Re: [OpenNode-users] How to update to the latest version with Web GUI?

[<ope...@li...>]

If you installed from ISO did you configure network interface as DHCP in installer?
It should do DHCP request on vmbr0 then. Please note that on OpenNode eth0 should be without address (eth0 should be up but not configured) - we use vmbr0 instead (eth0 is a member to that bridge).

OpenNode Management Server (OMS) and its web console will be packaged as a separate OpenVZ VM - its public release is still some weeks away.
OpenNode 1.1 beta1 containes updated opennode cli utility for local management tasks and is a requirement for OMS use after OMS will be released.

Re: [OpenNode-users] How to update to the latest version with Web GUI?

[<ope...@li...>]

When doing yum upgrade opennode cli utility might be removed from PATH environment variable - we will fix this in next 1.1 beta.
You can still run opennode CLi utility by executing on console:
/opt/opennode/bin/opennode

Re: [OpenNode-users] How to update to the latest version with Web GUI?

[<ope...@li...>]

Thanks for the quick and detailed response. So, the beta version 1.1 is not
the one with Web UI then I am assuming.

I got into the regular console using FUNC. I did the beta upgrade and
restarted the machine. Now, the prompt for login reads virtN and
the management utility is gone. I guess I should go back to the stable
version.

I am really looking forward to the Web UI as without it, it's the graphs and
stats are very useful.

Bruce

Re: [OpenNode-users] How to update to the latest version with Web GUI?

[<ope...@li...>]

Hello,

I hope the following answers your questions.


If you choose Exit in the OpenNode Management Utility you are returned to the regular terminal where you can do all the common linux management. 

The console that opens under the Management button is the virsh management console for managing virtual machines over the libvirt API. The coming OpenNode 1.1 version supports virsh console shortcut buttons for both OpenVZ and KVM.

Web UI will be hopefully released in the coming weeks when last tweaks are carried out. Then you will have and option in the OpenNode Management Utility to download, install and configure the Web UI. And also we will provide all the necessary guidelines on our dedicated OpenNode webpage.


Best regards,
Danel

[OpenNode-users] How to update to the latest version with Web GUI?

[<ope...@li...>]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to the list and running away from Proxmox due to it's really messy
structure. I have seem some screen shots of OpenNode and I am liking it
already. I hope it does work for me. I am mostly looking to install
Asterisk/CentOS on containers.

I have installed the 1.0 stable version from the .iso and I see that it has
not picked up an IP from my DHCP router. I do have access to the system but
the utility window comes up right away and when I go into Management console
it seems like a limited console which doesn't even have "ifconfig".

1- How can I make sure both NIC ports are up and getting IPs? - I saw them
starting successfully during boot process.
2- How can I get to the Web UI to launch instances? or is that in the beta
version? If so, I am interested to upgrade. What is the procedure? Since, I
don't TRUE access to the root I can't even use the Yum repository.

Thanks

[OpenNode-users] OpenNode 1.1 beta1 available for testing from opennode-test repository

[<ope...@li...>]

We have released first beta version of opennode 1.1 package for brave and adventurous betatesters :-) It is based on OpenNode 1.0 stable kernel and KVM stack - but contains upgraded opennode CLI utility which brings some new goodies.
For installing opennnode 1.1 beta 1 rpm package please do the following:

switch to opennode-test yum repository (enable opennode-test repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/opennode file and disable opennode repo)
do yum upgrade opennode (which should pull opennode-1.1 rpm from opennode-test repo)
Most notably OpenNode 1.1 brings the following goodies:

Automated OpenVZ VM configuration file generation if deploying VM from OpenNode OVF template - CLI VM installer asks from user how much CPU, MEM, DISK is needed for VM and generates the rest.
OVF template file support for both OpenVZ and KVM templates - now its possible to create a OVF compatible VM templates from OpenVZ and KVM VM-s and to set minimum VM resource requirements within OVF template metainfo.
Checksum validated template downloads from OpenNode official template store and local template management.
Custom Func modules needed by OpenNode Management Server to activate central management features later on.
OpenNode 1.1 CLI utility OpenVZ VM procedures should be fairly stable and usable but KVM VM-s OVF templating features need probably some more testing. Please give us feedback and do commit bugreports if encoutering any problems.

Greetings Dave,


As we are on the topic of web management interface, have you got any  
particular suggestions which features would you personally expect from  
the interface? As our main aim is to simplify the server management

[<ope...@li...>]

Web interface and management server release is nearing - there are still couple of features to add, some polishing work on existing stuff and then most of work will go into release packaging/installer - release date estimate is somewhere around 3-4 weeks from now.

Re: [OpenNode-users] Web interface

Yes - beta testers are welcome. I will let you know as soon as we get management server packaged and installation procedure documented - it may still take around coupple of weeks - we'll try our best.
Please also notice that OpenNode is already running headless - it has no GUI (besides GUI installer) - management is done locally over ssh console or through local console. For KVM there is also virt-manager GUI supported - you can run it over ssh remotely with X forwarding enabled (look at exaples on website).

Im just guessing that when the OpenNode HN vmbr0 is bridged to KVM VM eth0 - then only VM itself must have correct routing setup - as we do not route traffic between vmbr0 and VM?

Re: [OpenNode-users] Network setup KVM+Windows Guest

[<ope...@li...>]

The problem is that the server has a main IP address  88.1.1.1 for
example, and the IP address pool for the guests are not in the same
subnet. They are routed by my provider through 88.1.1.1.   I could
imagine they have something like this in their router: route add -host
55.1.2.3 gw 88.1.1.1   (with 55.1.2.3 being the IP to assign to the
guest).

The provider is OVH (if that helps anyone seeing this)... and those IP
addresses can be routed to any of the dedicated servers you own, by
using their web interface... So if a server fails, you just route the
IP to the other server, and everything keeps working.

I currently have 3 Openvz Guests... and the setup looks like this:

On the HN:
# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
188.x.y.226 0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 venet0
188.x.y.227 0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 venet0
188.x.y.225 0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 venet0

What I want is to replicate (as much as possible) this setup for the
Windows Guests

Re: [OpenNode-users] Network setup KVM+Windows Guest

[<ope...@li...>]

By default on OpenNode we use bridged network to KVM VM - seems that if 
you are doing NAT with iptables on HN then you use routed network with KVM?

Re: [OpenNode-users] Network setup KVM+Windows Guest

[<ope...@li...>]

Thanks for the reply.

Ok... I have done this in the past:

1) Setup a network (192.168.99.1 on the HN, 192.168.99.2 in the
Guest). They can ping each other.
2) Setup iptables to do forward packets on the HN to the Guest
3) Setup iptables to do NAT on packets going out with a src address of
192.168.99.2

That works, but I don't like that setup very much, because the windows
Guest doesn't have notion of its public IP address.

Note that I'm talking about Windows Guests...

Re: [OpenNode-users] Network setup KVM+Windows Guest

[<ope...@li...>]

I think you must add proper routes inside KVM VM and/or also to vmbr0 
for these subnets.

venet interfaces work magically because they are point-to-point and 
required routes get added automatically - as seen with: route -n

To add additional routes to vmbr0 interface do something like that 
(192.168.55.0 being desired subnet and 192.168.55.1 as gateway to this 
subnet) :

route add -net 192.168.55.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.55.1 vmbr0 (vmbr0 on HN or eth0 inside VM)

Let me know if that helps.

[OpenNode-users] Network setup KVM+Windows Guest

[<ope...@li...>]

Hello,

I have a server with 1 public IP address, and 8 more IP addresses
routed through it. These are individual IPs, they aren't in the same
block.

OpenVZ guests work very well in this setup... the HN just forwards
packets directed to their IP to the corresponding VNET interface, and
everything works very well.

How can I replicate this setup with Windows Guests under KVM? Can
anyone point me to a tutorial or howto on how to setup both the HN and
the Windows Guest networking?

Thanks in advance,
    Julián J. M.

Re: [OpenNode-users] issue about installing Open node

[<ope...@li...>]

If CentOS does not support your video card at all - then yes - only 
solution would be installing pure CentOS in text mode (which we dont 
support in OpenNode installer yet).
Have you tried known CentOS installer boot options with OpenNode CD to 
set resolution to some basic default (like 800x600 or 640x480) etc? 
Often installer sets video card resolution automatically too high for 
attached monitor - therefor black screen will happen.

Anyway there is also possibility to install OpenNode on existing CentOS 
installation - but you must ensure that some basic requirements are met 
- I'll try to describe what should be needed:

1) there must be /storage and /vz  folders (on OpenNode they are 
separate LVM LV-s)
2) you must disable kernel libvirt and kvm updates from all other repos 
except opennode repo

nano -w /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
--- ADD to BASE and UPDATES and ADDONS and EXTRAS and CENTOSPLUS and CONTRIB ---
priority=1
exclude=kernel libvirt* kvm* kmod-kvm*
--- ADD to BASE and UPDATES and ADDONS and EXTRAS and CENTOSPLUS and CONTRIB ---

3) install opennode repo file

nano -w /etc/yum.repos.d/opennode
--- PASTE ---
[opennode]
name=CentOS-$releasever - activesys opennode packages for $basearch
baseurl=http://opennode.activesys.org/CentOS/$releasever/opennode
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
protect=1
priority=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-ActiveSys

[opennode-test]
name=CentOS-$releasever - activesys opennode packages for $basearch
baseurl=http://opennode.activesys.org/CentOS/$releasever/opennode-test
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
protect=1
priority=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-ActiveSys
--- PASTE ---

4) Do yum update - this should pull ovzkernel, kvm, libvirt and opennode 
packages from opennode repo

5) check /etc/sysctl.conf for entries that are needed for VZ - add if 
these lines are not there:

nano -w /etc/sysctl.conf
--- MODIFY ---
# On Hardware Node we generally need
# packet forwarding enabled and proxy arp disabled
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
 
# Enables the magic-sysrq key
kernel.sysrq = 1
--- MODIFY ---
 
--- ADD ---
# OpenVZ
net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects = 1
# this is enabled for veth bridge setup
net.ipv4.conf.default.proxy_arp = 1
--- ADD ---

6) Disable SELinux and disable firewall alltogether - or DNS inside VZ containers will not work!
system-config-securitylevel-tui

7) After reboot verify that you are running ovzkernel
uname -a


Let me know how this procedure works for you - it might be that I missed 
some little details and I'll try to look these up then if any problems 
arise.

[OpenNode-users] issue about installing Open node

[<ope...@li...>]

Greetings 

I don't know which one to email so i am going to email both i hopes to find a 
solution to this issue so here it goes.

i am trying to install Open Node,  i really like what i see however, i am 
running into an issue. i am installing it on hardware that centos has issue with 
the video and there isn't an alt option to install it on this hardware platform 
as it only has the "boot" option.  is there a way to not have the default 
drivers loaded or perhaps some step by step instructions to install Open Node on 
an existing Centos machine?

Thank you for your time and assistance 

Sincerely

GGD

[OpenNode-users] OpenNode web-based Management Console screenshots

[<ope...@li...>]

Here are some preliminary OpenNode web-based Management Console screenshots showing off current FuncMan development state: http://opennode.activesys.org/about/wui-screenshots/
FuncMan interface design details are probably going to change a bit in the future - we have been busy to implement console features and have not devoted much time to design details yet.

Whats implemented so far:
* user authentication through OpenNode Management Server PAM service
* SSL encrypted application session and communication layer between Management Server
* encrypted HTML5 VNC and SSH consoles (no java or flash required) together with SSH secured access to VM VNC displays on OpenNode hosts (automated tunneling)
* listing OpenNode cluster nodes and VMs
* OpenNode and VM stats/gauges (agentless VM info only at the moment)
* importing/removing registered OpenNode cluster nodes

Stuff that needs some more work:
* KVM VM create and edit forms
* OVZ edit form
* KVM and OVZ template download and management
* KVM storage management
* ISO images management
* SSL certificates generator and root-cert setup helper for different web-browsers

If all goes well we are hoping to have an alpha release packages ready by the end of september or so.
Meanwhile we would very much like to get feedback about your OpenNode experience.
 
Best regards,
