Install the OpenQRM cloud computing platform In Debian
Introduction

OpenQRM is a Web-based open-source cloud computing and data center management platform that can be flexibly integrated with existing components in the enterprise data center.

It supports the following virtual technologies:

  • KVM
  • XEN
  • Citrix XenServer
  • VMWare ESX
  • LXC
  • OpenVZ

The hybrid cloud connector in openQRM supports a series of private or public cloud providers such as Amazon AWS, Eucalyptus, and OpenStack to expand your infrastructure as needed. It can also automatically perform resource allocation, virtualization, storage, and configuration management to ensure high availability. The integrated billing system's self-service cloud portal allows end users to request new servers and application stacks as needed.

OpenQRM has two different versions available:

  • Enterprise Edition
  • Community Edition

You can check the differences between the two versions here.

Install

Here we will install openQRM On Debian 7.5. Your server must meet at least the following requirements:

  • 1 GB RAM
  • 100 GB Hdd (hard drive)
  • Optional: Bios Virtualization (Intel CPUs VT or AMD CPUs AMD-V)

First, installmakeTo compile the openQRM source package:

  1. sudo apt-get update
  2. sudo apt-get upgrade
  3. sudo apt-get install make

Then, run the following command to install openQRM.

Download the latest available version from here:

  1. wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/openqrm/files/openQRM-Community-5.1/openqrm-community-5.1.tgz
  2. tar -xvzf openqrm-community-5.1.tgz
  3. cd openqrm-community-5.1/src/
  4. sudo make
  5. sudo make install
  6. sudo make start

During installation, you will be asked to update the filephp.ini

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_001

Enter the mysql root User Password.

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_002

Enter the password again:

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_003

Select the mail server configuration type:

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_004

If you are not sure how to choose, you can chooseLocal only. In our example, I chose the Local only option.

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_005

Enter your system email name and the Nagios administrator password.

~ Openqrm-community-5.1-src_007

Based on your network connection status, the above command may take a long time to download all the software packages required to run openQRM. Please be patient.

Finally, you will get the URL configured by openQRM and the related username and password.

~ _ 002

 

Configuration

After openQRM is installed, open your Web browser and go to URL: http: // ip-address/openqrm

For example, in my example, http: // 192.168.1.100/openqrm.

The default username and password are: openqrm/openqrm.

Mozilla Firefox_003

Select an Eni to use for the openQRM management network.

OpenQRM Server-Mozilla Firefox_004

Select a database type. In our example, I chose mysql.

OpenQRM Server-Mozilla Firefox_006

Now, configure the database connection and initialize openQRM. Here, I use openQRM as the database name, root as the user identity, and debian as the database password. Please be careful, you should enter the mysql root User Password that was previously created when openQRM was installed.

OpenQRM Server-Mozilla Firefox_012

Congratulations! OpenQRM has been installed and configured.

OpenQRM Server-Mozilla Firefox_013

 

Update openQRM

You can use the following command to update openQRM at any time:

  1. cd openqrm/src/
  2. make update

So far, we have only installed and configured openQRM on our Debian server. As for creating and running virtual machines and managing storage, for additional system integration and running of your own private cloud, I suggest you read the openQRM administrator guide.

That's all. Cheers! Happy weekend!
