      Actually openSUSE is supported by the installer script so the standard method should work.

      Hi, I tried that and I get this error:

      I'm using openSUSE Leap instead of SUSE Enterprise Linux which works with the installer, but after getting SLES Xen tools it still reports I have no tools and no icon shows up on my VM list.

      xo-server 5.50.0
      Xen Orchestra server
      xo-web 5.50.0
      Xen Orchestra web client

      Thank you both so far for the help ā˜ŗ

                  @olivierlambert It wasn't but I had reinstalled it just now and this is the output:

                  It seems to changed the memory to dynamic on the XO Web but no icon still on the panel

                    The name of the service is xe-linux-distribution.service if the installation script detected systemd, else /etc/init.d/xe-linux-distribution.

                      I've installed xen-tools manually on openSuSE 15.1
                      can start manually

                      systemctl start xe-linux-distribution.service

                      but can't enable and add to startupscript

                      systemctl enable xe-linux-distribution.service
xe-linux-distribution.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable xe-linux-distribution
/sbin/insserv: No such file or directory

                      Should I create systemctl startup script from scratch or possible can I copy somewhere?

                        First I'd try to see why it says that xe-linux-distribution.service is not a native service. Where's that file located and what does it contain?

                          @stormi It's located on /etc/init.d/xe-linux-distribution
                          and looks like it's SysV service, not systemctl, because I can not enable

                            Maybe /sbin/insserv is located elsewhere and needs a symlink, or maybe it's included in a package that you haven't installed?

                                  Could you also check with the xe vm-param-list uuid=YOUR_VM_UUID command?
