CloudStack 4.2 package with CentOS 5.4

[Rayees Namathponnan]

Hi All,

Is anyone packaged CloudStack 4.2 package with  CentOS 5.4 ? I am getting below 
error while packaging with Centos 5.4


[root@rhel5 centos63]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.4 (Final)
[root@rhel5 centos63]# pwd
/root /build/workspace/CloudStack_RHEL_5/cloudstack/packaging/centos63
[root@rhel5 centos63]# ./package.sh
4.2.0-SNAPSHOT
error: Group field must be present in package: cloudstack-usage
[root@rhel5 centos63]#

Is existing  packaging/centos63/ package.sh support only in centos 6.3 ?

Regards,
Rayees

Try building again , I just pushed a fix in to 4.2 and master for
this. Surprised we are just now running into this though.

Thanks David,

Issue fixed with cloudstack-usage, we need to apply same fix with  
cloudstack-cli and cloudstacl-awsapi.


Also packaging scripts looking for cloudstack-4.2.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz in wrong 
location

[root@rhel5 centos63]# ./package.sh 
4.2.0-SNAPSHOT
error: File /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/cloudstack-4.2.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz: No such file 
or directory

It should support to look for cloudstack-4.2.0-SNAPSHOT.tgz at " 
/root/jenkins/build/workspace/CloudStack_RHEL_5/cloudstack/dist/rpmbuild/SOURCES
 "


Regards,
Rayees

Not sure why it isn't honoring the RPMDIR environment variable. EL5
might have called that something different, as EL5 rpmbuild is pretty
old. Might be better to see if we can make this happen with mock so
you can do it all on EL6 or even Fedora. I may look at that in the
next few weeks.

Re: Swift in 4.2 is broken, anybody wants it to be supported in 4.2?

[Andrew Bayer]

Not sure about the upload status - Swift itself may not have anything like
that. It looks like files >5gb require some jumping through hoops with
swift in general -
http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-object-storage/1.0/content/large-object-creation.html.
And jclouds' blobstore approach supports payloads directly from
inputstreams, if that's what you mean.

Re: Invoking an API from an API plugin

[Chiradeep Vittal]

APIs should call the service interface directly and not call other APIs.

Re: Shared networks without IP range.

[Chiradeep Vittal]

I can think of a use case where the user wants static Ips, but with
range/overlap/reuse checks.

Secondary Storage Setup Question

[Mike Tutkowski]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up CloudStack with a VMware-only configuration. In the
past, I've always used DevCloud2, which has worked nicely when I had Xen in
the mix.

One of the steps I need to do, of course, is to configure secondary storage.

I have two NFS shares:

/export/primary
/export/secondary

My management server is running in Eclipse on a different computer than the
one the NFS shares are on.

I've gotten to the point where I'm supposed to seed secondary storage with
a system VM template (
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.0-incubating/html/Installation_Guide/management-server-install-flow.html).
It makes reference to a script I'm supposed to run. The problem is - since
I didn't install the CS MS on this computer (it's on a different computer)
- I never downloaded any scripts.

It might be elsewhere in the directions, but can someone point me to what I
need to have downloaded (and from where) on my computer hosting these NFS
shares so I can run the necessary script?

Thanks!
