      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
                                    Disk 0 VBD:
                                    uuid ( RO)             : 448065c5-2f48-38cc-fa73-a8eda1ab6e61
                                        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
                                         virtual-size ( RO): 21474836480

                                          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

                                          husky - git command not found, skipping install

                                            @jasonnix said in Tips on installing XO:

                                            git clone -b master https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra

                                            can you retry the git clone ? it looks like a github error
