1. Run the zypper addrepo url command.

   url in this command is an HTTP address, for example, http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:garloff:OTC:cloudinit/SLE_11_SP4/home:garloff:OTC:cloudinit.repo

2. Run the zypper refresh command.

NOTE:

The dependent software packages vary depending on the Cloud-Init version. This section uses cloud-init-0.7.6-27.19.1.x86_64.rpm as an example. You can use the latest version.

Step 1: Install cloud-init-0.7.6-27.19.1.x86_64.rpm.

1. Obtain the Cloud-Init installation package.

   Visit the SUSE official website https://software.opensuse.org/package/cloud-init, locate SUSE SLE-11 SP4, and click Show unstable packages.

   In the displayed Warning dialog box, click Continue.

2. Click 64 Bit shown in the following figure. The browser will automatically download the Cloud-Init 0.7.6 software package.

   

3. Upload the Cloud-Init 0.7.6 to the VM and run the rpm -ivh cloud-init-0.7.6-27.19.1.x86_64.rpm command to query the dependent packages.

Step 2: Install the dependent software packages.

Download dependent software packages from the zypper source. If some dependent software packages are not contained in the zypper source, download them from the SUSE official website https://software.opensuse.org/search and then upload them to the VM.

1. Install python-six.

   Visit the SUSE official website https://software.opensuse.org/search and search for python-six.

   Click python-six in the search result, locate the SUSE 11 SP4 OS with OTC, and click 64 Bit.

   

   Upload the package to the VM and run the rpm -ivh python-six-xxx command to install python-six. The methods of installing other dependent packages are similar to this.

2. During the installation, you are not prompted of the python-six dependent package and need to install it.

   Run the rpm -ivh Package name command to upload the package to the VM and install it.

   linux-dann:/tmp # rpm -ivh python-six-1.10.0-5.1.x86_64.rpm
   warning: rpm -ivh python-six-1.10.0-5.1.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signa
