Deploy OpenNebula On-prem with miniONE

Mon, 17 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In this tutorial, we will install an OpenNebula Front-end in under ten minutes, using the miniONE installation tool provided by OpenNebula.

miniONE is a straightforward tool for deploying an evaluation version of OpenNebula. After running the miniONE script, all the OpenNebula services needed to use, manage and run a small cloud deployment will be installed on a single server.

This tutorial covers installation of a Front-end and KVM hypervisor node on a local machine with a screen attached. If you are installing miniONE on remote infrastructure you may need to use SSH and port forwarding to access user interfaces in your local browser, please refer to the port forwarding instructions before continuing.

Overview

In this tutorial, we will install an OpenNebula Front-end and a KVM hypervisor node on an AWS bare metal instance in under ten minutes using the miniONE installation tool from OpenNebula.

Deploy OpenNebula On-prem with an ISO

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Introduction

OpenNebula provides an ISO image for rapid deployment of an OpenNebula Front-end or processing node. The ISO installs a pre-configured deployment of OpenNebula Enterprise Edition running on a minimal installation of AlmaLinux 9. The ISO image can be flashed to bootable, removable media (such as a USB disk) for local installation or mapped via IPMI Virtual Media for remote hardware management.

Once the ISO has booted and finished setup, a pre-configured OpenNebula cloud will be ready for immediate use, installed on a single bare-metal server, complete with the OpenNebula Front-end server and a KVM hypervisor node. The same ISO can be used to install other KVM hypervisor nodes on the same infrastructure. The installed software includes a menu and a set of ansible playbooks to make the OpenNebula infrastructure management simpler.

A previous tutorial in this section details how to deploy OpenNebula on-premises with miniONE or with the PoC ISO. This page provides:

An overview of the resources automatically created during that installation
An example of what you can do with this type of installation – in this case, installing a Virtual Machine from the OpenNebula Marketplace

Installed Resources

After following the instructions described in Deploy OpenNebula On-premises with miniONE or in the PoC ISO installation guide, the following resources are already created and configured:
