Using the OBS Appliance

The OBS Appliance provides an easy and scalable way to start using OBS. This setup scales from workstation only to workgroup size and allows migration to enterprize size lateron.

Prerequisites:

* VirtualBox                                              (or VMware / Qemu , but instructions are VirtualBox-centric atm)
* OBS Appliance                                           (will be downloaded in the tutorial)
* OBS Data storage disk with LVM volumes                  (we'll setup, this is YOUR data store)
* openSUSE 11.4 live cd                                   (for LVM volume setup)
* network with dhcp                                       (required!)
* network with dns-server and dhcp client resolution      (option)

The steps on this tutorial were collected on an openSUSE 11.3 system.

Fetching needed files

Lets create a folder "obs-appliance-downloads".

mkdir -p ~/obs-appliance-downloads
cd ~/obs-appliance-downloads

VirtualBox

Install VirtualBox (as root) for your Distribution from http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads or use your package manager to install VirtualBox. At time of writing, VirtualBox 4.0.4 was used.

OBS Appliance

The openSUSE Build Service Appliance is developed and hosted by the openSUSE project. We use the "vmx" image.
