I was looking for free cloud storage/hosting and just landed on clearvm yesterday. On setup page I saw that it requires atleast 2 computers. One that is I am using and other as a host server. What if for now, I want to use my laptop as my host server? I mean only 1 computer.
In ClearVM

    Sorry for the delay, but notification e-mails of new posts have been failing.

    ClearVM is for you to run on your own hardware but you can then access it from the internet. It is not cloud base but you become your own cloud.

    I understand what you are saying, but my question is that:

    Is it necessary to have 2 computers as mentioned on the setup page?

    Can you link me to the page so I can try to understand what it says. It may be one computer to run ClearVM on and one to access it.

    I am talking about when you first login and see a server setup page. I tried to login, but it is taking too much time.

    Yes ClearVM is a bare metal hypervisor it is not like Oracle VirtualBOX or VMWare workstation were it uses the OS to lauch a virtualization Application.
    This allows the GuestVM to have more physical resources, and increases performance of the VM's.

    There has been a certificate issue with ClearVM. This should now be OK, if you want to try again.
