CloudStack 4.0.1 VMWare Support

I'm wondering if anyone has successfully gotten the VMWare hypervisor support working with CloudStack 4.0.1.  I know that the VMWare support is no longer in the official RPM packages, but even attempts to compile myself with the nonoss modules fails at trying to build the VMWare step.  I'm not a maven expert, but it looks like it's trying to download a POM and metadata file from http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/cloudstack/cloud-vmware-base/4.0.1-incubating-SNAPSHOT/, which doesn't actually exist.

Anyway, I'm less looking to troubleshoot and more just curious if anyone has managed to get the VMWare hypervisor working in 4.0.1 or if I should just go back to 4.0.0 and wait for a future release.

Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Regards,
Scott Taubman

Scott,

This is a common question asked on dev@ list. You are missing the non-open source java dependencies.

In the nutshell, we have 2 versions of cloudstack

1) open source - oss - KVM and XEN
2) non open source - nonoss - NetApp, VmWare, F5, NetScaler, etc...

If you are installing with RPMs, make sure you download the nonoss version.

If you are downloading a source from apache git, the INSTALL.md file describes in good amount of detail what to do and where to get the missing files. Please search the dev maling or cloudstack wiki, Wido hosts a repository with all dependencies, I just don't have the link handy.

Regards
ilya

The RPM should come in with nonoss packages integrated.

Getting CloudStack from a Package Repository
For easier installation or upgrades, the official source code release has been supplemented by community members who have chosen to provide package repositories.

DEB package repository: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/ubuntu
RPM package repository: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/rhel
Instructions for using these community provided repositories can be found in the Configure package repository section of the Installation Guide.

Ilya,

I'd love to be installing from the nonoss version of the RPMs, but this is the first I've heard of them existing.  If you know where they're hosted and can point me to them, I'd be more than grateful.  I'm just an end-user on CloudStack so if I can avoid having to compile things, that's certainly my preference.

Thanks,
Scott
