Question about using HUB as a XO built from sources
-
Hi!
I'm currently using XO Built from sources in my homelab to run a few VM's. Working great! But I want to test a deployment of a kubernetes cluster in my homelab before using it at work.
I've seen that the easiest way to deploy a K8s cluster in XCP-ng would be to use the Hub recipes, but I see that the hub is only available for XOA (not for xo built from sources).My question is. Is the Hub available for the XOA Free version? Am I able to use the XOA free account at the same time as XO built from sources? I'm a bit confused here.
If not, any other recommendation to easily deply a kubernetes cluster? 1 master, 2-3 nodes is enough. Just to avoid having to create the VM's myself from scratch
Thanks!

Hi,
Yes, the hub is available with XOA Free. It's not available on the sources, because the hub is an extra service that is hosted on our servers, it's not directly related to XO features.

@olivierlambert Thanks for the answer!
So, could I maybe deploy a XOA Free VM, use the hub to deploy the recipe, and then switch back to my normal VM with XO from sources to manage everything? or does the HUB recipe require some sort of GUI that would not be available in the XO from sources?

Depends on what you expect from "manage", but once a template is deployed (or recipe applied), it's all regular VMs.
