ConVirt is an open-source virtualization management software that helps you manage virtual machines (VMs) on hypervisors such as KVM, Xen, VMware, and others. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of ConVirt on EndeavourOS latest.
Before we proceed, let's make sure that we have met the following prerequisites:
First, open the terminal on your EndeavourOS system and update the system to the latest packages.
sudo pacman -Syu
ConVirt requires several dependencies to be installed on your system before the installation. Let's install them first.
sudo pacman -S java-runtime-common libvirt libvirt-python python-paramiko python-libxml2
Now, let's download the ConVirt package from its official website.
wget http://www.convirture.com/repos/convirt.repo -P /etc/yum.repos.d/
Finally, install ConVirt by running the following command in the terminal.
sudo pacman -S convirt
Once the installation is complete, start the ConVirt services using these commands.
sudo systemctl start convirtd
sudo systemctl start convirt-webserver
Now, you can access the ConVirt web interface on your web browser by typing http://localhost:8000 in the address bar.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed ConVirt on your EndeavourOS system. Now, you can manage your virtual machines and hypervisors with ease. If you face any issues or errors during the installation, don't hesitate to refer to the ConVirt documentation for further assistance.
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!
