Re: [one-users] iscsi target as a guest disk

[Tengvall, Ilkka (NSN - FI Espoo)]

Hi,

I'm writing related to issue:

http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/1025

Ruben, thanks for answer, you commented there that iscsi could be used
as a disk:

"you should be able to use iSCSI block devices with
DISK=[TYPE=block,SOURCE=]."

I tried to follow you instruction, I don't see it working. What am I
missing, since the oned tries to cp the iscsi image, instead as pass it
to guest as disk:


$ cat
iscsi-vm.txt
  

NAME=f16-min-iscsi
USER=oneadmin   
GROUP=oneadmin   
PUBLIC=No

  BUS=virtio,

Creating the machine using the disk:


$ onevm create iscsi-vm.txt
ID: 10


and after it fails I see from the logs that it tried to copy the image
(cp), instead of passing it to libvirt as a virtio device:

Hi,
It appears that you are using the tm_ssh transfer drivers. Use tm_lvm
transfer manager drivers instead.

Re: [one-users] application integration (service publishing) in OpenNebula?

[biro lehel]

Hello Fabian. Thanks again for your reply. I really appreciate you for taking 
the time.

I read what you wrote a couple of times, and (I think) it helped me to clarify 
some things. But still, I have a few questions and issues for which I am 
looking for a clear answer. I put them in bullets:

As I understand so far, OpenNebula has two types of users: the administrator, 
who basically has control over "everything", and the users, who can 
authenticate securely, instantiate some VM's, and do the work necessary for 
them. My question: can OpenNebula have another "layer" of users, some kind of 
"end-users"? What I mean is: suppose I, as a user of OpenNebula, using my 
created VM's, create a Web Service, which I publish on the Internet. Can anyone 
access this (someone who has no idea about the private cloud, someone who is 
simply accessing the URL), and by this way uses my Web Service (created on the 
VM's by the means of OpenNebula), so, basically, uses OpenNebula "remotely" 
(without knowing it)? Or this just doesn't make sense, since the whole idea of 
a private cloud is not to provide/publish information and services to the 
outside world, and this is not even possible since the virtual context?Are the 
most important reasons for installing OpenNebula
 the performance needs? Is there any other reason because of which I may want 
to install it, besides the fact that I might need multiple VM's (that I can 
manage) to perform a task (and to achieve platform interoperability)? I mean 
this has be the main point of it, right?When the load reaches its maximum (on a 
task which a user tries to perform on OpenNebula VM's), are new VM's created 
automatically (it the physical resources allow this) to support the performace 
needs? Or the only way of creating VM's is the "manual" one?Can OpenNebula be 
installed on any type of physical network, or does it have some special needs? 
Suppose I have an intranet in a company environment, with more interconnected 
physical machine that I'm actually going to use, does this change anything? Do 
I have to set up a separate physical network for the physical machines that I'm 
planning to include in the private cloud?


That's it for now, I don't want to ask for too much information all at once.:) 
I really hope that these questions are easy-to-answer for a professional, and 
will not take much time (for you Fabian, or for anyone else who thinks that can 
help me).

Thank you, and waiting for your response,
Biro Lehel.

Look at the VM like at any other physical computer. It is just a container (eg. 
a virtual computer) where you can install the OS of your choice. The 
installation of your application inside the OS of your VM needs to be done the 
same as you would do it on a physical computer. But the installation of the OS 
in the VM needs to be done first. See my recent posting "Re: Creating virtual 
machines from scratch" [1] to this mailing list.

  [1] 
http://lists.opennebula.org/pipermail/users-opennebula.org/2011-December/007156.html

Look at an OpenNeubla cluster / cloud like on an additional abstraction layer 
between a physical computer and your OS installation.

An example:
If you have 3 computers, you can install on each one the OS of your choice and 
run it, but then you have only 3 concurrent running OS installation available. 
With OpenNebula you need to install Linux on all 3 computers (1x front-end and 
2x cluster nodes). The cluster nodes also need to support some kind of 
hypervisor (eg. KVM or XEN). Then you install OpenNebula on the front-end and 
then adjust the configuration for the shared file systems to be used by the 
cluster nodes. Then you can create VMs (virtual machines / virtual computers) 
and deploy them through the front-end (with Sunstone you also have a web GUI). 
Now you can create as many VMs as the two cluster nodes can support (depending 
on CPU power an available memory). You even can stop or terminate VMs and reuse 
them (with persistent image) at a later time.

Hi,Biro

You raised many questions. Some are openNebula specific and others seems 
general to all cloud computing environments.

To my understanding, this is a general question for all clouds. A cloud must 
have users to manage and maintain the cloud itself(cloud infrastructure), such 
users ard administrators. A cloud should also have cloud customers to which the 
cloud provide services(e.g. VMs, storages). Such users are cloud users who can 
login into the cloud and use cloud provided resources. The last kind of users 
are application users who are the customers of your applications. OpenNebula 
cann't know such users in advance, so it doesn't provide any mechanism to 
support this kinds of users.
(These are just my personal understanding!)

The main reason for using cloud is have many characters: on-demond self 
service, improving physical server utilization and so on. you can refer to this 
cloud definition to have a deeper understanding:

untial now, OpenNebula can't do such job automatically, but you may implement 
such function based on it. (in fact Amazon EC2 have implemented such functions).

OpenNebula can installed  smothly to ethernet physical networks (I am not sure 
exactly about other types of network).

As Fabian said, consider each VM as a normal machine. Anything you
expose on it through a network will be visible, just as with a normal
machine. The idea of a "private cloud" is to hide the physical
location of the virtual machines (on what computer does each reside)
and hide the fact that the VM is not a physical machine.

   OpenNebula is a "hypervisor for hypervisors". The reason you want to
install it is to provide a means of managing a cluster of servers which
provide virtualization. OpenNebula most importantly allows migration of
VMs between physical machines and resource usage monitoring.

  I think you miss the point of what a "cloud manager" or a
"virtualization middleware" does. See OpenNebula as a middleware over
simple virtualization mechanisms such as KVN, Xen, HyperV, etc.
OpenNebula only provides a means of managing heterogeneous virtualized
environments. Automatic scaling of virtual machines is out of the scope
of this middleware.

 The basic idea is that a VM is created, deployed, and the life cycle of
the VM is monitored using OpenNebula. The VM can be
started/stopped/migrated but automatic scaling is not possible, due to
different factors, among which the unavailability of such a mechanism on
the underlying hypervisors (only XEN allows changing the VM allocated
memory without recreating the machine).

  Any scaling mechanism should be built on top of OpenNebula.

  If you read the OpenNebula documentation, the only requirements are that
a bridge exists on each OpenNebula node to connect the virtual machines.
To what that bridge connects, it is up to the infrastructure provider,
but no special requirements are needed in terms of network for the VMs.

 The "live migration" mechanism requires a storage NAS and that can
influence the network, but mainly any network will do fine with
OpenNebula.

Re: [one-users] iscsi target as a guest disk

[Jaime Melis]

Hi,

you should use tm_shared instead of tm_ssh (tm_lvm won't work either for
your setup).

Regarding your first issue: managing iscsi targets with OpenNebula, there
is no native way to handle iscsi block devices with OpenNebula. What you
can do out-of-the-box is to use any block device available in the target
host (just like you're trying to do in the above logs), whether it's iscsi
or not. However I reckon that's too limited for your scenario, since it
requires an administrator to discover the iscsi targets on the target host.

We've opened a ticket to provide native support for iscsi targets (planned
for OpenNebula 3.4):
http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/1032

We've been thinking about the possible implementation, and for the moment
we believe the best approach will be the following:

1) Define a iscsi handler, such as: iscsi://hostname/target, which will be
used in image templates under the SOURCE attribute:
DISK = [ TYPE = block, SOURCE="iscsi://my-san/my-lun", TARGET = "hda",
CLONE=NO]

2) Modify the TM drivers to handle in a specific way sources starting with
"iscsi://" (just like we did in tm_lvm for "/dev/*" devices [1])
The driver will run a re-scan of the iscsi targets, and create a symlink
for "disk.0" to point to the new /dev/ device.

[one-users] Possibility of adding multiple EC2 hosts

[Prakhar Srivastava]

Hi,
Is it possible to add multiple EC2 hosts? This primarily means ability to
add multiple EC2 accounts in Opennebula. Since there exists a single
centralized configuration for EC2 driver configuration, only one host can
be added.

[one-users] does oned check which is the proper host for new VM?

[davood ghatreh]

Hi,

I have 4 host servers, and opennebula installed and configured. whenever I
create a VM it choose host2, regardless of how much this server remained
resources are. for example, I created 10 vms (not simultaneously) and they
were all created on host2! If I create other vms, they will be also created
on host2! other servers have no load and no vms and they are all enabled in
opennebula. how can I make oned to properly decide which host has enough
resources to create new vm on it.
Another issue is, oned doesn't check VM required resources and compare it
to host resources to chose proper host. host2 has 2G of RAM and host4 has
4G RAM. I tried to create a vm with 4G RAM. opennebula choose host2, as
always. Then after PROLOG states, it was unable to start the VM because
there were not enough resources for this VM on host2. I disabled other
hosts in opennebula and just left host4 enabled and resubmit the vm. it
successfully created on host4! so, what does really opennebula do about
choosing proper host for new VM? have I missed something or it is really a
problem with opennebula?

Thanks all

[one-users] OCCI opennebula user authentication 401 failure

[Stefano Ghio]

Cheers,

I have some questions about OCCI authentication with ONE.

I set up ONE and the OCCI server fine.

I start them with "./onestart.sh" and "occi-server start".
I have 2 users: oneadmin:oneadmin and test:test. The second one was
created with "oneuser create test test".

The OCCI server is configured in /etc/one/occi-server.conf with:

  * :auth: basic
  * :server: localhost
  * :port: 4567

The machine is reachable at IP 192.168.23.44

If I send a cURL:

curl http://test:test@192.168.23.44:4567/-/

I always get a 401 Authentication Failure. Using oneadmin:oneadmin does
not change anything.

I can easily access ONE configuration through the Sunstone interface
with oneadmin:oneadmin though it does not use OCCI so I don't think it's
related to my problem.

I tried with curl --basic --user test:test http://etc.. and curl -X GET
etc.. but no luck.

It only works if I send the request with test:sha1(test) which implies I 
must sha1 the password before sending the request


  * How do I send a proper request to the OCCI server with cURL?
  * As last resort, how can I disable authentication? Documentation [1]
only says either "basic" or "x509". I tried "none" and "false" but
it didn't work, I got a 500 Internal server error since ":auth:" was
not specified properly

I'm just using cURL to test if it's working properly, as I will later
try to do the same from a Java client. Which leads me to the next
question: where do I find a Java client which supports user
authentication? I tried occi4java[2] which looks pretty complete but
nowhere I found the possibility to pass the "user:pass" parameter.

Thank you,

have a nice day

 Hi,

 I assume you are using the 3.1 development version.
 This is a new security feature to prevent users from registering any file
 readable by oneadmin.

 /var/lib/one is by default a restricted directory, you can configure the
 behaviour in /var/lib/one/remotes/image/fs/fsrc, check the Image Repository
 documentation for more info [1].

 You can also check the new features and main changes in the compatibility
 guide [2]

Re: [one-users] does oned check which is the proper host for new VM?

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi

Yes OpenNebula check the capacity of the host and the VM. Maybe there
is a misconfiguration in your host or monitoring system. Could you
send the output of onevm show  and onehost show of the relevant VMs
and host?

Also, OpenNebula can use several heuristics for VM placement. Take a
look at the following page to find out how to configure it:

http://www.opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.0:schg

Cheers

[one-users] x509 Auth Failing after 24 hours

[Anthony Tiradani]

Hi,

I am trying to setup OpenNebula with x509 authentication.  I am using
sqlite as the DB back end for now.  I am following the documentation
here: http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.0:x509_auth

I've configured everything correctly as far as I can tell.  I can
successfully use x509 to login, but after 24 hours (no matter what I set
the expire time to with the --time argument) I get error messages saying
that the user couldn't be authenticated. 

I've tried re-running the "oneuser login ..." command to no avail.  The
only thing that works is if I delete one.db and restart OpenNebula. 
Then I can log in just fine, but all the configuration that I have done
is lost.  What do I have to do to fix this?

Thanks,

Not at all, please allow me to rectify what is a private cloud.

A private cloud is a set of infrastructure (machines) that are dedicated to a 
single entity/  company/ client. The host machines, storage, etc. are not 
shared. For example you may need a private cloud for privacy or reasons, to 
meet security standards, or for storing sensitive information. If you're 
building a cloud internally that will serve exclusively for your company needs, 
you're building a private cloud (wether it's publicly accessible/ connected to 
the Internet or not).

If you're a service provider and want to offer Private clouds to your clients, 
you can use OpenNebula VDC to isolate resources and build private clouds 
(although in that scenario, OpenNebula itself would be shared, and a security 
breach in OpenNebula could potentially expose your private clouds) :  
http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel3.0:vdcmngt

The NIST has published an interesting document that tries to highlight and 
demystify what cloud computing is:

I'm currently facing a similar issue when attempting to instantiate a VM
using occi-compute. The error:

Hi,

Could you send the messages in oned.log file? You should see there
messages from the driver describing the error...

Cheers

[one-users] Removing old VMs

[richard -rw- weinberger]

Hi!

It looks like OpenNebula keeps all used VM Ids.
Using "onevm ID" I can see all old VMs in state "DONE".
And in /var/lib/one/ exists for each old VM a directory.

How can I get rid of this?
Especially the directories in /var/lib/one/ are nasty.

Re: [one-users] Removing old VMs

[Hutson Betts]

Dear Richard,

This is not necessarily an answer to your question, but if you'll
consider taking a look at Feature #1026 that I created on the dev site.

I can understand that all reference material associated with a VM would
remain even when the VM is in the "DONE" state since technically that is
an acceptable state for the VM to exist. There could exist a scenario
where the user would like access to deployment files, logs, etc.

However, it would be nice if there was a method to clear-out all data
related to VMs. That's where Feature #1026 comes in. Currently, even
deleting a VM leaves all its files laying around.

Two ways--
Either don't use the "SAVE" option in your template

or

use VM's from the image repository and then opennebula
will save them back to the image repository instead of the
/var/lib/one/directory.

Re: [one-users] x509 Auth Failing after 24 hours

[Anthony Tiradani]

I should also mention that this is an OpenNebula 3.1 installation (via 
the rpm) on Scientific Linux 6.1.  I have the DEBUG setting set to 3 
which according to the comments in oned.conf should be the most verbose.


In trying to debug, I used the authenticate script in 
/var/lib/one/remotes/auth/x509 which imports and uses 
/usr/lib/one/ruby/x509_auth.rb.  If I take the token that is decrypted 
from the file /var/lib/one/.one/one_x509 I can perform openssl 
operations on it and verify it.  If I run the values through the 
authenticate script, I find that there is a problem parsing the CA 
chain.  When it calculates the hash value for the CA, it is dropping a 
leading 0 which makes the file path invalid.  Could this be the problem?

I've configured everything correctly as far as I can tell.  I can

I've tried re-running the "oneuser login ..." command to no avail.  The

Then I can log in just fine, but all the configuration that I have done
