        Thanks @lawrencesystems.
        If I want to clone it manually, then which directory is OK? For example, "/home", "/tmp", etc.

          If you are going to do it manually then choose whatever you want, but /tmp might not make much sense to put something important.

            Hi @lawrencesystems,
            Thanks again.
            I want to clone XO under the /usr/local/src directory, but this directory requires root access. Is there a problem if I do this with the sudo command?

              @jasonnix There is a paragraph about sudo in the install : https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/installation.html#sudo

                At this point I'm not sure if its intentional idiocy or not. Xen Orchestra does not get installed within XCP-ng's Dom0, it can be installed as a VM that is running as a guest on XCP-ng or on a separate environment entirely.

                Read the documentation, install Ubuntu or Debian and then you install XO as an application on that system.

                  Hello,
                  I tried to install XO, but I got the following error:

                  $ sudo yarn

                    @jasonnix Hi !

                    Can you do a df -h instead of -i ?

                        @jasonnix Indeed 😅

                        You can deploy a XOA and resize your VM disk with the GUI (the VM need to be shutdown), and then, resize your FS in the VM.

                          @AtaxyaNetwork, I prefer CLI for now.

                            @jasonnix Why not using XOA ? It's really simpler than the CLI...

                            Anyway, you can shut down the VM and do:

                            xe vdi-resize uuid=<VDI of your VM> disk-size=XXGiB

                              Shouldn't I create a hard disk first and then add it to the virtual machine and then use this hard disk to add space?

                                @jasonnix No need to create a new disk, you can directly resize the existing disk 🙂

                                  I did:

                                  # xe vm-list
                                  uuid ( RO)           : bdd9b58c-06b1-3f3c-792b-72287bd73d0b
                                       name-label ( RW): XO
                                      power-state ( RO): halted
                                  

                                  Then, I did:

                                  # xe vdi-resize uuid=bdd9b58c-06b1-3f3c-792b-72287bd73d0b disk-size=20GiB
                                  The uuid you supplied was invalid.
                                  type: VDI
                                  uuid: bdd9b58c-06b1-3f3c-792b-72287bd73d0b
                                  

                                  What is wrong?

                                    You need to supply the virtual disk's UUID, not the VM's UUID.

                                      @jasonnix You need the VDI UUID, not the VM UUID.

                                      For example:

                                      [12:42 Delirium ~]# xe vm-disk-list uuid=a0a05fc9-e454-181e-cff2-ed3c4010651f # <- VM UUID

                                          vm-name-label ( RO): XOA
                                             userdevice ( RW): 0
                                      
                                      
                                      Disk 0 VDI:
                                      uuid ( RO)             : d6354121-a3c6-4143-9cab-d65d4d8df769 # You need this one for the resize
                                             name-label ( RW): xoa root
                                          sr-name-label ( RO): sdc

                                            Hello,
                                            I tried to use Git to clone the repository, but I got the following error:

                                            $ sudo git clone -b master https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra
                                            Cloning into 'xen-orchestra'...

                                            I changed some Git settings:

                                            $ git config --global http.postBuffer 4096M
                                            $ git config --global http.maxRequestBuffer 100M
                                            $ git config --global core.compression 0
                                            

                                            But it didn't matter. I downloaded the repository manually, but when installing I got the following error:

                                            $ sudo yarn
                                            yarn install v1.22.21
