[jira] [Comment Edited] (CLOUDSTACK-2702) unable to install XenServer Support Package (CSP) on Xen cloud platform 1.6

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2702?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13692811#comment-13692811 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------

Good news! We have found a simple solution to let Security Groups (SG) work for XCP 1.6 / XenServer 6.1 without having to install CSP.
XCP 1.6 / XenServer 6.1 have all the required RPMs built in. Just do the following BEFORE adding a host to the cluster:

1. $ vi /etc/sysctl.conf. Modify:
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 1
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 0  # unchanged
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 1

2. $ xe-switch-network-backend bridge

3. $ reboot

However, Sec. 8.2.7. "Install CloudStack XenServer Support Package (CSP)" in the Installation Guide says NOTHING about what to do for XenServer 6.1 (XCP probably is not officially supported, anyway?)
Not sure if this is the right way. Hope someone can review my procedure to enable SG, and add appropriate instructions in the docs for at least XenServer 6.1. Thanks!
