OpenNebula is an open-source cloud management platform that allows the management of virtual machines, storage, and network resources. This tutorial aims to guide you on how to install OpenNebula on Windows 10.
Before we begin with the installation, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
Download the OpenNebula binary package from the official website http://opennebula.org/downloads/.
Extract the downloaded package to a new folder. For example, we will create a new folder named C:\opennebula.
Open PowerShell by pressing the Win + X keys and choosing "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" from the context menu.
Navigate to the OpenNebula folder by running the following command:
cd C:\opennebula
Run the following command to start the OpenNebula installation:
.\install.bat -d -v
Note: The -d flag indicates that we want to use the default options during installation, and the -v flag enables verbose output.
Wait for the installation to complete. Once done, you will see a message stating "OpenNebula services have been installed successfully."
Verify that OpenNebula is running by executing the following command:
oneuser show
This command will display a list of users in the OpenNebula database in JSON format.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed OpenNebula on your Windows 10 computer. You can now start managing your virtual machines, storage, and network resources with OpenNebula.
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!
