OpenNebula is a cloud computing platform that allows you to manage virtual machines, storage, and network in a centralized way. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of OpenNebula on Fedora Server Latest.
First, you need to enable the OpenNebula repository in Fedora. To do this, create a new file under "/etc/yum.repos.d/" with any name followed by ".repo" extension. For example, create a file named "opennebula.repo". Open the new file with any text editor and add the following content:
[opennebula]
name=opennebula
baseurl=https://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/6.0/Fedora/29/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/repo.key
Save and exit the file.
Now, we can install OpenNebula using the yum package manager. Run the following command as a root user to install it:
sudo dnf install opennebula-server opennebula-sunstone opennebula-ruby opennebula-gate opennebula-flow rubygem-json
The installation process may take some time, depending on your internet speed.
After the installation, the configuration files of OpenNebula will be located in the "/etc/one/" directory. The main configuration file is named "oned.conf". You can edit this file using any text editor to change the configurations.
Now, we can start the OpenNebula services using the systemctl command. Use the following commands to start and enable the services:
sudo systemctl start opennebula
sudo systemctl enable opennebula
sudo systemctl start opennebula-sunstone
sudo systemctl enable opennebula-sunstone
OpenNebula Sunstone is a web interface that allows you to manage the OpenNebula services. By default, the Sunstone service runs on port 9869. You can access it using your web browser by visiting http://
You have successfully installed OpenNebula on Fedora Server Latest. You can now manage virtual machines, storage, and network in a centralized way using the OpenNebula Sunstone web interface.
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!
