Hi Gang,
Yes, I'm working on CloudStack support for Stratos. I've got some code
written and thus far I am at the point where Stratos recognizes the new
provider 'cloudstack'. I've been planning to share this code and will
do so asap.
I'm currently in the process of setting up a VM template to use as a
generic cartridge.
Once I've uploaded the code I'll advise on its location.
cheers

Thanks for the CC chris.
Ian Duffy (cc'd) has been working on an automated virtualbox
development environment setup that contains cloudstack and
xenserver [1]. This may save you some time, but it is
probably worth pinging Ian to see if the project is ready for
testing.
It will give you XenServer and the nfs/mysql box you will have to
compile/run cloudstack on your own machine.
Instructions on setting up a cloudstack dev environment:
https://github.com/runseb/cloudstack-books/blob/master/en/developer.markdown
Instructions for bringing up the xenserver and mysql + nfs box via
vagrant can be found at: https://github.com/imduffy15/GSoC-2014
(It should work for you)
Bringing up VMs inside of the "devcloud" environment can be
interesting. There is a default template supplied "ttylinux_pv"
which is a very low spec machine. Ignore the "Medium" and "Small"
service offerings they are default ones created by cloudstack on
first run, they will not work inside of devcloud as they do not
use local storage.
If you wish to install ubuntu or debian you will need to: (This is
due to nested virtualization)
1) Create a service offering with 512mb+ ram and that uses local
storage.
2) Create a disk offering that uses local storage.
3) Upload a Ubuntu Server ISO. (not netinstall iso, xenserver
doesn't recognize its structure for booting. Preferably use
something with linux kernel 3 to get the PV drivers.).
4) Modify the templates_view sql table to set the hvm flag on the
uploaded ISO to 0.
If you need any more help to get going let me know.

Hi Melan,
Jason Daly and Tuna were working on cloudstack support, I've
cc'd them.
In my experience, Cloudstack can be a bit of a nightmare to
set up. If you run into such issues, Ian Duffy (cc'd) has
been working on an automated virtualbox development
environment setup that contains cloudstack and xenserver [1].
This may save you some time, but it is probably worth pinging
Ian to see if the project is ready for testing.

Hi Devs,
Apache CloudStack is a popular open source cloud computing
platform, but Stratos is lacking CloudStack support as an
IaaS provider. So, I am going to work on CloudStack
support for Stratos.
It seems there is own CloudStack API but Cloudstack is
supported by jclouds[1] and pretty much everything the
Cloudstack API can do is implemented in jclouds. I am
still at initial steps of setting up
CloudStack on my machine and I will update this thread as
progress.
Your suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Melan
