Re: Cloudstack advanced networking for development environment
Hi Vadim, I am trying to setup cloudstack in a single virtualbox virtual machine. My brief research suggested that it is possible to deploy cloudstack like this for testing purposes.

RE: Cloudstack advanced networking for development environment
Chris, Thanks for the fast reply. I have looked into your project. It is not exactly what we are looking for. Your project resembles http://devstack.org/ but for CS. We are looking basically the opposite - real set of VM-s but at smaller scale. We have one host full of management VM-s (db, 2xmanagement VM-s, storage VM, load balancer) and 3 hosts (for XEN guests). It is nearly production environment, but without L3 switch. I would say that basic network in CS works well and we have no problems setting it up. But for advanced networking where traffic should be isolated and routed it is much more difficult. We often get No route to host and destination unreachable because of that.

AWS api only for basic networking zones ?
Hi, I'm looking into enabling the AWS compatible API on CS. But from the docs: http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.2.0/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#aws-ec2-introduction ...it states that this is only supported in Basic Networking zones. Since I'm using advanced networking zone, should I even try enabling the AWS thing, or should I give up on this. I'm on CS 4.2.1. Thanks, - Andrija Panić

CS4.2 monitor instance memory usage
Hello, I actually have two questions that am unable to find the solutions in the documentation, perhaps I did not search correctly. 1. I would like to monitor the memory usage of a instance from the Dashboard? is that possible? 2. I would like to add a 2nd management server. 2nd management server will be a instance in CloudStack. I was not able to find the command to connect instance to database server? Thanks in advance.
Re: CS4.2 monitor instance memory usage
Hi, For your first question, there is nothing built in that would enable you to do that. However, if you really wish to have some functionality like that you could implement it. For your second question the answer is that it is possible. As a matter of fact, the Cloud that I manage at the laboratory where I work, the whole cloudstack structure (database and management servers) run over the cloud they are managing (they can even manage their on VMs instance). What do you mean with command to connect to database server?

cloudstack presenting wrong used memory values
Hi all, I am mailing this to the dev and users list, since I am not sure which one would be the best to make such question. So, I deployed Zenoss to monitor my Cloud, and I noticed something weird on a graph that it was generating about the Cloud's memory. The graph was showing total memory as 26GB, allocated as 16GB and used as 19MB. It was not making sense, so I was looking around and I noticed that this 19MB is the value that the Cloudstack presents as the memory used on infrastructureHosts. I think that this problem is related to this ticket opened last year. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-3048 Sadly, it seems that no one has taken a look at it. Does anyone know anything about this problem/bug? -- Rafael Weingärtner

Never had a requirement/reason to worry about it as my DNS servers are configured to resolve my RFC1918 assigned LAN devices and public records. For example, does Management Server perform internal DNS lookups? The management server uses whichever nameservers you have configured in /etc/resolv.conf. I am not sure why you are digging deep into the DNS settings… its a very simple step while adding a new Zone. Just specify the same DNS settings as used by other devices in your network. I am however aware that there are MANY networks which still use IP addresses instead of hostnames. If your networks happens to rely on IP addresses, now would be a good time to create a DNS system :) I'm trying to figure out 'when' I need to add new records to the internal DNS server. If you plan to use hostnames instead of IP addresses for resources like hypervisors, storage devices etc, then you need to create DNS records. Alternatively, you can also add /etc/hosts entries. Depending on your DNS topology, you might have private internal DNS servers or public hosted DNS services (or both). I guess one way for me to understand when I need to add a host record to the internal DNS is by knowing what which parts of the Cloudstack admin interface have fields that require a corresponding internal DNS record.

Re: Internal DNS confusion
Hi Shanker, I'm trying to build a self contained cloudstack virtualbox virtualmachine similar to devcloud. I'm thinking that the virtualmachine will need to run its own internal DNS server, but it probably only needs one entry, the hostname of the virtualbox virtualmachine. Sorry if these questions are basic, but I haven't seen any topology examples that describe everything on a single node, so I'm confused what is required. Many thanks, Chris On Tue, Jan 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM, Shanker Balan shanker.ba...@shapeblue.com wrote: Comments inline.

Never had a requirement/reason to worry about it as my DNS servers are configured to resolve my RFC1918 assigned LAN devices and public records. For example, does Management Server perform internal DNS lookups? The management server uses whichever nameservers you have configured in /etc/resolv.conf. I am not sure why you are digging deep into the DNS settings... its a very simple step while adding a new Zone. Just specify the same DNS settings as used by other devices in your network. I am however aware that there are MANY networks which still use IP addresses instead of hostnames. If your networks happens to rely on IP addresses, now would be a good time to create a DNS system :) I'm trying to figure out 'when' I need to add new records to the internal DNS server. If you plan to use hostnames instead of IP addresses for resources like hypervisors, storage devices etc, then you need to create DNS records. Alternatively, you can also add /etc/hosts entries. Depending on your DNS topology, you might have private internal DNS servers or public hosted DNS services (or both). I guess one way for me to understand when I need to add a host record to the internal DNS is by knowing what which parts of the Cloudstack admin interface have fields that require a corresponding internal DNS record. For example: Network Add Guest Network Network Domain Domains Add Domain Network Domain Does each network domain above require an entry to be added into the internal DNS? Are there any other places in the admin UI that require records to be added to the internal DNS server? I believe Sanjeev already replied to this one. network domains are handled internally by CloudStack virtual routers.

RE: AWS api only for basic networking zones ?
Hello Andrija, AWSAPI feature can be tried on any type of zone. The feature makes more sense if it is used with Basic Zone with Security Groups and Advanced Zone with Security Groups. In case if you just want to try couple of ec2 apis against CloudStack, there is no harm in enabling it and playing with it.

re: Enabling SSL in the CloudStack
Hi Hollman, I'd recommend fronting your CloudStack installation with a load balancer and terminating the SSL sessions there. This will work well even if you only have a single management server behind the load balancer. You gain the added benefit of being able to scale your management cluster out without changing the front end IP address serving the portal / API. Most load balancers like Citrix NetScaler will work well, or you could use an open source solution such as HAproxy - the latest development builds support native SSL termination.

I'm thinking that the virtualmachine will need to run its own internal DNS server, but it probably only needs one entry, the hostname of the virtualbox virtualmachine. Sorry if these questions are basic, but I haven't seen any topology examples that describe everything on a single node, so I'm confused what is required. Many thanks, Chris On Tue, Jan 28, 2014 at 5:07 PM, Shanker Balan shanker.ba...@shapeblue.com wrote: Comments inline.

If no, what other parts of cloudstack perform internal DNS lookups? Dunno. Never had a requirement/reason to worry about it as my DNS servers are configured to resolve my RFC1918 assigned LAN devices and public records. For example, does Management Server perform internal DNS lookups? The management server uses whichever nameservers you have configured in /etc/resolv.conf. I am not sure why you are digging deep into the DNS settings... its a very simple step while adding a new Zone. Just specify the same DNS settings as used by other devices in your network. I am however aware that there are MANY networks which still use IP addresses instead of hostnames. If your networks happens to rely on IP addresses, now would be a good time to create a DNS system :) I'm trying to figure out 'when' I need to add new records to the internal DNS server. If you plan to use hostnames instead of IP addresses for resources like hypervisors, storage devices etc, then you need to create DNS records. Alternatively, you can also add /etc/hosts entries. Depending on your DNS topology, you might have private internal DNS servers or public hosted DNS services (or both). I guess one way for me to understand when I need to add a host record to the internal DNS is by knowing what which parts of the Cloudstack admin interface have fields that require a corresponding internal DNS record. For example: Network Add Guest Network Network Domain Domains Add Domain Network Domain Does each network domain above require an entry to be added into the internal DNS? Are there any other places in the admin UI that require records to be added to the internal DNS server? I believe Sanjeev already replied to this one. network domains are handled internally by CloudStack virtual routers.

Extract from the Cloudstack installation manual: Internal DNS 1 and Internal DNS 2. These are DNS servers for use by system VMs in the zone (these are VMs used by CloudStack itself, such as virtual routers, console proxies, and Secondary Storage VMs.). The internal DNS server is usually the corporate DNS servers that provide internal DNS services for your LAN. Usually, these are RFC1918 IPs which is why its hosted internally. Question 1: Who manages the Internal DNS? Is an Internal DNS server setup and managed by me, or is it setup and managed by Cloudstack? You (or your IT team). Question 2: If Internal DNS is setup and managed by me, how should it be setup? set it up any way you look. As long as the internal DNS server can resolve the hostname to IP addresses, you should be fine. Question 3: If it is setup and managed by Cloudstack, when did it get setup, and how can I find out what address Cloudstack is using for this server? Its not managed by cloudstack. Most of the time, your internal and external DNS settings would be your corporate DNS server. If a public DNS server can resolve IP addresses for hosts in your LAN, you can use any public DNS server as your internal and external DNS resolver. Hope that makes sense. -- @shankerbalan M: +91 98860 60539 | O: +91 (80) 67935867 shanker.ba...@shapeblue.com | www.shapeblue.com | Twitter:@shapeblue ShapeBlue Services India LLP, 22nd floor, Unit 2201A, World Trade Centre, Bangalore - 560 055 Need Enterprise Grade Support for Apache CloudStack?

Hi Tejas, Can you verify weather dns suffix is set on host? You can use ipconfig to verify that. If it is blank you can use below command to set the dns suffix netdom computername hostname.domain.com /add:newhostname.newdomain.com netdom computername hostname.domain.com /makeprimary:newhostname.newdomain.com then uninstall the Agent AgentShell.exe --uninstall And then reinstall the agent.
