Re: need testers - trunk VM

Hi Josh,

We were able to download and install the VM. But we are stuck at the point
in red below ( how to detect the IP address.) Without that we are unable to
invoke from browser.
 Could you help us on how to do that.

thanks,
Karuna

Re: need testers - trunk VM

Posted by Josh Thompson <jo...@ncsu.edu>.
Karuna,

The VM is using hypervisor nesting to run all of VCL.  The VM you initially 
log in to is the hypervisor.  There is a VM running inside it that has all of 
the VCL code.  Use

ssh mn

to get to it.  That VM is configured to be able to deploy 2 other VMs on the 
same hypervisor on which it is running for use when making reservations.  So, 
you have something like this (best viewed with a fixed width font):

+---------------------------+---------+---------+
|   VCL management node VM  |   VM1   |   VM2   |
----------------------------+---------+---------+
|            CentOS 7 hypervisor VM             |
+-----------------------------------------------+

Additionally, the new NAT code is being used so that all connections can be 
made directly to the IP of the CentOS 7 hypervisor VM.

Re: need testers - trunk VM

Posted by Karuna P Joshi <kj...@umbc.edu>.
Hi Josh,

I was able to successfully install this on another machine and test the VCL
install. However, I have now got stuck with the VCL broker patch testing.
The VM launched doesn't appear to have the same directory structure . I do
not see webcode under /var/www/html/vcl . Also where is the backend
configuration file vcld.conf ? Without this information it's difficult to
apply and test the patch.

regards,
Karuna

Re: need testers - trunk VM

Posted by Josh Thompson <jo...@ncsu.edu>.
Karuna,

Were you able to get console access to the VM to determine the IP address?

It would be really great if we could get a release candidate out this week.  
Do you think you could have your testing done by Wednesday?

Thanks,
Josh

Re: need testers - trunk VM

Posted by Josh Thompson <jo...@ncsu.edu>.
Karuna,

After you boot the VM, you need to figure out how to access the console.  KVM 
provides a few ways of doing this.  I typically use Virtual Machine Manager 
when managing KVM hosts.  It provides an easy way to see the console.  Once 
you have figured out how to access the console, you need to log in as root.  
The root password is 'testVCL@trunk14' (without the quotes).  After logging 
in, just run 'ifconfig' to see the IP address.
