install]
       WantedBy=multi-user.target
      

      Save the file, and then run to enable the service at start up.

      sudo systemctl enable xo-server.service
      

      To monitor the service you can then run

      journalctl -u xo-server -f -n 50
      

      For everyone on the newer releases of the "stable build" at least as of April-8-2016 there appears to be a bug when attempting to mount an NFS share; to resolve this follow the short process below

      • Login to your XO web console
      • Go to Backup
      • Select Remote Stores
      • Add your NFS Share, it'll likely fail out(unless it's been fixed since this posting)
      • Back on your XO console go to /tmp/xo-server/mounts
      • Run "ls" to see what mount is listed on your server
      • Next run "mount -t nfs nfs-server-ip-address:/path/to-share remote-#"

      Replacing nfs-server-ip-address with the actual IP of the remote server and the remote-# with whatever is listed on your console.

      Since Scott is our resident expert on said topic, I figure here would be as good a place as any to post SW articles regarding IT people who are in a position where they are unknowingly building an IPOD.

      @DustinB3403 said in Windows SDK to build an MSI:

      Hey all, long time since I've posted. To summarize the ask is anyone familiar enough with Windows SDK to build an MSI out of an EXE? Hoping for a crash course on this.

      The software vendor provides only loose instructions to building an MSI, but it's all for SCCM and not SDK.

      Thanks

      Why not convert the exi (as it is) to msi file without building it as an msi?
      There are wrappers and converters out there that will do it.

      Or are you looking for special customization of the msi files?

      The exe has no options at all, I did try a wrapper but it failed to work. So I figured might as well go down the road that's been paved..

      @Pete-S said in Windows 10 and RHEL 9 Dual Boot help.:

      @Saba said in Windows 10 and RHEL 9 Dual Boot help.:

      @Pete-S When i rebooted from Linux, I actually selected Windows 10 from the list of available operating systems

      Sorry, I can't help you. I stopped trying to get Windows and Linux to coexist on the same drive with dual boot because Windows would often cause some problem even when it's suppose to work.

      So when I need windows and linux on the same machine I do one of three things:

      • run the secondary OS in a VM and then both OSes can run at the same time
      • install each OS on it's own drive and swap drives as needed
      • have windows installed but boot linux from a USB drive without actually installing it

      Agreed, running a VM on either Windows or Linux is such an easy thing to do now that dual booting really doesn't make sense any more.

      This is old because everyone is super happy with Nvidia now.

      The reason people didn't like Nvidia in the past was an absolute refusal to allow their drivers into Linux. Last week they reversed this and have embraced the ecosystem. So they've totally done a 180.

      All about wine here.

      I just hope we get full on NVIDIA support. I know it will be a little while, but I'm glad to see some positive movement there.

      I avoid Wine if I can... If I can't, I hope I can get the app to work, lol.

      I've rarely had success with WINE as well. I'm sure it works for a lot of things but so much is listed as partially working or not...

      @WrCombs said in Application error -:

      it requires .net 4.0 or higher (4.9 is installed)

      .Net 4.0 is not .Net 4.9

      Are you sure it allows .Net 4.0 or higher?

      Pretty sure.. it wont let me install .net 4.0 because a higher version is already installed.

      This could be because someone updated to 4.9 the error code shows that the system cannot find a 4.0 module.
