Installing XenServer
NOTE: If your XenServer host is preinstalled, you can skip the following installation
steps and proceed to "Configuring the XenServer Host" on page 12.
1 Burn the downloaded ISO image to a media.
NOTE: To download the XenServer ISO image, go to mycitrix.com.
2 Insert the XenServer installation media and boot to the media.
The installer takes you through several steps and prompts you to select
the keyboard type, source installation type, target installation device,
supplemental packs, and so on.
NOTE: A supplemental pack is an additional software that is installed on top
of the XenServer image.
3 If you are installing Linux VMs, you must install the Linux supplemental
pack. Select
Yes and proceed.
The installer prompts you for the supplemental pack media after it installs
the base XenServer image.
4 Complete the installation by adding the network, locale, and user information.
5 Confirm your selection.
The installer partitions the target device and the installation begins.
The time required to install XenServer varies depending on the hardware
configuration of your server.
