Re: [Openstack] Reg: OpenStack Installation on CentOS 6.3
Hi Nehal, I also came across similar issue. When I restarted the virtual machine and re-did the same step it worked. Are you doing this setup on a physical machine or a virtual machine ?

Unless you flash the BIOS with separate hardware (not by running the flasher on the potentially compromised hardware itself), no. And even then you'll need to be sure you flash every single EEPROM, not just the system board BIOS, and you'll need to make sure you catch any that have been toggled into readonly mode by an attacker and pull and replace them. Note that a simple examination of device drivers / system firmware won't necessarily cover every power on EEPROM in the system :). As for your tech startups, unless they are going to be running on bare metal - e.g. their competitive advantage is going to be datacentre operations efficiency - they are most likely going to be deploying on a virtual substrate themselves. I would validate the proported inability to get good metrics : give them a kvm instance with a reserved machine, and the only noise will be kvm platform management (vs other tenants). That should be able to deliver very robust (within a few %) estimates of capacity and performance for nearly any workload. The cases where it cannot - well, find those cases. To do such a validation, I would pick a metric you think would be distorted - e.g. IOPS - and find or write a bench test for it, then use that from within the KVM instance on a machine (running with the full machine, raw backing devices, etc) and then again from within the machine with no KVM layer. For the metrics are invalid, you'll need to obtain not just different results, but non-predictably different results. E.g. consistently 30% would be a nuisance but still allow prediction for behaviour on bare metal. But sometimes 1% slower and sometimes 40% slower would make it much harder to use.

Re: [Openstack] Using openstack to manage dedicated servers in a service provider setting
I had originally wanted to deploy full server sized KVM instances and rent VPS' that way, but it was brought to my attention that a certain market segment which I'm targeting- tech startups, who are testing apps on these rentals, are unable to get reliable metrics because of the software between their app & the hardware. So I've shifted gears to offering dedicated servers instead, to remove that layer of interference. Couldn't I re-flash the BIOS between each tenant to be sure there isn't any problem with it? -Original Message- From: Robert Collins [mailto:robe...@robertcollins.net] Sent: Sunday, May 26, 2013 4:56 PM To: ch...@christopherbartels.com Cc: openstack@lists.launchpad.net Subject: Re: [Openstack] Using openstack to manage dedicated servers in a service provider setting On 27 May 2013 07:01, Chris Bartels wrote: > Hi, > > > > I'm working on a startup that aims to rent dedicated servers to tech > startups, and I would like to use OpenStack to manage the servers I > rent out. > > > > I saw on the OpenStack Foundation YouTube channel there was a video > there about using OpenStack to manage bare metal, but the presenter in > the video had such a strong accent that I couldn't understand anything > they were saying & didn't learn a thing from the video. Which video in particular ? There are a number of groups who have been taped presenting on bare metal things. I'm part of a team working on using OpenStack [baremetal] to deploy OpenStack [virtual]. So I'm happy to answer any questions. http://www.openstack.org/summit/portland-2013/session-videos/presentation/pr ovisioning-bare-metal-with-openstack is a good video on the baremetal layer, which is what will interest you I think. That said, there are huge security issues with repurposing baremetal from one tenant to another: in the absence of UEFI secure boot it is possible for the prior tenant to inject hostile boot-time firmware into physical devices that have software flashable EEPROMS. Currently in OpenStack we have no mitigation for this at all: so I would very strongly advise against using OpenStack baremetal to provide dedicated machines. What I suggest you do instead is provide KVM instances where the KVM flavor size exactly matches the physical machines - so youre tenants have the full capacity of the machine, and only the [low] overhead of the KVM layer. This has a -much- better security story.

[Openstack] Using openstack to manage dedicated servers in a service provider setting
Hi, I'm working on a startup that aims to rent dedicated servers to tech startups, and I would like to use OpenStack to manage the servers I rent out. I saw on the OpenStack Foundation YouTube channel there was a video there about using OpenStack to manage bare metal, but the presenter in the video had such a strong accent that I couldn't understand anything they were saying & didn't learn a thing from the video. I'm interested in learning the basics about what OpenStack can do with bare metal, and what its limitations are when deployed in this manner. Would someone kindly direct me to resources that would explain this to me please? If anyone else has experience in this use case I'd love to hear from you to learn from your experience. Thank you.
