XEN supports a wide range of guest operating systems including Windows?, Linux?, Solaris?, and various versions of the BSD operating systems.
SolusVM currently only supports Linux Xen guest (CentOS, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Slackware).
Operating System .............: CentOS 5 (32 or 64 bit)
Processor.....................: Dual Core or higher
Memory .......................: 4GB or higher
Hard Disk ....................: 100GB or higher
Example Partition Layout .....:
/ 80GB + (NOTE: XEN HVM iso's will be stored here)
LVM rest of drive (this must be an '''EMPTY''' logical volume group (VG))
SWAP (4GB max)
In SSH as root do the following:
wget http://soluslabs.com/installers/solusvm/install
chmod 755 install
./install
Select option 2 then option 2, this will now install a SolusVM slave with Xen support.
Once the installer has completed, follow the instructions given, to boot into the new Xen kernel and setup the SolusVM kernel links and ramdisk.
Login to your SolusVM master and select "Nodes" and click "Add Node".
This guide will help you to add a node to your SolusVM management panel.
Before reading this guide, you will need to have installed SolusVM as a slave and collected the relevant information during the installation. If you haven't done so already, follow my guide here on how to do so: Coming Shortly!
Hover over "Nodes" and click "Add Node".
Here you can enter a name for your node so that you can recognise it easily. Some use "Node1" or some use "Server 1", however, you can use whatever you please
Here, you need to enter the IP address of the slave server you just made.
Here, you need to enter the Hostname of the slave server you just made.
Here, you need to enter the SSH port of the slave server you just made.
Here, you need the enter the identification key that the SolusVM slave installer gave you.
Here, you need to enter the identification password the SolusVM installer gave you.
Here, you can enter the country where the server is located.
Here, you can enter the City where the server is located.
Here, you will need to enter the name of your Volume Group, you can find this by running "vgdisplay" in SSH on the Slave without the quotes.
That's it! Done. The management server will now attempt to connect to the slave and verify any needed data such as OpenVZ installation and the correct variables for the SolusVM slave installation.
At the bottom of the form you will need to specify the LVM partition name i.e: /dev/vps can be entered as vps, you don't need to specify the full path.
Once you submit the server details to SolusVM, it will check connections and if the LVM exists so make sure you have all the details correct.
SolusVM will support multiple LVM partitions over the coming months.
SolusVM requires templates to be formated in a certain way. This formatting is essential and must be followed!
Template format:
distro-version-arch-anything.tar.gz
i.e: centos-5.3-x86-base.tar.gz
Currently supported linux distributions are : CentOS, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Slackware Only XEN HVM does support Windows, if XEN HVM doesn't works make sure that you've got a virtualization technique and this is enabled (look into the bios).
The slave installation will install a standard CentOS 5 template on the slave but not on the master. You can download this template from here: http://files.soluslabs.com/solusvm/install/centos-5.3-x86.tar.gz and save it to the master template store: /home/solusvm/xen/template.

1:创建PV(物理分区)
假设我的磁盘有一部分没有划分的分区:
fdisk /dev/sda

从上面看,sda5和sda6是新创建的分区,ID号为8e(也就是 linux LVM)
现在将新创建的分区修改他们的系统ID
[root@oracle ~]# fdisk /dev/sda

使分区信息生效:
[root@oracle ~]# partprobe
[root@oracle ~]# reboot
创建PV(物理卷)
[root@oracle ~]# pvcreate /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6
Physical volume "/dev/sda5" successfully created
Physical volume "/dev/sda6" successfully created
创建物理卷组rootvg,
并把/dev/sda5 /dev/sda6加入其中:
[root@oracle ~]# vgcreate rootvg /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6
Volume group "rootvg" successfully created
在物理卷组上创建一个100MB的逻辑卷lv1:
[root@oracle ~]# lvcreate -L 100M -n lv1 rootvg
Logical volume "lv1" created
格式化分区:
[root@oracle ~]# mkfs.ext3 /dev/rootvg/lv1

将lv1挂载到/mnt/lvm下

动态加大VG:
这里我们新增一个PV并加入VG
1 fdisk增加一个(0x)8e标志的分区/dev/hda7
2 vgextend rootvg /dev/hda7
好了,vg增大了
缩小逻辑卷组VG:
1 搬移PV中的资料(只限于同一VG中)
#pvmove [-n ] []
如
#pvmove /dev/hda5 /dev/hda6
将VG中pv hda5的内容搬移到hda6中
pvmove /dev/hda5(也可以这样,lvm决定hda2的内容被复制到哪里)
2 vgreduce rootvg /dev/hda5
把vg hda5移除
5) 如何删除逻辑卷/逻辑卷组
删除VG流程:
1 umount /挂接点
2 lvremove /dev/rootvg/lv1
移除逻辑卷,这里是lv1
3 vgchange -a n rootvg(关闭rootvg)
4 vgremove rootvg
移除rootvg
