Installation¶
You can go through the installation at the Install ganetimgr section.
Upgrading¶
If running an older version, look through the Upgrade Notes before upgrading to a new one.
Compatibility¶
ganetimgr has been tested with ganeti versions 2.4-2.10. Due to the nature of the Ganeti RAPI, ganetimgr should be able to communicate with any Ganeti v.2.X cluster.
Some ganeti changes that are required for some of ganetimgr’s features to work, see Ganeti Patches
