I built a couple of XCP servers and they only used around 5GB of the hard drives. I want to add things like gcc and I''m out of space. Can I expand the XCP partition? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

You would need to run a Linux live cd and expand the partition using something like gparted+resize2fs But why do you want to put gcc on XCP? Spin up a VM and do your compiling _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
The supported way is to install the XenServer 5.6 FP1 SDK VM, compile your applications there, package them, and then copy the package to your XCP hosts. -Dustin On Thu, Apr 21, 2011 at 1:46 PM, Hoot Thompson <hoot@ptpnow.com> wrote:> I built a couple of XCP servers and they only used around 5GB of the hard > drives.

Ok, maybe I''m going down the wrong path. My objective is get Eucalyptus or Openstack running and I assumed that I would have to do something at the XCP base level, hence the need for more space, compilers, etc. Have I gone off the rails?

I believe you install those on a separate server and they communicate with XCP via XenAPI. You don''t install them directly on the XCP host itself. -Dustin On Fri, Apr 22, 2011 at 5:35 AM, Hoot Thompson <hoot@ptpnow.com> wrote:> Ok, maybe I''m going down the wrong path.
