Install the Management Server on the First Host

Install the Management Server on the First Host The first step in installation, whether you are installing the Management Server on one host or many, is to install the software on a single node. If you are planning to install the Management Server on multiple nodes for high availability, do not proceed to the additional nodes yet. That step will come later. The &PRODUCT; Management server can be installed using either RPM or DEB packages. These packages will depend on everything you need to run the Management server.

Install on CentOS/RHEL We start by installing the required packages: yum install cloudstack-management

Install on Ubuntu apt-get install cloudstack-mangagement

Downloading vhd-util This procedure is required only for installations where XenServer is installed on the hypervisor hosts. Before setting up the Management Server, download vhd-util from vhd-util. If the Management Server is RHEL or CentOS, copy vhd-util to /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/xenserver. If the Management Server is Ubuntu, copy vhd-util to /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/xenserver.
