I don’t think your VMs would be impacted during the upgrade. YMMV

BTW the centos machine below is a 1 core machine and the ubuntu one is a 2 core

Re: Disk IO on Cloudstack VMs

[Carlos Reátegui]

Nishan,
How did you originally setup your networks?  Did you do it all through 
XenCenter, xe CLI, OS?  I believe I did it all through XC.  I am running XS 
6.0.2 with CS 4.1.  Did you switch to bridge networking?  I did not as it only 
supports 2 nic bonds.

My hosts are set up with 4x1Gbe bond for NAS network (storage label) and 4x1Gbe 
bond for CS Management/CS Storage/CS Guest (cloud-public label).  Both bonds 
are active active.  I am using basic networking but without security groups 
since that requires bridge networking.  Security is not really an issue for 
this setup as it is used internally by QA and dev.

On one of my hosts:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=test.dmp bs=1M conv=fdatasync count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 9.97504 seconds, 105 MB/s

On a CentOS 5 guest:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test.dmp bs=1M conv=fdatasync count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 13.1997 seconds, 79.4 MB/s

On an ubuntu 12.04 guest:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=test.dmp bs=1M conv=fdatasync count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 9.85764 s, 106 MB/s

I tried the above a handful of times on each and they were within a couple % of 
each other every time.  Both of the guests are on the same host I tested above. 
 The SR is on NFS on the same machine as the CS Management stack (Ubuntu 
12.04).  That machine is connected to the storage via 10Gbe and a 2x1Gbe bond 
to the cloud-public network.  No routes exist between these 2 networks.  MTU is 
1500 for both networks.  I have another setup at a different location where I 
set the MTU to 9000 and I seem to remember getting a bit faster throughput at 
least on the hosts.  I’ll check later and let you know.

Let me know if there is anything you want me to check in my setup to compare.

Carlos

Upgrade from CS 4.2.0 to CS 4.2.1

[Du Jun]

Hi all,

I intend to upgrade from CS 4.2.0 to CS 4.2.1. I already have some VMs
running in CS 4.2.0, how can I upgrade from CS 4.2.0 to CS 4.2.1 without
affecting the VMs.

PS: CS 4.2.0 with KVM hypervisor is installed in Ubuntu12.04.

Best Regards,
DuJun

Re: Disk IO on Cloudstack VMs

[Nishan Sanjeewa Gunasekara]

Hi Shankar,

10% overhead for virtual disk seems reasonable.
My VM is PV and I've installed xenserver tools as well. But still getting
20Mbps where as on the host its 150Mbps.

Have you tuned up your VM or changed any parameters?

Regards,
Nishan

Adding new Primary Storage

[Nick Wales]

If primary NFS storage gets added to a cluster with insufficient privileges
for the host to write then the host will reboot.

This could be a problem! Is there a method to test 100% that it wont
happen.

Re: prevent disks from being created on primary storage volume

[Nitin Mehta]

I think CS should have the ability to enable/disable a storage pool just
like we have it for hosts/clusters/pods/zones. Disabling it just disables
the pool for further vm allocation.
It would great if you could open an enhancement for the same in JIRA.

Re: Custom billing Application using CloudStack API

[John Kinsella]

I was avoiding the convo and looking forward to the Denver talk, but since HB 
was directly mentioned...

We use Hostbill…opinions are mixed, mostly because they encrypt the php code so 
we can’t easily modify things. We are not yet using the metered billing 
functionality.

Hostbill’s management are engineers with little business sense, and 
unfortunately frequently rub customers the wrong way, as a result customers 
have created their own forums[1] I think when hb shut down the ones they used 
to run. They’re quick to respond, the the product is constantly gaining new 
functionality, so there are a lot of positives about the product.

Actually, browsing around, I see they charge new customers for the CS module 
now…sigh.

What I’d say is if you’re looking to run a clean/simple public IaaS and need a 
customer control panel/billing solution, consider HB. If you expect to need 
more functionality than on their CS page [2], at some point it’ll be better to 
build in-house.

I’d love to see a solid open-source replacement for things like WHMCS/Hostbill, 
but this is one of those areas where companies tend to build in-house.

RE: prevent disks from being created on primary storage volume

[Geoff Higginbottom]

Hi Len,

As Saksham has highlighted, using Storage Tags is the way to achieve this.

1. Apply tags to the Primary Storage (both this one and the alternate you still 
want to use)
2. Assuming you have not been using storage tags, update the compute and 
storage offerings with the new tags, excluding the tags applied to the storage 
you want to stop from being used by new VMs/Volumes
3. For good measure, for the VMs which you are happy to continue using this 
storage, I would create some new offerings using the appropriate tags, and 
apply them to the existing VMs/Volumes

Kind Regards

You can try adding tags on primary storage you want to use, and use the same

Is it possible to prevent new disks from being created on a particular primary

I don't want to stop the instances that are currently using it, just prevent 
any more disks from being created there.

Asunto: RE: Custom billing Application using CloudStack API

Hi Juan,

My experience is merely a case of looking on the Hostbill website I'm
afraid. I have a feeling that the solution may be subject to some
limitations - I'm not sure how it handles resources that aren't originally
provisioned by the Hostbill interface, and there's a noticeable lack of
info on provisioning and billing for VPCs and advanced networking but
perhaps not an issue for you. The demos I've seen seem to be focussed on
using Cloudstack as a basic VPS hosting platform. Unfortunately that's
about the extent of the insight I can offer. Search for "Hostbill
Cloudstack" and you'll find a few demos with screenshots on their site.

If anyone has looked into this in greater detail, I too would be keen to
hear about your experiences.

Adrian

14262.1 GB used of 14469.1 GB total (8992.1 GB allocated))

Do anyone know if "xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=host-UUID plugin=coalesce-leaf 
fn=leaf-coalesce args:vm_uuid=VM-UUID" is still available in xenserver 6.1? As 
I know it works well in xenserver 5.6 for offline coalesce.

Thanks,
William

RE: Custom billing Application using CloudStack API

[Adrian Lewis]

Hi Juan,

My experience is merely a case of looking on the Hostbill website I'm
afraid. I have a feeling that the solution may be subject to some
limitations - I'm not sure how it handles resources that aren't originally
provisioned by the Hostbill interface, and there's a noticeable lack of
info on provisioning and billing for VPCs and advanced networking but
perhaps not an issue for you. The demos I've seen seem to be focussed on
using Cloudstack as a basic VPS hosting platform. Unfortunately that's
about the extent of the insight I can offer. Search for "Hostbill
Cloudstack" and you'll find a few demos with screenshots on their site.

If anyone has looked into this in greater detail, I too would be keen to
hear about your experiences.

Adrian

Subject: Custom billing Application using CloudStack API

Hi everyone

I work for a company name Kumo (www.kumo.com.co). We are one of the most
important public clouds in Colombia, all of our platforms are based on
cloudstack and Cloud business portal. Right now we have a very complex
problem because we are not being able to bill our costumers automatically.
This is because all of our costumers have different prices for the same
kind of product or VM, this is due to commercial issues and negotiations
that are necessary to do in the colombian market. So we want to build a
billing web application using the cloudstack API in order to create bills
for costumers in an automatically way and also send alerts and take
actions to suspend services if payments are not being received. Does
anyone know examples of this kind of application using the cloudstack API,
or have any insights on how we should approach this problem.

Thank you for your help and pardon my bad spelling.

Cloudstack in South Africa

[TommyBW]

Hi Giles, 

Not quite South Africa but close. I am in Botswana, Gaborone, about 400km from 
Johannesburg. Well I am just getting into CS and Xenserver. I am also building 
a small cloud datacenter based on cloudstack and Xenserver. My equipment is 
still coming in. I am also looking at providing solutions around Cloudstack. 

I have quite a number of years in the IT industry, over 15. Specialising in HP 
storage arrays, HP Servers and blade systems, Virtualisation, Mainly VMware but 
also moving into OVM, KVM and Xenserver. For my datacenter I will be building 
my own storage servers based on Infiniband SAN and ZFS. 

So just keep me in mind when meet ups happen in SA. 


Kind regards 

Tommy Sosa
