Hi Everyone,

The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache CloudStack has invited Boris 
Stoyanov to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that he has 
accepted.

Please join me in congratulating Bobby!


Being a committer enables easier contribution to the project since there is no 
need to go via the patch submission process. This should enable better 
productivity.
Being a PMC member enables assistance with the management and to guide the 
direction of the project.

Re: Rename an instance

2018-09-19 Thread Dingane Hlaluku
Hi Ugo

CloudStack assigns three names for guest VM instance for use in different 
contexts and only allows user control for 2. It does now allow alterations to 
the instance name.
"Instance name – a unique, immutable ID that is generated by CloudStack and 
cannot be modified by the user. This name conforms to the requirements in IETF 
RFC 1123."
See documentation: 
http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.11.1.0/adminguide/virtual_machines.html#about-working-with-virtual-machines

Dingane

Re: Github Issues

+1 as a new developer for this community, I find Github much easier for me to 
create/track both issues and PRs.

Github is the platform that is most comfortable for most users and
developers to collaborate.  Everyone knows it, regardless of their
background, so it opens our community to a wider group of people. Those are
my thoughts anyway...

Re: _configDao.isPremium() please help where this information comes from.

2018-07-11 Thread Dingane Hlaluku
Hi Stephan


The Noredist CloudStack build has additional dependencies that you need to 
download and install yourself. The instruction on how to get and install this 
jars is detailed under the section 'Dependencies' here: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/How+to+build+CloudStack


After installing these jars, build using:


mvn clean install -Dnoredist -P developer,systemvm



You can also download prebuilt System VM templates for your specific hypervisor 
here: http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/4.11/


These templates need to be extracted and installed in your secondary storage, 
and this can be done using this script:


scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt


Here is an example below of how to download, extract and install system vm 
template. The NFS server is configured in the localhost.


wget 
http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/4.11/systemvmtemplate-4.11.1-kvm.qcow2.bz2

./scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt \

   -m / -f systemvmtemplate-4.11.1-kvm.qcow2.bz2

   -h kvm -o localhost -r cloud -d cloud



I hope this helps.


Regards

Dingane

Hey Boris!

This isn't the problem, just setting

mvn install -P deps -Dnoredist -Dnonoss; # this target doesn't work

export ACS_BUILD_OPTS="-Dnoredist -Dnonoss"; dpkg-buildpackage

I don't know what's the difference between noredist and nonoss.


Anyway if I do build the packages with noredist (which is mentioned way more 
often than nonoss in different documentations / Install.txt's),
I do not know how to include the respective *jar's getting baked into the 
systemvmtemplate. Otherwise the cloud service won't start and no further
configuration of the systemvm will take place. Say: it won't connect to the 
management.

I'm currently using tools/appliance -> build.sh systemvmtemplate, but afaik, 
these scripts doesn't honor noredist?
