IT depends on what OS X you have. IF you have Ubuntu, then either DevCloud or your environment is the same. You may directly use your Ubuntu.
But if OS X is windows, for some hypervisor, you can't directly deploy MS on Windows. Then DevCloud provides a way to bypass this Windows limitation. -Fang -----Original Message----- From: Mike Tutkowski [mailto:mike.tutkow...@solidfire.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2013 3:43 PM To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: DevCloud Question Hi everyone, I'm curious to learn a bit about DevCloud. I don't currently understand how it relates from a development-workflow perspective. My host OS is OS X. I have VirtualBox, Eclipse, Git, Maven, etc. installed in OS X. I am running the DevCloud appliance via VirtualBox. I can bring up the CloudStack GUI and log in this way and that's easy and great to be able to do. What I don't really understand is how our development workflow should be using DevCloud. Do I develop code in Eclipse on OS X and port the artifacts over to DevCloud to update it? Am I supposed to develop directly on Ubuntu in DevCloud (and, as such, should not use Eclipse). Should I just ignore DevCloud completely and develop everything on OS X? I'm a little lost here.
