\r
74 <para>As far as possible, you should perform the following steps in the exact order given since the
\r
75 success of many steps relies on the successful completion of earlier steps. You should make backup
\r
76 copies of files and environments when you are instructed to do so. In the event of installation problems
\r
77 those copies can allow you to back out of a step gracefully and resume the installation from a known
\r
78 state. See <xref linkend="backingup"/> for further information.</para>
\r
79 <para>Of course, after you successfully complete and test the entire Evergreen installation you should

80 take a final snapshot backup of your system(s). This can be the first in the series of regularly

256 domain and <systemitem class="domainname">private.localhost</systemitem> for the
\r
257 private domain. On a single-server system, the easiest way to

1450 <title>Installing In Virtualized <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> Environments</title>
\r
1451 <para>This section describes the installation of Evergreen software in so-called "virtualized"
\r
1452 software environments. Evergreen software runs as a native application on any of several
\r
1453 well-known x86 (32-bit) and x86-64 (64-bit) <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem>
\r
1454 distributions including <systemitem class="osname">Ubuntu</systemitem> and
\r
1455 <systemitem class="osname">Debian</systemitem> but it does not run as a native application
\r
1456 on the <systemitem class="osname">Microsoft Windows</systemitem> operating system.
\r
1457 However, it is possible to execute Evergreen on a <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem>
\r
1458 host system by running it within a virtual Linux-guest installation, which itself executes
\r
1459 on the <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> system.
\r
1460 The <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment is fully emulated and acts
\r
1461 (within limits) just as if it were executing on a real standalone system.</para>
\r
1462 <para>This technique of emulating a <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment on
\r
1463 a <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> host is a practical way to install and run an
\r
1464 Evergreen system if it is not possible to dedicate a physical machine solely as a
\r
1465 <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> host for Evergreen. This architecture is not
\r
1466 recommended for large scale systems since there are performance limitations to running Evergreen
\r
1467 in a virtualized environment. However, it is a reasonable architecture for smaller experimental
\r
1468 systems, as a proof of concept, or as a conference-room pilot.</para>
\r
1470 <title>Installing Virtualization Software</title>
\r
1471 <para>As described above, Evergreen can be installed on top of an emulated
\r
1472 <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment. The
\r
1473 <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment, in turn, is installed
\r
1474 on top of a software application such as <application>"VirtualBox"</application>,
\r
1475 <application>"VMware"</application> or <application>"VirtualPC"</application> which must
\r
1476 first be installed on the <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> system. This
\r
1477 section contains step-by-step examples that show installing popular virtualization
\r
1478 applications on a <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> host system. Following
\r
1479 this section are further descriptions of installing
\r
1480 <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> and Evergreen systems using that
\r
1481 virtualization software.</para>

1503 continue with installing <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> and Evergreen
\r
1504 software in the new virtualized environment:</para>

1514 guest system, then manually install Evergreen on it (see

\r
1518 <para>We review each method in the following sections.</para>
\r
1519 <simplesect xml:id="serversideinstall-virtual-prebuilt">
\r
1520 <title>Download and install a prebuilt software image</title>
\r
1521 <para>You can download a prebuilt software image that, when installed with your
\r
1522 virtualization software, emulates a
\r
1523 <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> guest system containing a running
\r
1524 Evergreen distribution. The image is essentially a snapshot of a hard disk from
\r
1525 a fully configured, functional <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem>
\r
1526 system with Evergreen already installed.</para>
\r
1527 <para>We recommend this approach if you wish to get Evergreen running quickly
\r
1528 with minimal attention to configuration. After reviewing only a few
\r
1529 configuration details you can have a working Evergreen system that integrates
\r
1530 smoothly with the rest of your network. See
