I have a problem in configuring eucalyptus cloud on the existing rocks cluser configured with 4 server.

From the Frond-end server im able to run virsh list :

[root@rocks ~]# virsh list
Id Name State
———————————-
0 Domain-0 running

But when i run on the compute nodes i get the following error:

[root@compute-0-0 ~]# virsh list
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

But thru virt-manager im able to connect to the front-end..

Eucalyptus needs virsh list to show the null domain on the compute nodes to start eucalytus on compute nodes.

Can you please help me in resolving this..

The setup of the machines is as follows:
Server :
HD Size:- 60 GB
Ram Size:- 1500 MB
Clients:
HD Size :- 30 GB
Ram Size:- 512 MB

With the DVD I am able to install Frontend on Server by firing the command:-
build appliance=vm-server

Front node is working fine, with all the rolls properly installed.

Now, to install the vmcontainer I fire the command

insert-ethers” and selected vm-container

The client machine are able to network boot and get the image from the server.
All the client machine is installed using the PXE network boot and started successfully.

Up till now:-

I have one server which has got the front end installed on it.
2 Client machines installed using PXE boot.
Server Ip:-
Cluster.local (name)
10.1.1.1/16
192.168.0.40/16
Client ip:
Client 1:-
hosted-vm-0-0
10.1.255.254/16
Client 2:-
hosted-vm-0-1
10.1.255.253/16
Now, these physical machine has to be included in the frontend.
I fire this command:-

rocks add cluster fqdn = “cluster.local” ip=”10.1.1.1″ num-computes = “2″

I got the output

created frontend VM named:frontend-0-0-0
created compute VM named:hosted-vm-0-0-0
created compute VM named:hosted-vm-0-1-0

After this successfull creation of the frontend-0-0-0 I fire this command:-

rocks start host vm cluster.local

It is fired without any error message.

than finally I fire :-

virt-manager

The virtual console comes, I connect to the localhost:-

HERE COMES THE PROBLEM :-
I can only see Domain-0, there is no frontend-0-0-0 virtual machine foamed under Domain-0,( as shown in manual)

I have been trying to resolve how to get this frontend-0-0-0, but not able to figure out.

Please let me know where I am getting wrong.In case if I am wrong somewhere please guide me.

I have read on some of discussion thread that there were able to install Rocks cluster on VMWARE, but none of them
give any thing regarding this problem.

Let me know if any other information is required.

With regards
Deependu

Good luck :)
