Re: ACS 4.13.1 + Solidfire + VMware

[Harikrishna Patnala]

Hi Matthew,

Yes, SolidFire as a managed storage is supported in 4.13.
You are getting the error while management server is trying to access the 
primary storage, though I'm not sure how the volume is getting created. You 
would have got this error while adding the primary storage itself.

There is a blog which explains SolidFire support with CloudStack 
https://www.shapeblue.com/solidfire-with-cloudstack/ in case you want to 
validate the steps you followed.

SolidFire with CloudStack - The CloudStack 
Company
Aside from traditional storage solutions, CloudStack has supported managed 
storage for some time. In this article, we will touch on SolidFire support in 
CloudStack 4.13 and lay out the exact steps needed to add SolidFire to 
CloudStack as Primary Storage (for VMware, KVM and XenServer). We will also 
explain the difference between the “SolidFire” and […]

Subject: ACS 4.13.1 + Solidfire + VMware

Hello,

I am using ACS 4.13.1 with two ESXi 6.5 hosts and  trying Solidfire plugin
(not SolidfireShared) and I cannot get a VM instance running.

I get the following error (and more after that):
DEBUG [c.c.a.t.Request] (AgentManager-Handler-10:null) (logid:) Seq
9-8594275463906459669: Processing:  { Ans: , MgmtId: 3232238938, via: 9,

to copy template to primary storage due to exception:Exception:
java.lang.Exception\nMessage: A relevant SCSI disk could not be located to
use to create a datastore.\n","wait":0}}] }

After a while I get:
ERROR [c.c.h.v.r.VmwareResource] (DirectAgent-320:ctx-57183274
192.168.13.35, cmd: GetStorageStatsCommand) (logid:0555ab4b) Could not find

Although I can see a volume created on the Solidfire, after a while I
finally get an "Unable to create M Instance" error message on ACS UI.

Any thoughts about what could be wrong?

Does Solidfire plugin work on ACS 4.13.1?

Matt

cloudstack with Sentinel

[조대형]

Hello, Everyone.

Currently, I have installed Traffic Sentinel to collect traffic usage
records. 

 

 

http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/archived-cloudstack-
installation/en/4.11/network_setup.html?highlight=sentinel#guest-network-
usage-integration-for-traffic-sentinel

 

So, I took step 1, 2.

 

At Step 3, I have an error when calling the API command addTrafficMonitor. 



 

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

 

Thanks,

Re: Script SSH and Password Suse Linux 15.1

[Andrija Panic]

I imagine nobody is using SuSE that much - but you should be trying your
luck with cloudinit instead - it has the same password change
functionality, plus some more - and is a better in long run
That cloud-set-guest-password was never updated to work on systemD, so it
only works on older OS like CentOS6/Ubuntu14, etc.

Best,

Re: CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu templates for CloudStack

[Rohit Yadav]

Thanks Wido, that would be useful. Maybe we fork one of the recipes to create 
new default template(s) for CloudStack.


Regards.

主题: CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu templates for CloudStack

Hi,

At PCextreme ( https://www.pcextreme.com/ ) we have thousands of Virtual 
Machines running on Apache CloudStack with the KVM hypervisor.

One of the things which is always a challenge is having proper templates which 
you can use to deploy Virtual Machines rapidly.

We use the Packer tool to build templates for VMs on CloudStack. The code for 
building these is available on Github:
https://github.com/PCextreme/packer-templates/

The resulting QCOW2 files are uploaded to a public S3 bucket:
https://compute.o.auroraobjects.eu/

For example, the Ubuntu 20.04 template from 18-03-2021 can be found here:

https://compute.o.auroraobjects.eu/templates/ubuntu-20.04_master_240a36d2.qcow2

Gitlab's CI/CD is used to build these templates and successful builds of the 
master branch are pushed to S3.

The templates support:

- Growing the root disk upon first boot
- CloudStack password server (via cloud-init)
- cloud-init userdata

The PCextreme IPv6 recursive DNS servers are harcoded into these templates 
which make them not suitable for all deployments, but you can use the code to 
easily build your own templates.

Hope this helps!

Wido

CloudStack Reviews Online

[Ivet Petrova]

Hello all,

I hope you are having a great start of the new week.

I was browsing for some users reviews of CloudStack during the last days and 
found quite a few.
It would be awesome if we can grow the awareness of CloudStack by publishing a 
few reviews online from people using it.
I am pasting links to highly popular website for reviews of different 
technologies and solutions, and hope some of you can spend 5 mins. on leaving 
your honest opinion there:
https://www.trustradius.com/products/apache-cloudstack/reviews
https://www.g2.com/products/cloudstack/reviews
https://www.itcentralstation.com/products/cloudstack-reviews

This would be really useful for people who are choosing between CloudStack and 
other cloud management systems.

Kind regards,
