How to Install SlapOS Standalone

The currently recommended way of installing a SlapOS Standalone is using the single line installer.

Verify Linux Version

Example of Debian: 

debian@slapostest:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:    Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release:    10
Codename:    buster

Start by ssh-ing into your server or using your own Linux PC and verifying the Linux version using:

lsb_release -a

Call Single Line Installer

su - # change to root user in Debian
wget https://deploy.erp5.net/slapos-standalone
bash slapos-standalone

Change to root user and call the single line installer.

This will download, build and install the required packages (slapos-node, slapos-proxy), configure the computer as a SlapOS standalone node. 

 

Installer Tasks

  • Ensure software directory exists ​​
  • Ensure instance directory exists
  • Install packages using apt Uninstall firewalld on CentOS
  • Install re6stnet on CentOS Download slapos.node from Shacache for CentOS 7
  • Install re6stnet on CentOS 7
  • Check if configuration exists already
  • Configure SlapOS with slapos configure local
  • Disable multimaster
  • Wait for proxy
  • Add ipv6 to lo interface
  • Run slapos format for initial bootstrap
  • Set ownership for /opt/slapgrid
  • Disable "slapos node boot"
The Slapos standalone installer basically do these tasks. You can also refer to the source code

Result of the Installer

PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
127.0.0.1                  : ok=17   changed=11   unreachable=0    failed=0  

root@debian:~# slapos --version
slapos 1.6.2

With 0 failed as the result, the SlapOS Standalone has been installed on your PC or your server. You can check your SlapOS version by slapos --version

Local Node Reference

root@debian:~# slapos proxy show --cfg /etc/opt/slapos/slapos-proxy.cfg
Using database: /opt/slapos/slapproxy.db
table computer14
-------------------------------------------------
   reference    address         netmask          
-------------------------------------------------
 local_computer fd46::1 ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::/64 
-------------------------------------------------
 
table software14: empty
 
table partition14: empty
 
table slave14: empty

As the output indicates, "local_computer" is your local node(computer) name. Keep that in mind, you will need this for the further lessons.
