Our documented procedure for updating console proxy SSL is: 1. Load cert through CloudStack UI, wait for Console Proxy VMs to restart 2. If this is the first installation of SSL certificate, ensure Settings consoleproxy.sslEnabled and consoleproxy.url.domain are set correctly 3.

Re: Cloudstack guest password

2020-07-28 Thread Richard Lawley
Do you have a redundant network (2 VRs)? If so, you cannot communicate with the password server on the shared .1 IP - you need to use the VR's unique IP address (this is why the scripts are trying to find the DHCP server address - this is the only way to find this IP). Also note that there's a

Re: CloudStack - Ubuntu/KVM (all in one management-server/host) - OS Upgrade w/o updating System VMs

2020-05-18 Thread Richard Lawley
The database upgrade does not happen unless the systemVM templates have been added, so nothing non-reversible has happened yet. You can just use yum to downgrade to 4.11.2 and you'll be fine (we've also accidentally done this at some point!). I'd recommend disabling your cloudstack yum repo so

You may find it easier to modify the template build script rather than perform manual changes to an existing template. We use this approach to building our own system VMs and it's worked well. Building the templates isn't tricky - look in tools/appliance in the source. If you want to run

If your console windows are still opening but not in SSL, then I would first try restarting the management server (I believe this is required after you change the consoleproxy.sslEnabled settings). Restart the consoleproxy after. If that doesn't work, destroy the consoleproxy and it will get

The error message suggests that the database hasn't been updated, so you should be able to reinstall 4.11.2 and have it start working again. Then you can add the system VM image before retrying the upgrade. Regards, Richard On Sun, 16 Feb 2020, 16:08 Pratik Chandrakar, wrote: > Hello, > We

What did you do leading up to this problem? Is this a new install/upgrade? If upgrade, from what to what? I presume 192.168.30.2 is your mgmt server - what are 192.168.30.53/.58? You can temporarily disable strictness which is akin to disabling SSL validation by changing the setting

Andrija, A simpler solution to this is to force ACS to set the host up again. To do this: Remove the tag which indicates the host has been set up: xe host-param-remove uuid=HOSTUUID param-name=tags param-key= vmops-version-com.cloud.hypervisor.xenserver.resource.XenServer650R Then simply
