During The installation Of XenServer

To install the Supplemental Pack for Citrix XenServer during the installation of XenServer:

1. Start the installation of XenServer as usual and follow the instructions on the screen.

2. One of the early questions during the installation process of XenServer is if you want to install any

Supplemental Packs; click Yes and continue with the installation process.

3. After the base XenServer image is installed (5-10 minutes depending on the speed of the system), you

are prompted to insert the Supplemental Pack CD. Eject the XenServer installation CD from the

optical drive, insert the Supplemental Pack CD and click

OK. The message OpenManage

Supplemental Pack was found is displayed. To confirm installation, click Use and click OK.

NOTE: If you have more than one Supplemental Pack, (either the Linux Supplemental Pack from

Citrix or other third-party applications) you can install them in any order, although it is

recommended that you install the Supplemental Pack last.

4. After completing the Supplemental Pack installation (2-5 minutes, depending on the speed of the

system), you are prompted to install other Supplemental Packs. If you do not want to install other

supplemental packs, click Skip and press <Enter>. The XenServer is installed successfully.

the key with a command similar to the following:
