OpenStack based cloud platform for the HTWG Laboraties.

Branching/Issues/Folders

• Put devstack related files to "devstack" and virtual machine instance related files to "instance"
• Branch per feature
• Merge if feature works flawless to master
• GitHub Issues to manage Features, Bugs, etc.

Deployment on Ubuntu 14.04

Requirements

See Vagrantfile for network config.

Running

Run deploy.sh in this folder as normal user in your Ubuntu 14.04 machine (which will be the HTWG Lab Cloud Host).

Deployment with VirtualBox

Requirements

• Vagrant
• VirtualBox

Running

Configuration:

• Vagrantfile adjust eth2 IP, so that it is an IP in your local real network.
• devstack/local.conf adjust FLOATING_RANGE, subnet of eth2 (mostly it is sufficient to change the ip to the ip of eth2)
• devstack/local.conf adjust LAB_CLOUD_PUBLIC_IP (should match eth2 of Vagrantfile)
• devstack/util/instance.py set ips to eth1 ip from Vagrantfile
• devstack/dashboard-panel-extension/prof/courses/client.py set ips to eth1 ip from Vagrantfile
• devstack/set_admin_data.sh insert admin passwords (separate textfile uploaded in moodle)

Running:

• Run vagrant up in this folder to bring the machine up
• vagrant ssh to ssh in machine
• vagrant destroy to clean up everything and delete all traces

Without Vagrant

Manually configure VirtualBox VM:

• eth0: NAT
• eth1: Host-Only, no DHCP, static ip: 192.168.35.129
• eth2: Bridged, ip: 192.168.1.111

IP of eth2 can be changed, then you have to change it as well in devstack/local.conf.

Look out for LAB_CLOUD_PUBLIC_IP and FLOATING_RANGE. They should match your local network.

For example: If you have the IP 192.168.0.20, then your router probably is in 192.168.0.1/24 subnet. Then configure the LAB_CLOUD_PUBLIC_IP=192.168.0.111 and FLOATING_RANGE=192.168.0.128/25.
