Quick Install Eucalyptus

From the Eucalyptus system website to see a news, learned that eucalyptus and rpath cooperation. And Rpath is a company that provides system software package installation. The author contacted a lot of software systems are through the rpath way of packaging. Rpath can make the Linux operating system and related software together into one installation package. Installation packages can be based on a virtual machine (such as vmware/esx) or a bare-metal installation package. Basically, users simply need to confirm, you can quickly complete the operating system and the installation of applications. Greatly improved the user's installation experience.

Google a bit rpath and eucalyptus, found Eucalyptus rpath packaged appliance.

Introduction: Appliance:eucalyptus Appliance

I downloaded the bare metal mode installation disk. Includes: Bare metal controller and bare metal node. Including Eucalyptus Cloud Controller & Cluster Controller and Node Controller

Release:eucalyptus Appliance, Version 1.0

I use VMware to simulate two machines.

1, in VMware 6.5 in the choice of Linux 64bit boot bare metal controller ISO CD. All the way to the car down, basically installed completed.

2, the same method, install bare metal node.

3, use the installation of the root password login bare metal controller. You can also use the built-in SSH key to log in. The private key of the built-in account can be downloaded from the following address

4. Configure node Address

$EUCALYPTUS/usr/sbin/euca_conf-nodes "<node IP address>"/opt/eucalyptus/etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf

5, Start clc/cc

/etc/init.d/euca start

6. Increase Cluster

$EUCALYPTUS/usr/sbin/euca_conf-addcluster rpath 127.0.0.1

7. Copy controller key to node

$EUCALYPTUS/usr/sbin/euca_sync_key-c $EUCALYPTUS/etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf

8. Start Service on Node

Touch/etc/sysconfig/euca-sync

Tail/opt/eucalyptus/var/log/eucalyptus/nc.log

This completes a Eucalyptus installation

You can log in to Controller for management. For example, Controller IP is 192.168.142.134, can be managed via Firefox login Controller

https://192.168.142.134:8443/

The default installation includes mirroring. You can then refer to the Eucalyptus documentation, add mirrors, and then start the virtual machine with Amazon EC2 tools.
