search engines are your friend - i.e.:
https://computingforgeeks.com/xen-virtualization-in-linux/
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart

there are different ways to install / deploy xen on a linux system like centos
- so there is no common installation guide. For beginners it should be the
easiest way to start with / use the pre packaged xen stuff from the
distributor of his choice (like in the howtos i linked here).

In (very) short:
- install a xen capable linux kernel (if the installed kernel is not xen
capable yet)
- install the (bootable) xen binary and xen-tools (incl. dependencies)
- adapt bootloader config to boot xen
- reboot
- check wth i.e. xl info / xl list

some of these points may be hidden in / done by the installer of your
disctributors packages.

- create your first domU



hth,


niels.

At the risk of stating the obvious:

# tar xfa xen-4.15.0.tar.gz
# cd xen-4.15.0
# make rpmball
# rpm -Uvh dist/xen.rpm

In case that fails:
# less -S INSTALLL


Good luck.

Hello,

you have the tarball for xen-4.15.0.tar.gz, but there is an easier way
to get xen packages.

http://mirrors.oit.uci.edu/centos/7/virt/x86_64/xen-414/

above is the repo for the full set of xen-4.14 packages, but AFAIK
there is no release RPM, so you might do:
sudo yumdownloader centos-release-xen-412

rpm2cpio centos-release-xen-412-8-7.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm | cpio -ivd
"*CentOS-Xen-412.repo"

cp etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Xen-412.repo ./
sed -i -e 's|412|414|g' CentOS-Xen-412.repo > CentOS-Xen-414.repo
cp -p CentOS-Xen-414.repo /etc/yum.repos.d

cheers,

correction:

sed -e 's|412|414|g' CentOS-Xen-412.repo > CentOS-Xen-414.repo

you can, but then don't forget to enable nested virtualization to
benefit from hardware-assisted VT-x or AMD-V (grep vmx or svm against
/proc/cpuinfo)
