ConVirt is a free and open-source virtual management platform that allows you to manage multiple virtualization technologies including KVM, Xen, and VMware from a single web interface. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing ConVirt on OpenSUSE latest version.
Before you start installing ConVirt, make sure that your system meets the following requirements:
To add ConVirt repository to your OpenSUSE, follow the steps below:
sudo zypper addrepo -f http://www.convirture.com/repos/opensource/openSUSE_Leap_15.3_ConVirt.repo
sudo zypper refresh
Once the ConVirt repository is added and the list is updated, you can install ConVirt by running the following command:
sudo zypper install convirt-opensource
After installing ConVirt, start the ConVirt service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start convirt-opensource.service
Once the ConVirt service is started, you can access the ConVirt web interface by opening a web browser and entering the following URL:
https://your-server-ip:8443
Replace your-server-ip
with the IP address of your OpenSUSE machine.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install ConVirt on OpenSUSE latest version. You can use ConVirt to manage multiple virtualization technologies from a single 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!
