= !TurnkeyLinux Virtual Machine Maintenance Docs =

In addition to the [InstallationGuidelines/VirtualMachine Developer Virtual Machine], there is a version based on
a !TurnkeyLinux Base Virtual Machine. This version is currently far out of date, and not in use.

-----

It is best if the VM is maintained using the original !VirtualBox image & then re-exported to OVF
{{{
update_all
}}}

Test Sahana Eden.

{{{
clean
}}}

The following aliases have been setup:
{{{
alias w2p='cd /home/sahana/Desktop/web2py && python web2py.py -S eden -M'
alias update='cd /home/sahana/Desktop/web2py/applications/eden && bzr pull'
alias update_w2p='cd /home/sahana/Desktop/web2py && bzr up'
alias update_all='sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade -y;cd /home/sahana/Desktop/web2py && bzr up;cd /home/sahana/Desktop/web2py/applications/eden && bzr pull'
alias clean="rm ~/.bash_history;cd ~/Desktop/web2py/applications/eden && rm -f databases/* && rm -rf cache/* && rm -f sessions/* && rm -f models/000_config.py && rm -f cron/crontab;sudo rm -f /var/log/*;sudo rm -f /var/cache/apt/archives/*;COLUMNS=200 sudo dpkg -l | grep ^rc | awk '{print $2} ' | xargs sudo dpkg -P"
}}}

== Resume Uploads ==
If the scp upload fails, then can resume it using:
{{{
rsync -Pe ssh Eden-VM.zip flavour@eden.sahanafoundation.org:.
}}}

== Info only ==
The next 2 steps are unnecessary if exporting to OVF?

Overwrite the freespace with zeroes:

{{{
apt-get install secure-delete
sfill -fz /
}}}

Compress the VDI disk image:

{{{
C:
cd "\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox"
VBoxManage modifyhd c:\Users\%USERNAME%\.virtualbox\harddisks\Eden-Dev.vdi compact
