OMV-Extras for OMV5 and OMV6
Summary
The installation of OMV-Extras enables access to the full range of value added plugin’s available on openmediavault.
| Note | |
| Applies only to amd64 (64-bit) ISO installations. When using scripted installs (Raspberry PI's, Armbian SBC's, 32-bit, etc.), OMV-Extras is installed by default. | |
Installation
Installing OMV-Extras is accomplished by copying and pasting the following wget command, on your server's command line, as root:
wget -O - https://github.com/OpenMediaVault-Plugin-Developers/packages/raw/master/install | bash
Highlight the line above and hit ctrl+c. In an SSH client like PuTTY, a right mouse click will paste the line into the command line. Do not close the PuTTY window before the script is complete. (The widow can be minimized.)
| Note | |
| If you're unsure of how to use an SSH client to get on the command line, see this reference for → installing and using PuTTY. | |
- When the script is complete, OMV-Extra's will be installed and activated.
- In the OMV6 GUI, under System, Plugins, click the Magnifying Glass icon (check for new plugins).
- In the OMV5 GUI, under System, Plugins, click the Check button.
The plugins window will be populated with a wide range of new, value added, plugins.
