OpenNode is a cloud platform for managing and scaling virtual machines. Fedora CoreOS is a lightweight operating system designed for running container workloads. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install OpenNode on Fedora CoreOS.
Before installing any software, it is recommended to update your system packages. Run the following command to update Fedora CoreOS:
sudo rpm-ostree update
OpenNode is not available in the official Fedora CoreOS repository. We will add OpenNode's repository to our system using the following commands:
sudo dnf install wget
sudo wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ \
http://download.opennodecloud.com/pub/yum-repo/opennode.repo
OpenNode has some dependencies that need to be installed before installation. Run the following command to install these packages:
sudo dnf install -y \
tar \
kernel-devel \
make \
gcc \
python3 \
python3-setuptools \
python3-devel \
libvirt \
libvirt-python \
openssl-devel
Run the following command to install the OpenNode package:
sudo dnf install -y opennode-xxx.rpm
Replace xxx with the version number you want to install (for example, opennode-3.0.0).
After installation, you need to start the OpenNode service. Run the following command to start the service:
sudo systemctl start opennode
Finally, you can check the OpenNode status to verify that it is installed correctly. Run the following command:
sudo opennode status
If OpenNode is installed correctly, you will see the output as follows:
OpenNode daemon is running.
Listen: https://0.0.0.0:8080
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install OpenNode on Fedora CoreOS. Once you have OpenNode installed and running, you can start using it to manage and scale your virtual machines.
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!
