Re: Automated generation of Windows templates for CloudStack

[Ian Duffy]

Doing this in a fully automated way, however it is not pretty and requires
lots of tools.

I have a jenkins master node that has 3 slave nodes which have vmware,
virtualbox and qemu installed respectively.

Each image: CentOS6, CentOS7, Windows has its own pipeline configured. The
pipeline clones some packer configuration, something like
https://github.com/boxcutter executes a validate, kicks of building across
the three slave nodes uploading the image to some potential releases store.

It then goes on to validate the images by running some serverspec tests.

Assuming all tests pass the images are moved to a release store and upload
to our IaaS via cli clients.

Hope this helps.. https://github.com/boxcutter/windows is most likely
the starting point.

No just on the template. /etc/cloud/cloud-config if memory serves me

Re: Running Multiple Jobs in parallel

[Ian Duffy]

In global settings look for the following:

execute.in.sequence.hypervisor.commands
execute.in.sequence.network.element.commands

If they are set to false, try setting them to true to see if the
behaviour improves.

 Hey,

 You need to install vagrant berkshelf as I mentioned. Vagrant berkshelf
 has
 a dependency on chefdk so you'll need that too.

Re: Cloud-Stack Configuration | Vagrant

(Dropping dev list)

Hi Supun,

The referred [1] either binary-installation-basic (4.3 or 4.4) or
binary-installation-advanced (4.3 only, will work with 4.4 but expect
failures and to have to set your xen network labels manually.) should work
for you.
Just ensure you have your virtualbox interfaces configured accordingly.

I believe your some of your colleagues are using [1].

Hope this helps.

Re: [TESTING] CloudStack 4.3.2 testing

[Ian Duffy]

Fantastic work Rohit! :)

I tested with the dev branch of devcloud4 binary installation basic [1].

Everything worked without issue, brought up a new ubuntu vm based of the
openvm.eu templates [2]. Template came up without issue, console worked,
password and hostname were successfully set.

Created SG group rules for HTTP and SSH. Both worked as expected.

 I want to kick start release process for 4.3.2 next week (15 Dec 2014),
 but before that let's test 4.3 branch and fix any blockers and critical
 issues. I'll meanwhile try to fix other pending issues till the end of
 this week. I've tested 4.3 branch with KVM in both basic and advance
 zones and it has worked for me so far.

 For the purpose of involving users in the testing process I've build a

Re: 4.3.1 API issue with importing LDAP users

[Ian Duffy]

Hi.

Haven't looked at the code but it sounds like a casing issue.

AD is case aware but not case sensitive. I'm unsure of the top of my head
what POSIX LDAP is.

Probably best if we change to suit ADs case awareness. i.e. copy across as
same casing and allow login from any case variation.

Can you open a jira ticket?

Thanks,
Ian

 There’s at least one user in AD defined with a capital letter in front.
 Example:  “Bjones rather than bjones.  Now given that we have a user in

Re: The Simplest way to Run CloudStack on VirtualBox

[Ian Duffy]

Great! Thanks for the information Thomas, you have pretty much the same
environment as myself.

Really unsure what is causing the issue. The error suggests its looking for
a box labelled base, which is never specified in any of the vagrant files.

Can you try something for me? In whatever folder your running vagrant up
from (assuming binary-installation-advanced or binary-installation-basic)
delete the .vagrant folder and modify the VagrantFile to include:

xenserver.vm.box_url: 
https://vagrantcloud.com/duffy/boxes/xenserver/versions/4/providers/virtualbox.box

management.vm.box_url: 
https://vagrantcloud.com/chef/boxes/centos-6.5/versions/1/providers/virtualbox.box


underneath the respective type.vm.box variables.  Hopefully this will
resolve any issues its have automatically finding the boxes through
vagrant-cloud.

Re: The Simplest way to Run CloudStack on VirtualBox

[Ian Duffy]

Thomas,

There's different setups here:

1) Basic - You are expected to run the management server on your host
machine. Only a MySQL, NFS box is supplied along with a Hypervisor box.
2) Advanced - same as above
3) Binary-installation-basic - Full cloud within a virtual environment
4) Binary-installation-advanced - Full cloud within a virtual environment

  Really unsure what is causing the issue. The error suggests its looking
  for
  a box labelled base, which is never specified in any of the vagrant
 files.
 
  Can you try something for me? In whatever folder your running vagrant up
  from (assuming binary-installation-advanced or
 binary-installation-basic)
  delete the .vagrant folder and modify the VagrantFile to include:
 
  xenserver.vm.box_url: 
 
 
 https://vagrantcloud.com/duffy/boxes/xenserver/versions/4/providers/virtualbox.box
  
  management.vm.box_url: 
 
 
 https://vagrantcloud.com/chef/boxes/centos-6.5/versions/1/providers/virtualbox.box
  
 
  underneath the respective type.vm.box variables.  Hopefully this will
  resolve any issues its have automatically finding the boxes through
  vagrant-cloud.

  Great to hear Imesh. If you hit any more issues just shout.
 
  Thinks to keep in mind Devcloud runs VMs in PV mode. When
 you
upload
 an
  ISO it will be registered as hvm only. There's a HVM flag in
 the
  DB
under
  the templates table you can flick to 0 so it boots on PV.
 
  Ubuntu will install no problem just make sure you do it on a
  service
  offering that gives 256mb of ram.
 
  Also keep in mind the default CloudStack service offerings are
  set
   to
use
  shared storage. In devcloud we only have local storage.
 
  If your machine has lots of ram 16gb let me know and we can
  discuss
 giving
  more ram to the hypervisor and system VMS to get better
  performance.

 1. Find the Marvin-0.1.0.tar.gz from a locally build repository of

That almost looks like a vagrant-omnibus book 11.16.0 is a valid
version.

Anyways, I've changed it to use :latest.

Can you do a git pull again? Should hopefully fix it.

My testing just finished, It worked successfully with the earlier changes.

Re: The Simplest way to Run CloudStack on VirtualBox

[Ian Duffy]

Great to hear Imesh. If you hit any more issues just shout.

Thinks to keep in mind Devcloud runs VMs in PV mode. When you upload an
ISO it will be registered as hvm only. There's a HVM flag in the DB under
the templates table you can flick to 0 so it boots on PV.

Ubuntu will install no problem just make sure you do it on a service
offering that gives 256mb of ram.

Also keep in mind the default CloudStack service offerings are set to use
shared storage. In devcloud we only have local storage.

If your machine has lots of ram 16gb let me know and we can discuss giving
more ram to the hypervisor and system VMS to get better performance.

  Subject: [VOTE] Release Apache CloudStack CloudMonkey 5.3.0 (round #6)
 
  Hi All,
 
  I've created a 5.3.0 release of CloudMonkey, with the following
 artifacts up for a vote:
 
  Git Branch and Commit SH:
 
 https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack-cloudmonkey.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/5.3
  Commit: 24faf56d5ab41cef1e9f7fc294f7cf1ab5e3a742
 
  List of changes:
 
 https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack-cloudmonkey.git;a=blob_plain;f=CHANGES;hb=5.3
 
  Source release (checksums and signatures are available at the same
  location):
  https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/cloudstack/cloudmonkey-5.3.0/
 
  PGP release keys (signed using 0EE3D884):
  https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cloudstack/KEYS
 
  Testing procedure:
 
 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/CloudMonkey+Release+test+procedure
 
  This release aims to provide better parameter and filter completion,
 error handling and utf8/unicode support in CloudMonkey and therefore needs
 testing efforts in these areas. UTF-8 encoded string parameters usage needs
 to be tested in API calls, shell and piped calls, for example:
 
  $ create user account=admin username=रोहित lastname=यादव firstname=रोहित
 email=bhais...@apache.org password=正體字/繁體字日本人français한국فارسیpassword123”
  $ list users | grep रोहित
 
  The vote will be open till Thursday EOD (72 hours). Please test this
 release and give your votes. Thanks.
 
  For sanity in tallying the vote, can PMC members please be sure to
 indicate (binding) with their vote?
 
  [ ] +1  approve
  [ ] +0  no opinion
  [ ] -1  disapprove (and reason why)

Re: ACS 4.4.0 - Xenserver OS Templates

@Andrija

Just out of interest, how are you handling the update stage?
Do you install a copy of windows server and let it update naturally from
windows update or an internal WSUS server?

Or are you using DISM and integrating them into the original WIM?

  Is password reset and hostname set working with these templates?

Re: Are openvm.eu Templates Safe?

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Matthew,

I can only speak for the Debian (
http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/debian/vanilla/7/x86_64/ )  and Ubuntu (
http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/ubuntu/vanilla/jenkins/ ) ones. (The others
are save but talk to Nux for validation).

The debian and ubuntu ones are automatically generated through a jenkins
job which executes debootstrap to populate a rootfs. The cloud-init stuff
along with init scripts for password and sshkey injection are placed onto
the box.

The build log for the current debian templates can be viewed at:

http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie/job/build_debian_amd64_template/31/console

The build log for the current ubuntu templates can be viewed at:

http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie/job/build_ubuntu_amd64_template/34/console

I guess I could work on including check sums on those so you can verify
they are what you get from openvm.eu

If you still feel unsure you can easily roll your own jenkins template
building environment.
Using chef and vagrant I have simplified this into a one command step:
vagrant up. By default vagrant provisions this within virtualbox but you
can easily use many of the vagrant provider plugins to provision to
cloudstack, azure, aws, etc.

https://github.com/imduffy15/cloudstack-templates

It will effectively give you a clone of what you see at
http://jenkins.cloudstack.ianduffy.ie along with this you can see all the
scripts at the above URL that were used to build the templates.

Hope this helps!

Ian.

 AFAIK they are built by Ian and Lucian (Nux), so if you trust those two, it
 should be considered safe.

 If you want to be 100% sure you can always download the kickstart files and
 build them on your own.

Re: Broken update from 4.4 to 4.4.1

[Ian Duffy]

 cloud ALL =NOPASSWD : ALL

This is dangerous advice. It grants the cloud user full sudo access without
the requirement of a password.

The following gives more limited access and should allow cloudstack to
function accordingly:

cloud ALL =NOPASSWD : /bin/chmod, /bin/cp, /bin/mkdir, /bin/mount,
/bin/umount, /usr/bin/keytool

Re: Broken update from 4.4 to 4.4.1

[Ian Duffy]

 so I guess CS never updates it, and anyone who
installed a version with a sudo config missing keytool will probably hit
this same problem eventually

Correct. The modification of the sudoers file isn't done via the binary
package so it will not change on update.
It will only change if cloudstack-setup-management is run.

Release notes should probably be modified to include this.

On 25 October 2014 01:20, Kirk Kosinski kirkkosin...@gmail.com wrote:

 Right, it is not ideal, though it was like that for a long time (since
 at least CS 2.x).  I see that the sudo config was changed recently to be
 more locked down, but it did not include keytool due to CLOUDSTACK-1389.
  I checked a 4.3 setup which was upgraded from 4.2 and it still has the
 old unrestricted config so I guess CS never updates it, and anyone who
 installed a version with a sudo config missing keytool will probably hit
 this same problem eventually (whenever keytool is run).

 Since two days, we have a login problem on server 1. The login pages load
 correctly. But after typing the correct password (local or LDAP one) the
 browser hangs.
 The first occurrence, two days ago. We restart the management server and
 the problem went away. Today, we cannot anymore use the server 1 and we
 have to user the server 2.
 Both servers are to our knowledge identical. And no change neither have
 been done on the infrastructure configuration.

 Is anybody here has experienced a such problem or have any clue ?

 The server ran for many weeks without any outage like this until now.

 Hi,



 Just wondering if rather than downloading, installing and testing for
 myself, someone might happen to know whether the CS 4.4.1(RC) management
 server will work happily on Centos 7 yet? I understand that a patch has
 been made for 4.5/master (
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-7106) but does anyone
 know
 if this has been added into 4.4.1 or whether this has been treated as a
 feature as opposed to a bug fix and hence not included in 4.4.1? The docs
 don’t mention RHEL 7 or Centos 7 but they’re not always completely up to
 date. Just to be clear, I’m not referring to using Centos 7 as a hypervisor
 with KVM, just the management server side of things.



 Thanks and sorry if I’m being lazy here.

Re: Using ssh keys for authentication

[Ian Duffy]

Hi,

Please see the init scripts available over at:
https://github.com/shankerbalan/cloudstack-scripts

Alternatively, you can use cloud-init with cloudstack as a data source:
http://shankerbalan.net/blog/cloud-init-supports-cloudstack-as-data-source/

Normally one would bake these into their template.

Once you have your template created you can bring up a new instance with an
ssh key assigned and login using it:
http://shankerbalan.net/blog/ssh-keys-on-cloudstack-guest-instances-using-cloud-init/

 template from the instance which created in section 5.2.1?​
 Because in section 5.2.3, it says us to give the template ID in order to

Hi Suneel,

You will need to grant your cloud user access to the databases accordingly.

 Right, the commands go through vCenter, similar to commands to XS hosts
 going through the pool master.  But the command sequences will be
 host-specific, which you can see in the the logs, the commands can get
 stuck waiting for previous ones sent to the same host.

 Does your 4.1 environment have the following Global Settings, and if so,
 what are the values?

 execute.in.sequence.hypervisor.commands
 execute.in.sequence.network.element.commands

 If they are set to false, try setting them to true to see if the
 behavior improves.

assignVirtualMachine - Change domain (4.1.1)

[Ian Duffy]

Hi All,

I'm wanting to use assignVirtualMachine to change the domain and account a
VM belongs to within Cloudstack.

Within version 4.1.1 this is not supported:
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api/apidocs-4.1/root_admin/assignVirtualMachine.html

Transferring ownership to any domain was only implemented in a later
release.

Has anybody got a database modification work around for this?

I'm looking at modifying the domain_id, domain_uuid, account_id,
account_name, account_type for both volume and instance. I haven't tested
this yet, but I would love to hear anybody elses experience.

Thanks,

Ian

 Hi All,

 I'm wanting to use assignVirtualMachine to change the domain and account a
 VM belongs to within Cloudstack.

 Within version 4.1.1 this is not supported:
 http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api/apidocs-4.1/root_admin/assignVirtual
 Machine.html

 Transferring ownership to any domain was only implemented in a later
 release.

 Has anybody got a database modification work around for this?

 I'm looking at modifying the domain_id, domain_uuid, account_id,
 account_name, account_type for both volume and instance. I haven't tested
 this yet, but I would love to hear anybody elses experience.

 Thanks,

 Ian

Not seeing parallel power on events in vCenter

[Ian Duffy]

Hi All,

I'm using Cloudstack 4.1.1 against vCenter 5.

If I create 5 instances on cloudstack. I see the 5 disks get created in
parallel but the power up and power down events do not.

Is this expected functionality? Or should power up and power down events
occur at the same time? If so is there some configuration around this?

If I go into vCenter I can manually power up and power down machines in
parallel without issue.

Thanks,

Ian

Re: Management Server won't connect after cluster shutdown and restart

[Ian Duffy]

Ilya,

My case wasn't generic/a cloudstack fault in the end (manual editing of the
database had occurred putting things into an invalid state.).

The others on this thread might be able to provide you with information
about your issues. I found bumping the log level up to trace provided a
much greater insight.

 Can you tell us more please.

 In my rather large environments, I may need to do several restarts for
 cloudstack to come up properly.

 Otherwise it complains that SSVM and CPVM are not ready to launch in Zone
 X.

  Hi Ian,

 I've seen this kind of behaviour before with KVM hosts reconnecting.

 There’s a select …. WITH UPDATE; query on the op_ha_work table which
 locks
 the table, stopping other hosts updating their status. If there are a lot
 of entries in there they all lock each other out. Deleting the entries
 fixed the problem, but you have to deal with hosts and vms being up/down
 yourself.

 So check the op_ha_work table for lots of entries which can lock up the
 database. If you can check the database for the queries that it's
 handling
 - that would be best.

 Also check that the management server and MySQL DB is tuned for the load
 that being thrown at it.
 (http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX132020)
 Remember if you have other services such as Nagios or puppet/chef
 directly
 reading the DB, that adds to the number of connections into the mysql db
 -
 I have seen the management server starved of mysql connections when a lot
 of hosts are brought back online.

 Hi Ian,

 So the root of the problem was that the machines where not started up in
 the correct order.

 My plan had been to stop all VMs from CS, then stop CS, then shutdown the
 VM hosts.  On the other end the hosts needed to be brought up first and
 once they are ok then bring up the CS machine and make sure everything
 was
 in the same state it thought things were when it was shutdown.
   Unfortunately CS came up before everything else was the way it expected
 it to be and I did not realize that at the time.

 To resolve I went back to my CS db backup from right after I shut it down
 the MS, made sure the VM hosts were all as expected and then started the
 MS.

 Hi Pierre-Luc

 Have you seen the post by Chip? He details how to publish events to
 RabbitMQ:
 http://www.chipchilders.com/blog/2013/7/16/tapping-into-apache-cloudstack-events-via-amqp.html

 The logstash docs then discuss getting the data from rabbitmq:
 http://logstash.net/docs/1.3.2/inputs/rabbitmq

 Never tried it but looks straight forward.

 To download default templates, you need internet access. You can also look
 into setting up proxy (if you have internet access through proxy).

Re: Help with CloudStack using Local Storage

[Ian Duffy]

 I changed the option in global settings system.vm.use.local.storage to
 true.


Good, did you restart the management server after you did this?



 How can I define that the Secondary Storage VM and the Console Proxy use
 this service
 offering?


No need to do this. The secondary storage vm and console proxy vm will go
of the global setting option.

Re: Downloading templates from HTTPS

[Ian Duffy]

 Not aware of any, see if something comes up in global settings.

Had a look through them didn't find anything that seemed related.

 We also have a limitation - that kinda bugs me, we are forced to use
either port 80 or 443, but lots of folks run webservers on non-standard
ports..

Yes, I have ran into this many times before. 8080 is allowed too.

It would be nice to see the ports specified via a global settings variable.
I think I recall conversation about this on the list a very long time ago.

Debian + Cloud-Init

[Ian Duffy]

Hi All,

In the past i've used the community supplied scripts over at
https://github.com/shankerbalan/cloudstack-scripts for doing injection of
password / ssh keys.

I'm trying to move to cloud-init to handle this for me however I am having
some issues.

I modified my /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg file to use CloudStack as a datasource:

datasource_list: ['CloudStack']

datasource:

  CloudStack: {}


I also set the following:

disable_root: False

user: root

ssh_pwauth: True

ssh_deletekeys: True

ssh_genkeytypes: ['rsa', 'dsa']

ssh_svcname: ssh


On booting up the machine I see the script run successfully and pull the
metadata down from the VR. The hostname is also set and new ssh keys are
generated.

On attempting to login as root with the password provided on the Cloudstack
UI I am unsuccessful. I'm unsure why.


Anybody got an idea where I'm going wrong?


Thanks,

Ian

Re: Debian + Cloud-Init

Lucian,

You were spot on. It is not supported. I've done similar to your work
around by giving a init.d script.

I've upload a automated system using packer for generating a OVA of a
debian x64 template to github
https://github.com/imduffy15/cloudstack-templates

I included a built version of the template for xenserver to save somebody
time in the future.
https://github.com/imduffy15/cloudstack-templates/releases

If people are interested I might build this out to generate KVM, Xen,
HyperV and vSphere images and add CentOS and Ubuntu.

Hi Carlos,

I'm using 0.7.3-2 from the Debian Wheezy backports repo.

I didn't have any issues acquiring metadata as long as I used
isc-dhcp-client as the dhcp client (Had issues when using pump).

I believe even with your patch the password on the root account will not be
set.

 Hi Ian,
 What version of cloud-init are you using?  The default one that comes with

Re: AD LDAP authentication failing post CS 4.2.1 to CS 4.3 upgrade

No. Email is only required for imported users as we must create a
cloudstack account for them and that requires an email address.

When you add an ldap server cloudstack attempts to bind to it to validate
your settings. If the bind fails the server will not add.

 Can you please confirm your global ldap settings?

 Are you able to ‎import ldap users from AD?

Yes. http://imgur.com/df29OOm

 Hi All,

 Just after trying to recreate the issue, I failed to do so successfully.

 I installed 4.2, configured LDAP, verified it worked. Upgraded to 4.3,
 logged in as admin, verified the LDAP configuration was present.
 Logged out and attempted to login as an LDAP user.

 Its seems there is a problem and values are not configured properly after 
 upgrade. Please log a defect.

 Hope you set the following attributes .

 Ldap.basedn
 Ldap.bind.password
 Ldap.username.attribute- sAMAccountName
 Ldap.user.object --user
 Ldap.search.group.principle

 All the above fields are mandatory.

 Work around I followed is : used old api to register ldap and created same 
 AD user in CS. And make sure that all global parameters set.

 Hi Sadhu,

 No changes from when i had AD authentication configured on ACS 4.2.1 where 
 all worked fine.

 Still no joy with ldap authentication on ACS 4.3.0 even with the steps 
 listed below.

 HI Antonio,

 Hope Registered user has list capabilities .


 I think there is an issue while importing ldap user if any user has missing 
 attributes(like mail,user name), it fail to import user successfully but if 
 we create a same AD user in cloudstack manually with different password and 
 try to login with ad user with ad password .I am able to login successfully.

 Assume  AD user: test ,password:_ Try below scenario:

 1.make sure AD  user has  list capabilities or better try with user with 
 admin privileges 2.register ldap  by providing ldap IP and port 3. provide 
 the required parameters in the global configuration 4. restart the MS 
 5.create a same AD user with different password(user 
 :test,password:password) in cs manually 6.try to login with AD user with AD 
 password(user :test,password:_)

 Hope this will help.

 Are there any logs in cloudstack that records the ldap activity?

its just OMCORE. This should be in the form
cn=username,dc=za,dc=omlac,dc=net or whatever the exact path to your
bind user is.

 CCing Rajani on this to see if she has any ideas.

 If you haven't done so already can you try remove/re-add the LDAP server via
 the UI.

 Are there any logs in cloudstack that records the ldap activity?

 On failed adding of a LDAP server you will get a message back saying so and
 the server will not add.

 On authentication failure of an ldap user it will appear in the cloudstack
 logs.

Re: CloudStack Authentication

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Maria,

All the user authenticators broken up into plugins.

Best way to learn about them is to read some of the code:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/tree/master/plugins/user-authenticators

With Cloudstack it will attempt to use each authenticator on login. If one
fails it will try another, if they all fail the login fails. If one
succeeds the user is granted access.

Hope this helps, the developer list might be able to assist more.

Re: LDAP Authentication with CloudStack 4.2

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Brent,

Just to confirm, are you going against a windows activedirectory or
something more along the lines of openldap? Have you adjusted the
queryfilter accordingly?

Never found the UI great for doing this, so will explain the process with
cloudmonkey.

ldap config hostname=dc.domain.tld searchbase=CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=tld
queryfilter=(sAMAccountName=%u)
binddn=CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=tld bindpass=password
port=389

You should get a response back of your settings to confirm they've been set
successfully.

After this it is just a case of creating a new Cloudstack User with a
matching username. It should automatically look them up on login and
authenticate with their LDAP password.

Re: How to reset admin password of CloudStack WebUI?

[Ian Duffy]

 I hope this does not mean that user passwords are stored in plain text in the 
 database table.

They are not. The authenticators support:
   - PlainText
   - SHA1
   - MD5
   - LDAP

I believe SHA1 is the default, but from my experience once one match
of any of the authenticators are found it will cause a successful
login.

 Hi Diggy,

 The passwords are stored in the user_view table. With the way the 
 authentication works we can just insert a plain text password for the reset 
 and then change it via the user panel once logged in.

 Find your user:
 select username, password from user_view;

 Set a password of password for that user:
 update user_view set password = 'password' where username='admin';

 Login to Cloudstack with admin/password navigate over to accounts, admin, 
 view users, admin, change password.

Re: How to reset admin password of CloudStack WebUI?

 Still curious as to why one can enter a plain text value for the admin 
 directly into the database.  Does CloudStack look for the password value 
 explicitly or would any value do?

It will loop threw all authenticators until a valid response is found,
personally I think this is bad. Its been discussed on the dev list a
few times.

To expand by example: (Doesn't occur necessarily in this order)
 - User inserts example123 as their password.
 - Password is SHA1ed and checked against DB - Fails
 - Password is MD5ed and checked against the DB - Fails
 - Password is used in an attempt to bind against LDAP - Fails
 - Password is sent as raw and checked against the DB - Passes
 - User logs in successfully

Re: ldap query filter

[Ian Duffy]

 ROOT/user1 is able to authenticate as ROOT/MYDOMAIN/user1 using ldap
 password.


Interesting never thought of that possibility. This is partially due to the
nature of how Cloudstack's authentication engine works.

So what happens is when you attempt to login your username/password is
passed down through different authentication systems so...
Attempt auth against DB using SHA1 pass
Attempt auth against DB using MD5 pass

Attempt auth using LDAP

For the LDAP stage only the username/password is given. The Username is
looked up in LDAP and a principle. Using this principle and the supplied
password a bind is made. Should be bind be successful the user is
authenticated.

As far as I'm aware there is no work around for this without modifying
source. My general rule of thumb for it would be to not mix authentication,
either go all internal CS users or all LDAP based users.

 The CloudStack query filter wildcards are:
 Query Filter Wildcard  Description
 %u  User name
 %e  Email address
 %n  First and last name

 However, I faced a situation when we have two different domains with
 identical users.
 Let's consider ROOT/user1 has corresponding entry at ldap and
 ROOT/MYDOMAIN/user1 does not.
 ROOT/user1 is able to authenticate as ROOT/MYDOMAIN/user1 using ldap
 password.

 My question is: is there query filter wildcard to match domain name ?

 env used: CS 4.1.0

Re: ldap query filter

[Ian Duffy]

From what I recall of code that I browsed through the network domain
field is not read during the LDAP authentication phase.

 To add, if root/user1 and root/mydomain/user1 have the network domain
 credentials set, they should look in ldap, right??

  Interesting never thought of that possibility. This is partially due to
 the
  nature of how Cloudstack's authentication engine works.
 
  So what happens is when you attempt to login your username/password is
  passed down through different authentication systems so...
  Attempt auth against DB using SHA1 pass
  Attempt auth against DB using MD5 pass
  
  Attempt auth using LDAP
 
  For the LDAP stage only the username/password is given. The Username is
  looked up in LDAP and a principle. Using this principle and the supplied
  password a bind is made. Should be bind be successful the user is
  authenticated.
 
  As far as I'm aware there is no work around for this without modifying
  source. My general rule of thumb for it would be to not mix
 authentication,
  either go all internal CS users or all LDAP based users.

Re: Guest VM password reset - Complexity

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Gaspare,

As far as I'm aware there is no way to do this without modifying the source.

The generation of password resets are handled by this piece of code:
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;a=blob;f=utils/src/com/cloud/utils/PasswordGenerator.java;h=022afd0d8bda7eaba84a8b67c595e676158837d4;hb=HEAD

It is hard coded to generate passwords of length 6.

Hope this helps,
Ian

Re: Password Management for Templates

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Indra,

Came across that issue myself the other day.

I just grabbed the scripts from this github repo:
https://github.com/shankerbalan/cloudstack-scripts

They worked for me.

 I tried to download the cloud-set-guest-password for Linux:

 But it seems that the location might have been changed? Can anyone advise

 Looking forward to your reply, thank you.

Manager on FreeBSD

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Guys,

Just a purely out of interest post here.

Has anybody tried running Cloudstack on FreeBSD in a production environment?

If so did you encounter any issues?

Thanks,
Ian

Re: Manager on FreeBSD

[Ian Duffy]

 You mean as a guest?

No just for running the manager. I'd imagine there is no issues since
its java based but said I'd send a mail to get the community
experience if any.

Re: Windows Server 2008 Template

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the replies.

It seems Kirk(Jantzer) was correct. For whatever reason when I put the
xen tools into the template it got a link-local address. When I placed
them to install with the sysprep answer file it worked as expected.

Thanks!
Ian

 Ian - As the other Kirk said (I don't get to say that often :-P), if it's
 getting that kind of IP, it could mean the NIC drivers aren't getting
 installed correctly. I've found Windows works better in CS when you run
 post scripts that are kicked off via a sysprep answer file, rather than
 just wrapping things up in an image.

 Hi, Ian. Is it getting an 169.254.x.x IP?  If so, it means it cannot get
 an IP via DHCP.  In this case, try setting the IP manually to the IP it
 should have, then try to diagnose network connectivity (ping virtual
 router, ping other VMs, etc.).

  Shutdown the machine and created a template.
 
  I created an instance using the template and the instance came up but:

  2) No gateway was set
 
  Any idea why this is happening and how to fix it?

Re: openldap and cloudstack

[Ian Duffy]

Hi Dean,

As Sadhu mentioned OpenLDAP is supported within the current
implementation within Cloudstack 4.0 =

Configuration of cloudstack:
http://imduffy15.blogspot.ie/2013/06/configuring-cloudstack-to-authenticate.html
(My own post)

Installation of OpenLDAP:
http://imduffy15.blogspot.ie/2013/06/setting-up-openldap-server.html

Official docs:
https://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.2/html/Admin_Guide/LDAPserver-for-user-authentication.html

Other blogs:

(Contains a user import script)
http://kirkjantzer.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/ldap-authentication-in-cloudstack-v401.html

If you need any help getting it up just shout. I'm currently working
on improving it, hopefully these changes will be seen in Cloudstack
4.3

Thanks!
Ian

 Hello everyone

 Just wondering if I could use openldap for authentication with CS? docs says 
 it works with apacheDS but no where it says openldap.

 Dose anyone know if it is possible? openldap is more popular and I'm more 
 familiar with it.

 Thank you

Thanks for the replies guys.

@Abhi - Cool, its non-gsoc related so don't want to spend too much
time at it. Just felt I should learn more about Cloudstack within my
spare time(weekends) outside of its code base and user authentication
methods. Think I nearly have it working the way I want, there's the
odd terms that confuse me a little so I might take you up on your IM

Hi,

Create advanced isolated network.
In advanced isolated network VMs gets internal ip address from the
virtual router DHCP ip address. On network you can acquire public ip
address which get configured on the VR.
To the reach VMs from the public side you can configure the either port
forwarding or static nat rules along with firewall rules on the public ip
address.

 Hi Ilya/List

 I was reading the post over at

https://cwiki.apache.org/CLOUDSTACK/cloudstack-advanced-network-tutorial
-s
 tep-by-step.html
 and was wondering If I could get some information from you(or anybody
 else who can contribute).

 I want a setup where by instances are brought up with a Public IP and
 an Internal IP for communication with other instances both got from
 DHCP running on a physical gateway.

 In terms of networking with xen(preferably) or vcenter what networking
 is required?

 I'm assuming I'll need the following:

 Management Network
 Cloudstack Manager
 Hypervisor
 Storage

 Guest Network (Instance gets some private IP supplied by DHCP on
 physical gateway)
 Hypervisor

 Public Network (Instance gets some public IP supplied by DHCP on
 physical gateway)
 Hypervisor

 Is it just a matter of
 1) Creating a network offering as described here:

http://blog.remibergsma.com/2012/03/10/howto-create-a-network-in-cloudst
ac
 k-without-a-virtual-router/
 2) Creating a public and guest network within the zone
 3) Creating matching labels for the public and guest networks in xen
 pointing to the uuid of the network cards

 I think what is tripping me up the most is the IP address space
 required for a pod. I understand a pod contains hosts and primary
 storage so am I correct in thinking that my pod address space in the
 above outlined configuration would just be some addresses within the
 address space given to management network?

 Thanks,
 Ian
