Thank You
Thank you very much for helping out with cloudstack installation. I really appreciate your willingness to assist. It was my first time and I couldn't have asked for more than the help I got. Best Regards,
thank you :)
Hey everyone, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that helped me remediate Cloudstack issues or delve into architecture details last few weeks! POC launch and user feedback was excellent! Best regards, Jordan
RE: New Initial Setup Questions (THANK YOU in advance)
The way HA works is ACS will monitor your VMs and HV, if one HV goes down it will attempt to restart the VMs running on that HV on another HV, but for this to happen the new HV needs to be able to access the storage those VMs were using and this can only happen if you use shared storage. Do I make sense? Hmm. Not 100% sure I understand, but getting closer :) So, shared storage would be a separate storage server, plus at least 1 extra for a failover? And, if I understand correctly, this HA option is all configured and enabled within the CloudStack management console itself? Sorry if I'm not picking up quickly, but I'm getting it a bit more clear understanding with a few questions for clarification sake. Basically, say I'd like to start a small initial setup to offer cloud VM's (or popular term vps / virtual private server in the cloud). I'll have one server strictly for the CS management console, I'll have one HV + 1 extra for failover for CPU/Memory, and then I'll have a storage server + another for failover.

I think in Cisco-speak that would mean port channel. Cloudstack has at least 3 types of networks: management, secondary storage, internet uplink. Also take into consideration links to primary network storage if you want it. The network bits are explained in the documentation.

RE: New Initial Setup Questions (THANK YOU in advance)
Thank you. One last question (most likely)... What difference would it between having a separate storage server as SANS or NAS (especially utilizing something like FreeNAS) for live vm storage + failover? At least in the instance of using CS for a cloud platform. Thank you. -Original Message- From: Nux!

New Initial Setup Questions (THANK YOU in advance)
One more shot.how's the below for a decent, initial CS setup? Server #1 Purpose: CloudStack Control Panel Install (Management Server) Qty: 1 VM Machine (one production, one backup/HA) Cores: about 2-4 4GB RAM Server #2 Purpose: HV (CPU + Memory + Storage) Qty: 1 plus 1 for failover (HA) Dual Hexacore CPUs 128GB RAM 12 x 2TB SAS (or 6x1TB SSD) RAID10 Server #3 Purpose: Backup (NAS) Qty: 1 Dual Quad Core CPUs 16GB RAM 12 x 2TB SATA RAID10 Question: for server #2 (HV), the CPU example is 24 Cores total. So, technically speaking I can offer a max of 6 VM's with 4 CPU cores allowanced to each one, correct? Does CS allow overselling by any means on CPU/Memory? Am I missing anything from above initial hardware setup? Anyone have any high availability (HA) setup recommendations for all 3 servers? I mean does CS have an HA config option within its own management console or is HA something done manually outside the CS software, but within the o/s on the nodes?

You can oversell CPU massively, everyone does, disk and memory are usually the bottlenecks. Overselling memory is trickier, if you want to sell VPS/public cloud I'd advise against it, memory is reasonably cheap. Am I missing anything from above initial hardware setup? The network is a very important bit of the setup. Make sure you have quality equipment and redundancy, there's a saying: your cloud is as good as your network. Ideally you should have separate and redundant (bonded) links for management, secondary storage and Internet uplink (public). Anyone have any high availability (HA) setup recommendations for all 3 servers? I mean does CS have an HA config option within its own management console or is HA something done manually outside the CS software, but within the o/s on the nodes? Cloudstack can and will perform HA if so instructed, it's built-in, you don't need to configure anything special in the HV. HA requires: - service offerings with HA enabled - shared storage for the above offerings, HA is not possible with local storage Good luck!

Thank you!
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone over the past couple weeks for answering all of the questions I have had. I am a cloudstack convert from vmware, so it has taken me a bit of time getting used to everything in cloudstack.
Thank you Apache community !
Hello community , Let me take the opportunity to thank each one you in the Apache CloudStack community for your valuable contributions. It has been a pleasure working with you all and unfortunately I have quit my $dayjob for pursuing my higher studies in the US which means that I might not get sufficient time to contribute to Apache CloudStack. I have been involved in developing the UI component of CloudStack and being a committer , I feel it's my responsibility to help the community out with whatsoever queries one might have. You might get to see delayed responses from my side in case your queries are addressed directly to the UI component of CloudStack.I might not get time to code a feature but I can surely try to help someone with the UI code in case someone's interesting in developing some UI module. Otherwise, if not myself , I'll try to make sure that there's someone who is able to cater to your queries. Thanks, Pranav
