Manual Cloudmin Installation
Posted 2009-06-18 19:36 by Joe
At the time of writing, Cloudmin does not have an automated installation process for very many platforms like Virtualmin. However, it is relatively simple to install, as it has far fewer dependencies. A yum repository is provided for RPM-based distributions, as well as a Webmin compatible wbm repository for updates via the Webmin update system.
To install on a CentOS, Redhat Enterprise or Fedora Core system, the steps to follow are :
Installing Cloudmin

Cloudmin can be installed in a number of ways, including an automated install script which uses the standard package management features of your OS, and software repositories containing our software in native package formats. We strongly recommend that you use the automated install script to install Virtualmin, if at all possible.

Downloading System Images
Posted 2009-06-17 21:36 by andreychek
A system image is effectively a file containing the entire filesystem of a virtual system, either in tar.gz or EXT3 format. When a virtual system is created by Cloudmin, it can use an image as the basis of the system's filesystem, rather than needing to download and install packages, or copy files from the host system.
Making Your Own Images

Images for Xen, VServers or Zones
A Cloudmin image is really just a compressed copy of the contents of a virtual system's filesystem, which means that it is quite possible to create your own images to supplement those that are available for download. This can be useful if you want to create multiple systems with your own customized configuration or special software installed, or if you just want to clone an existing server.

EC2 is different from other virtualization systems supported by Cloudmin, as it is a hosted service run by Amazon on their machines. They charge by the hour of machine time, and also for storage of any machine images that you create and host on their S3 service.
