urgent help required for advanced zone: DHCP issue
Hello, I have deployed advanced zone and deployed windows 2008 VM instance. The VM instance is connected to isolated network. The issue is none of the VMs are getting dhcp address from virtual router. I tried to restart virtual router but still no DHCP address from vRouter. Any suggestion? Thanks, Tejas

We currently have a XenServer 6.1 pool being managed by a CloudStack 4.1.1 deployment. We have a client that would like to export a number of VMs so they can import them into their own XenServer pool. What would be the best way to accomplish this? I know that I can download individual volumes. Can CloudStack export VMs as OVFs or similar? The only reference to exporting I can find in the documentation is for templates. The section on exporting templates does not state what format they can be exported in. Thanks in advance, Billy Ramsay
Re: urgent help required for advanced zone: DHCP issue
Thanks Erik, Its RESOLVED. it turnedout to be an network switch issue. Blade switch was configured with vlans so vms were pining in single blade chassie but* cloud vlans were not configured in Lan switches* so traffic was not able to go outside. my virtual router was in different blade chassie therefore it was not able to take dhcp address. I am started facing another issue in shared network: when i added additional *shared network* to VM it was *not able take DHCP address from shared network ip pool*.

I know you can already see the required arguments with help, but if it's not a lot of effort to implement having them marked with tab completion would be great. During tab completion to make text bold on VT100/XTerm ($TERM) based terminals we will need to first make sure that color is set to true, boldness on terminal is achieved using special escape characters doing that when the text change dynamically (as you press tab tab) is tricky and can cause issues so I've avoided such text/color effects. I'm planning to refactor cloudmonkey in future so that people will be able to write them own plugins for cloudmonkey ( that would control color output, themes, output formats etc).

Re: Any more CloudMonkey improvements you want to see?
Hi Logan, CloudMonkey does not handle requests on each API basis so it's hard to know what to display besides the uuid values during autocompletion. So, I implemented in such a way to look for a key like name or description and print that besides uuid. This helps cloudmonkey to automatically deal with any new API as they are discovered. The only way to fix such cases would be to deal with them case by case basis but that makes the code complex. It a general issue for all APIs, I'll explore in future if there are ways to automatically deal with such cases.

RE: Network Traffic Statistics
Network Stats (listVirtualMachines ) and Network Usage (listUsageRecords) are two different entities. The former is run time stats received from the hypervisor and isn't stored or used by cloudstack. The latter is raw CCP usage and as you mentioned, gathered via iptables on VR and only captures traffic on public interface. -Original Message- From: Logan Barfield [mailto:lbarfi...@tqhosting.com] Sent: Friday, December 12, 2014 3:20 PM To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Network Traffic Statistics Just a quick question about traffic statistics.

My question is: Is there currently a way via CloudStack to pull only the public network traffic for a given network (incoming and outgoing)? The statistics gathering seems to use the NETWORK_STATS IPtables entries on the VR, so I would think it could pull the traffic for just the public interface. Even better would be to pull the traffic for each public IP, but that would be a bit more difficult I assume. Thank You, Logan Barfield Tranquil Hosting
Re: How to remove VM entry from CloudStack database?
CloudStack doesn’t usually remove records from db tables. If you look t vm_instance (or many other tables in there) you’ll see three timestamp fields: created, update_time, and removed. So if you want to “remove” a vm/disk/nic/etc, you change the removed field from null to a timestamp, e.g. UPDATE vm_instance SET removed=now() WHERE id=105; John On Dec 11, 2014, at 11:31 PM, Vadim Kimlaychuk vadim.kimlayc...@elion.ee wrote: Tejas, Stopped and Destroyed are visible statuses of VM at dashboard as well as Expunding.

Re: Shared Storage for VMs
I have this requirement for some of the applications deployed in CS too Workaround solution (of sorts) was to create a Shared Network attached to a Physical VLAN then hook up a Physical NAS to the same VLAN. The shared network is bound to a particular account / project so that it can't be used by everyone For me part of the attraction of using CS over OpenStack was that you could craft the network in this way so that you an support applications / deployments which have physical device requirements or haven't been developed to be 100% cloudy. I notice that OpenStack is looking into a shared volume system, I'd also like the option of doing it 100% inside of CS if it was capable of doing so. I do recall though that in XenServer ( ESX 4 I think) it wasn't possible to attach a single volume to multiple machines without significant hacking of the underlying Python - after which building things like an Oracle RAC / GRID system or OCFS2 was possible but this is probably out of reach for most users. Perhaps something like a Virtual NAS VM like the Virtual Routers etc. would be sufficient - think OpenFiler but inside of CS?
