[jira] [Commented] (INFRA-5105) Location to host CloudStack
Devcloud build process & VM download location
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5105?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13446863#comment-13446863 ]
#asfinfra IRC Bot commented on INFRA-5105:
------------------------------------------
<danielsh> IIUC, you are asking for (a) a nightly build environment that has a virtualbox kernel module installed (but you don't need root access for the build); (b) a location to host publicly the output of build, which is 500MB in size every night. Is that correct? How many downloads/day do you expect for the build output?

> The CloudStack (Incubating) project is working on a developer focused virtual machine image called DevCloud. This is a VM that we produce via a VeeWee [1] installation process of a VirtualBox [2] VM image, coupled with Vagrant [3] and puppet provisioners.
> This is NOT a release artifact, but a developer support tool (and community building tool).
> I'm wondering if there is an ASF server that can host a nightly build process and download area for this VM image. It would require root access for me to install VirtualBox, as well as Ruby 9.1.2, VeeWee and Vagrant.
> It was suggested that I try on the people.apache.org server (I'm on minotaur), but obviously I don't have root access to perform the VirtualBox installation. I know that VirtualBox has a FreeBSD port available [4], which involves the installation and loading of a kernel module for it to work.
> Another area of (potential) concern is that the resulting image is ~500 MB in size.
> Any help or direction would be appreciated.
