Alteon VA for Open Xen Installation and Configuration
Xen is a paravirtualization tool that lets you run multiple virtual machines on one physical machine.
It is available on a wide number of platforms.
Xen refers to virtual machines as domains. Domains are numbered with the first domain being
domain 0, the second domain 1, and so on. Domain 0 (Dom0) is the domain created when the
machine is booted. Additional domains (called DomUs) are created using the xm create command
from within Domain 0. Additional domains can also be created automatically at boot time by using
the xendomains service.
Installation Prerequisites
Fully functioning infrastructure, including:
•
Installed Open Xen hypervisor
•
Alteon VA for Open Xen package from Radware
Note:
No storage is necessary. This is performed on the host. This means that you deploy
Alteon VA for Open XEN on a host that is not the host where you are running the install
script.
Deploying the Package
1. Unpack the Alteon VA package by opening the Alteon .tar file.
2. Run the setup script from
./install/bin/setup.
