Installing Mesos on NetBSD

In this tutorial, we will be walking through the steps to install Mesos on NetBSD. Mesos is a distributed systems kernel that provides efficient resource isolation and sharing across distributed applications or frameworks.

Prerequisites

Before you can install Mesos, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

• NetBSD system with sudo access
• An active internet connection
• CMake version 2.8.9 or higher
• GCC version 4.8 or higher

Install Dependencies

Before we can install Mesos, we need to install some dependencies required for the build process. Run the following commands to install the needed dependencies:

sudo pkgin update
sudo pkgin install curl git perl openssl pkg-config autoconf automake libtool cmake gcc48

Download and Build Mesos

After installing the dependencies, we can now proceed to download and build Mesos:

1. Download the source code:

   git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/mesos.git
   

2. Move into the Mesos directory:

   cd mesos
   

3. Configure the build:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   

4. Build Mesos:

   make
   

5. After the build finishes, you can install Mesos:

   sudo make install
   

Start and Test Mesos

Once Mesos is installed, you can start and test if it's working properly:

1. Start Mesos Master:

   ./sbin/mesos-master.sh --ip=127.0.0.1 --work_dir=/var/lib/mesos --log_dir=/var/log/mesos
   

2. Open another terminal and start Mesos Agent:

   ./sbin/mesos-agent.sh --master=127.0.0.1:5050 --work_dir=/var/lib/mesos --log_dir=/var/log/mesos
   

3. Open your web browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:5050. You should see the Mesos web interface.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Mesos on NetBSD. You can now start using it to manage your distributed systems.

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!
