XtreemFS is a distributed file system that allows users to access and share files across multiple servers and storage systems. Here's a step-by-step guide to installing XtreemFS on macOS.
Before installing XtreemFS on macOS, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
Open your web browser and navigate to the XtreemFS website.
Click on the Download tab and download the latest version of XtreemFS as a .tar.gz file.
Once the download has finished, extract the .tar.gz file.
In your terminal, navigate to the extracted folder and run the following command to build the Docker image:
docker build -t xtreemfs-server .
Once the image has been built, start Docker by running the following command:
docker run --privileged -p 32636:32636/udp -p 32638:32638 xtreemfs-server
The XtreemFS server is now running on your machine. You can access it using your web browser by opening http://<your IP address>:30638.
To connect to the XtreemFS server and upload files, you need to install the XtreemFS client. You can find the download link for the XtreemFS client on the XtreemFS website.
That's it! You have successfully installed XtreemFS on macOS and are ready to start sharing files across multiple servers and storage 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!
