I think my mail did not get through, I can't find it in the archives; I've
probably sent it too fast after subscribing

I've started out with cloudstack a couple days ago and I've hit a bit of a
brick wall.

The installation is running on a system that has two network interfaces, a
public one and private one (connecting to a local network).

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
        address 10.158.231.29
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 10.158.231.0
        broadcast 10.158.231.255
        gateway 10.158.231.1

auto cloudbr0
iface cloudbr0 inet static
    address 172.16.8.7
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 172.16.8.0
    broadcast 172.16.8.255
    up route add -net 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 172.16.8.1
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_fd 5
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_maxwait 1

The idea is to connect all the guests to the 172.16 network because access
to multicasting devices is needed.

The systems are running on Debian wheezy, and got the system up after
fixing the /etc/legal problem (echo Ubuntu) and after finding out in the
logs that there is a package dependency problem on the cloudstack-manager
package for 4.3

The biggest problem seems to be that host is running in a corporate network
and cloudstack is auto configuring some things by downloading over http.
This does not work since a corporate proxy is required.

I downloaded the system images manually; but now it seems I need to do the
same in the secondary storage vm.

The vm is running and I can get the login prompt with virsh (kvm), however
there is no password I can find.

The trick with the connection to the local-link address does not work
because I fear I have a networking/firewall issue. It does not matter if I
disable the firewall or not, I cannot access the 169.254.x.x network.

pinging the device returns
ping 169.254.3.236
PING 169.254.3.236 (169.254.3.236) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From 169.254.0.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 169.254.0.1 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 169.254.0.1 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable


The firewall configuration is firehol

cat /etc/firehol/firehol.conf

version 5

I got a bit further by adding the interface cloud0 to the definition, but
still no joy.

I need to access the vm to run some script with a http_proxy environment
variable...

I am currently starting to run out of ideas; installing cloudstack was
fine; but I entered hell afterwards; ...

However, only to OTHER machines, I still cannot access the Secondary
storage VM by the ll address.

So LL addresses work to other physical machines, not to the VM on the same
host I am connecting from (or from another machine for that matter).
