Creating local ISO storage on XenServer

This is a short how to create a local ISO storage on XenServer. You can use WinSCP to drop ISOs in /var/opt/xen/iso_import. Go to the console and type mkdir -p /var/opt/xen mkdir -p /var/opt/xen/iso_import xe sr-create name-label=”Local ISO Storage” type=iso device-config:location=/var/opt/xen/iso_import device-config:legacy_mode=true content-type=iso Then the new SR should appear in your Xencenter console.
