Hi, my attempt is to install cloudstack management server on a non-Linux OS (an UNIX-like one). Of course not for production setup in this case... :-)
But... I'm not sure I fully understand some basic concepts. Are most of the scripts in /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts used only when cloudstack mgmt server is also acting as hypervisor? I see there's a lot of Linux specific commands inside scripts (brctl, iptables...). I also could not find info what is a process of creating new VM (when using Linux KVM hypervisor, remote host). Does mgmt server need permanent access to storage (NFS), and is mgmt server creating new VM image with qemu-img inside this storage or does delegate this task to a remote host? Hence... the main confusion is how much is management server involved in the show. If it is just giving orders (when using remote hypervisor), like in RHEVM/oVirt case, and thus the tasks are done by cloudstack agent (in KVM hypervisor case)... Thank you very much for clarification. jirib
