Hi all,
I have a few questions about CloudStack deployment.
1. I am trying to deploy CloudStack, use CloudStack to start a
cluster and run hadoop on it. Now I have only one computer with
virtulization extension support in hardware and the OS is ubuntu
12.04.
I'm no hadoop person but if you require large swaths of storage you
are going to use I imagine that will be external to your development
environment. Is this true?
Testing the well functionality of hadoop might need large storage as
hadoop is designed for big data:)
But at this moment I am not quite sure what exactly need to be tailored
for hadoop case. I will come back
to this as soon as I figured it out.
what would be a good deployment suit?
Devcloud? It seems like the tiny linux guest VM in devcloud won't be
sufficient to play with hadoop.
You can register a VM of your choice in devcloud from the UI. If
devcloud is unsuitable, tell us what is missing and we can see if it
can be tailored to fit your use case.
Install Xenserver on my desktop, using one VM as the management
server and other VMs as guest VMs.
Install management server on my ubuntu desktop. Using KVM to
provision guest VMs. This is the guide I found for this solution:
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.2/html/Quick_Install_Guide/index.html
Or anything else?
You can run all the management server code from your laptop as a
development environment and add an external hypervisor host (Either
Xen/KVM) to it. The guests, system VMs etc will then be deployed on
your host and not eat up any memory on your laptop. Management server
does require quite a bit of memory to run and having Hypervisor +
Management server + storage + kitchen sink will slow it down (unless
you just need devcloud).
I will add another hypervisor host. Is there any network requirement
for the management server and hypervisor host?
May I know how does the management server know the hypervisor host and
include it to its management?
2. When I try to deploy management server on my desktop. I
encountered below error when running the command "mvn -P developer
-pl developer,tools/devcloud -Ddeploydb" in this tutorial:
https://cwiki.apache.org/CLOUDSTACK/devcloud.html
Did mvn -Pdeveloper -Dsystevm clean install succeed for you?
Yes, this step works for me.

Does your mysql instance have a root password? If so you'll have to
put that into db.properties.override file under utils/conf.
I see the wiki(s) are missing this info, so we'll need to edit that
with this step if it works for you.
I create a file named db.properties.override under utils/conf. Put my
root password inside it and it works!
let us know.
I am running the mvn command as root. Mysql is setup locally.
The command "mvn -pl :cloud-client-ui jetty:run" gives me a
error:[INFO] Couldn't find specified project dir:
/home/meng/cloudstack/:cloud-client-ui
I notice that there is no cloud-client-ui directory under cloudstack.
So I switched to "mvn -pl client jetty:run", however it told me the
maven-jetty-plugin does not exist.
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'jetty'.

Any light on this?
Thanks!
