CS 4.1 and CentOS 6.3
Hello,
I have been trying to get cloudstack installed for several weeks now but keep running into issues.I was wondering if someone was available to talk about some things and high level and possibly take a look at my configs / logs to help troubleshoot?
Thanks

Hi James
I have downloaded the uss-cloudstack-3.0.iso and I have burn it in a DVD.
When boot the server and start the installation of the CentOS by default it
ask me the dvd or the cd with the image of the CentOS.
Is this normal? Can you help me??
Thanks in advice

This is a great idea. I would be great to get something like that going for the 4.2 release.

Hi All,
I actually did this a long time ago for Cloud.com - called "Cloud.com in
a Box" (so we are talking early versions of CloudStack - 2.2 and 3.0).
It was an ISO image that would automatically install CloudStack on
physical machines:
- CloudStack Management Server
- One ore more compute nodes
This was using KVM in the compute nodes.
Link here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/usharesoftvapps/files/uss-clouddotcom/
There was actually a video done showing the process:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mcnZin7ALY
There was a wizard to guide you through the process, but the actual
install and configuration was done automatically. It was a prototype to
showcase some of our own packaging tools at the time.
Would this be something interesting to restart ?
Best
James

What *I* would wish (if wishes were horsesŠ) would be a process similar to
vagrant.
stackmaker init basic
stackmaker up
Where stackmaker is a yet-to-be-invented-and-written adjunct to CloudStack.
The result of the above commands would be a CloudStack management server,
and a CloudStack instance running on the same machine as CloudStack
management server.
No need to read the docs :)
This would probably involve some combination of marvin config and some
intelligent guesses about the environment.

I am in the same position and I suspect that others are as well.
Who would be interested in participating in a virtual meeting to walk
through the installation together to find out where the instructions are
wrong?
It seems to be a known problem that if you follow the instructions
exactly as they are written, you end up with a non-functional system.
This seems to be partly caused by an installation procedure that is
supposed to be all things to all people and tries to support too many
configuration options.
I would like to see if I could get a simple, single cpu up and running
with CentOS 6.4 (could live with 6.3 but wonder why not the latest), one
network card sitting in a 192.168.n.x network that can be reached by
anyone on the same 192.168.n.x network.
Creating 1 guest Centos 6.4 VM on that machine would at least let me
know that CloudStack works.
Reaching a port open on the Guest VM from a front-end would be my
ultimate goal. I just want to have a publicly accessible Apache HTTP
server on another server attached to Tomcat running on the guest VM. If
I can get this working the rest of the universe of CloudStack nirvana
should be achievable.
Adding additional machines should be possible from that point.
Adding network cards and storage devices should also be possible.
Anyone interested?

Small correction on my part. Meng helped run through the docs for 4.1 [1]
and compiled the QuickInstallGuide (earlier called the Runbook). We
just forgot to include a build job to generate those docs:
You can find the latest here:

Something that would go a long way is keeping the CentOS and Ubuntu install
instructions in separate documents. I am working on a cut and paste install
doc for Ubuntu 12.04 and CS 4.1.1 and will update it for CS4.2 once it is
released.

This would be a valuable contribution. I think just ironing out the
runbook discrepancies to make the installs smoother for new users
would be a great step forward. I'm happy to join the irc meeting when
you guys have an agenda for the docs fixes.

This runbook idea sounds like it would be incredibly useful.
I'm looking to get an environment together for quick ramp-up learning.
I'll look at the link you provided and try to keep any meaningful
discrepancies I find noted. I can't see anything for the runbook on the
maintainers page - who created the page there is now?
Re: CS 4.1 and CentOS 6.3

The CloudStack runbook [1] was started with exactly this in mind.
Getting first time users quickly up to speed and running with a trial
deployment. The installation guide was to delve into further detail
about planned larger deployments but that distinction perhaps was
perhaps lost in the pace of development.
Would be great to revive the runbook idea.

Hi Ron,
I would be interested in having a meeting if we can get a couple of people
involved and amending documentation where we see fit.
I have setup KVM clusters successfully but do feel that the documentation
doesn't always give the correct outcome. This could be due to the merge of
Ubuntu and CentOS, while both Linux they do have some very different ways
of working, which may confuse users who are trying to setup a cloudstack
system. Unfortunately I do not know of a nice way of resolving this without
duplicating documentation which I am sure the community would not like.
I run in BST so let me know a nice time,
Marty

Hey Taylor
As Marty said, your best bet for community support is to send your problem right in to this mailing list
If you really need to speak to someone, give me a call tomorrow and I'll get one of our consultants to talk you through a few things quickly

Hi Taylor, you should try IRC the #cloudstack channel on free node
Or directly ask on this list and post your logs somewhere like pastebin (the list trims attachments)
