HI Simon, No, I didn't try to use CloudMonkey yet, just trying to see how the user data is getting used. I did see the document you sent me already and does look like straight forward think. Could I ask you to give an example of how you using user-data, and how do you prepare it for the CloudMon

I would be willing to work with someone who really knows the networking to fix the docs. I have made specific suggestions about what I think needs to be changed but it does require input from someone who actually understands Cloudstack networking to properly fix the docs. It would also be he

David, I can't speak to the GUI userdata, as I've never used it from the GUI. Have you tried using CloudMonkey? Here's some info related to userdata: http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/cloudstack-administration/en/latest/virtual_machines.html#user-data-and-meta-data - Si

Re: Management server + MySQL server requirements

Josh, Unless you plan to create a massive cloud, there is probably no reason to separate MySQL from the management server. It would actually be better to deploy two management servers and then replicate MySQL over to the second server for some form of HA. You don't really need SSDs. A couple o

I do agree that the docs are confusing, especially if you have a limited knowledge of networking concepts. In terms of the complexity, a lot of that has to do with the fact that every company has different service requirements and ACS needs to be flexible enough to accommodate very different un

Management server + MySQL server requirements

2016-02-27 Thread Josh Davis
Hi all, apologies for the spam. This is the hardware suggestion for MySQL on the management server node. I'm looking at a separate server for MySQL DB. Is the bulk of the 250GB requirement used by the management server or the MySQL DB? Do I need to use SSDs or is SAS or even SATA fine for the m

I am also stuck trying to sort out networking so Josh has my sympathies. The networking docs are really confusing. They wander from general to specific. They mix the general architecture with specific hardware discussions without any context for the switch or any explanation of why the hardware

Hello Josh, Networking is the single biggest cause of headaches with Cloudstack, once you get it right the rest is easier. I recommend to read http://www.shapeblue.com/understanding-cloudstacks-physical-networking-architecture/ >From what you described, it looks like what you need is either a B
