[00:01] <flaccid> :)
[00:04] <dialtone> at this point I just want to disable it and redirect stdout and stderr to a file
[00:04] <dialtone> without having to repackage the instance
[09:31] <progre55> hi guys. I'm trying to run an instance, but can not connect to it. the console output shows "waiting for metadata service at http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/instance-id  08:19:06 [ 1/100]: url error [timed out]"
[09:31] <progre55> Any suggestions, please?
[10:36] <progre55> hmm.. for some reason, all the instances I'm running have the same public-IP, although all of them are "running" at the same time, and the private IP changes to a valid-IP after a while with a message on nc.log saying "discovered private IP xx.xx.xx.xx for instance i-408F076D"
[10:40] <progre55> oh and cloud-error.log says "ERROR Found 2 vms with the same address: com.eucalyptus.net.util.ClusterAddressInfo@e30c8f0c ->  i-408F076D i-48A408AD"
[10:42]  * progre55 is starting to dislike eucalyptus and thining to go back to amazon AWS )
[14:09] <progre55> smoser: hi
[14:09] <progre55> here?
[14:10] <smoser> hi
[14:11] <smoser> progre55, i'm not sure why you would get multiple public ips to ssame instance.
[14:11] <progre55> sorry for disturbing, it's just, afaik you're the only one active in this channal =)
[14:11] <smoser> obviously thats not good
[14:11] <smoser> we've seen the metadata service broken-ness from time to time (there are bugs opened).
[14:11] <progre55> smoser: well, I've already reinstalled all the machines )
[14:11] <smoser> well, most people here have "real work" to be doing (myself included)
[14:11] <progre55> yeah I understand =)
[14:11] <smoser> the one other place to go for support on eucalyptus is the eucalyptus forums
[14:11] <progre55> just wanted to ask..
[14:12] <smoser> oh yeah
[14:12] <smoser> no harm
[14:12] <smoser> what does euca-describe-addresses say (as admin) . can you pastebin that ?
[14:12] <smoser> while you have a couple instances running
[14:12] <smoser> and also
[14:12] <progre55> I've set up a machine as cc+nc+storage+walrus and another machine as nc
[14:12] <smoser> euca_conf --list-nodes
[14:12] <progre55> yeah, about that, list-nodes
[14:12] <progre55> so I have 2 machines, meaning 2 nodes
[14:13] <progre55> but list-nodes shows me 3
[14:13] <progre55> 2 of them being the main machine  + the separate node
[14:13] <progre55> but the main machine nodes have 2 different IP addresses, one valid and one invalid
[14:13] <progre55> is that okay?
[14:14] <smoser> hm.
[14:14] <progre55> and although I have 8 cpu cores all together, euca-describe-availability-zones says I can run 10 instances with 1 cpu each..
[14:14] <smoser> i would ditch nc on the cc+storage+walrus machine
[14:14] <smoser> that is not something so often tested.
[14:14] <progre55> oh, I have 6 cpu cores, 4 from the cc and 2 from the nc machine
[14:15] <smoser> most common test scenario was cc+storage+walrus and ncs
[14:15] <progre55> hmm.. I see
[14:15] <progre55> what if I have a 32bit 1 core machine for cc?
[14:16] <progre55> and 64bit quadro machines for NCs
[14:16] <progre55> would it work?
[14:16] <progre55> it's just, I have only 2 powerful machines, and plus a bunch of crappy machines.. =)
[14:16] <progre55> and I wanted to use the powerful machines as NCs
[14:47] <smoser> yeah, i would want ot use powerfull for NC alos
[14:47] <smoser> so i might try cc+storage+walrus on "crappy"
[15:01] <progre55> smoser: thanks. but can cc be a 32 bit machine with no KVM?
[15:01] <smoser> yes
[15:02] <progre55> oh, awesome =)
[15:02] <progre55> smoser: thanks
[18:48] <hallyn> smoser: say, to run ec2-describe-images on stock lucid server, should that work with just ec2-ami-tools, ec2-api-tools, and sun-java6-jre installed?  bc i'm getting not-found java classes, but woudl prefer not to install the .zips from amazon.com
[18:50] <smoser> hallyn, yes. you should just be able to apt-get install ec2-api-tools from multiverse

[18:51] <smoser> it does work..
[18:51] <smoser> what errors are you getting ?
[18:53] <hallyn> smoser: http://pastebin.com/4VsiWEtr
[18:54] <smoser> gnu.gcj.runtime.SystemClassLoader
[18:54] <smoser> java is gcj
[18:55] <hallyn> i wonder where that is specified
[18:55] <hallyn> bc i dont' have gcj
[18:55] <smoser> update-alternatives --query java
[18:56] <hallyn> Best: /usr/bin/gij-4.4
[18:58] <hallyn> smoser: thx, i'm in business.
