Cloud.com's CloudStack agent + RightScale's RightImage + README
System requirements
- One or more computer hosts capable of running the software. See Linux Hardware Compatibility List.
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on each machine. Available at Ubuntu Releases.
Adding a New Host
To add a new host, install the CloudStack agent software on it.
- Click the Download button to get the CloudKit installation bundle.
- Log in as root to the host machine where you want to install the software. The machine must have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed.
- Place the CloudKit installation bundle on the host and untar.
# tar xzf <Installer file name>.tar.gz
- Run the installer.
# cd <Directory of extracted installer># sudo ./install.sh
- At the prompt, type A to install the agent. Installation can take a few minutes. When installation is finished, a message like "Agent installation is completed" appears.
- After the agent installation finishes, run the setup script.
- For Management Server address, use the default if it is not localhost, or input the IP address provided to you by Cloud.com. Currently the only Management Server IP being provided is 192.168.130.223.
- When prompted, paste in the zone token for your cloud. You can find it at the top of this page. The zone token is a unique code that identifies your cloud. You will need it throughout the lifetime of your cloud.
- Provide the name of the network interface you want to use, or (typically) accept the default.
- When the "Installation complete!" message appears, confirm that the new host appears in the Hosts tab of the CloudKit administration UI.
You can also run this command on the host to be sure the cloud-agent software is running:
# sudo service cloud-agent status
- Click Complete Registration. The new host is automatically registered with RightScale as part of your CloudKit cloud.
# sudo mycloud-setup-agent
You're ready to start using your new host!
