XtreemFS is a distributed file system that allows you to store and share large amounts of data across multiple servers in a scalable and fault-tolerant manner. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of XtreemFS on Debian Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have:
First, add XtreemFS repository to your system. You can do this by creating and editing a new file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xtreemfs.list:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xtreemfs.list
Add the following content:
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/xtreemfs/Debian_<version>_amd64/ /
Replace <version> with your Debian version. For example, if you have Debian 10, replace it with buster.
Save and exit the file.
Next, you need to add the repository key to authenticate packages.
wget -qO - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/xtreemfs/Debian_<version>_amd64/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -
Again, replace <version> with your Debian version.
After adding the repo and key, you need to update the package list to reflect the changes.
sudo apt update
Finally, install XtreemFS using the apt package manager.
sudo apt install xtreemfs-server xtreemfs-client
This command will install both the server and the client packages.
Once XtreemFS is installed, you can configure it to suit your needs. Start by editing the xtreemfs-server configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/xos/xtreemfs/default.properties
Make sure to set the following properties:
dir_service.host = localhost
dir_service.port = 32638
Save and exit the file.
You can now start the server using the following command:
sudo /etc/init.d/xtreemfs-server start
The server should start without any errors. You can verify the server status using:
sudo /etc/init.d/xtreemfs-server status
Congratulations! You have successfully installed XtreemFS on Debian Latest. You can now start using XtreemFS to store and share large amounts of data across multiple servers in a scalable and fault-tolerant manner.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
