cuyleryup01:26
cuylerdidnt see you there smoser01:27
cuylerthats where i got it from01:27
flaccida usb key is a cloud?01:28
smoseri think you can atually just type 'linux' or maybe even hit enter.01:28
smoserits a usb createor bug01:28
smoserflaccid, he's trying to install UEC (i think)01:28
cuyleryes i am01:28
flaccidoh01:28
flaccidboot error is what the installation media or booting the OS afer install?01:29
cuylerinstallation media01:29
smoserhttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9704603 is a hnt.. there is a bug, but i don't see it01:30
flaccidcould be a bug, this is suited for #ubuntu . search launchpad bugs and consider the alternate cd01:30
smoseri dont know how it was fixed, but the problem was that usb-creator uses the host OS's isolinux01:31
cuylerthx- gona give it a shot01:31
smoserand that maverick and lucid have different enough versions that there were problems creating one from the other (both ways)01:31
cuylerhaha thats a nice bug01:31
smoserhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/60838201:32
uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 608382 in usb-creator "Maverick images burned to usb key on lucid fail to boot - different syslinux version" [High,Fix released]01:32
smoserit should be fixed though, if you're up to date on lucid01:33
smoser(comment 42 there)01:33

progre55Hi guys. I had a cluster and a node functioning properly. But then the cluster and node addresses changed on the LAN (cluster: 172.16.4.30, node: 172.16.5.217) and now they dont even see each other. Any suggestions, please?12:42
Makereso with how many nodes have you tried the cloud?13:22
Makeregeneral question, not aimed for anyone :)13:22
Makerecurrently running with 38 nodes13:24
TeTeTprogre55: in general UEC won't work well in a DHCP environment, you want static IPs for all components13:31
TeTeTprogre55: or testing you probably can get away with using euca-register-* and euca-discover-nodes13:31
TeTeTMakere: only got 2 nodes :( Do you run all of the 38 in one cluster or spread them over several clusters?13:31

Makereone cluster13:51
Makeremainly because secondary cluster installation is broken13:51
Makereand all we are doing is running folding@home :p13:52
TeTeTMakere: broken on the same LAN you mean? per the problem you reported a couple of days ago?13:52
TeTeThe he13:52

Makeredoesn't list all instances as active CPU's yet for some reason13:54
MakereI guess it would be better with more clusters, now it seems that the network has slowed down to a crawl13:56
TeTeTMakere: check the cluster controller for network I/O. I bet it's strained13:59

silencieuxhello?19:11
silencieuxI am trying to set up a private cloud for a school project and my noob backside is having a heck of a time.  Can anyone help me with a error:  Failed check! Invalidating registration: image-store-1289694986/ramdisk.manifest.xml19:13
nijabasilencieux: it seems that the image checksum failed.  Indicates damage in download.  I guess you should try again19:17
silencieuxfun... reload the images then... well thanks a ton19:21
silencieuxhey have any of you been able to get a <gasp!> M$ Windows image to run in the cloud yet?19:26
silencieuxagain... pardon my n00bness19:27
MakereI think you can run them, but it's not officially supported in the free version20:23
Makerehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PATWTb0llSU <- something we made for the lulz at school project :D20:42
flaccid"the best experience of cloud computing"20:45
flaccidreally?20:45
Makerelet's not go there20:46
Makereit's there for a joke20:46
Makere:D20:46
flaccidyou just did20:46
flaccidoh20:46
Makerea bad joke I may add20:47
flaccidwhere can i read the project plan and project obvjectives? just looks like someone using uec to me20:47
Makerethe project plan is in finnish on the blog20:49
flaccidwhat is the objective in 1 sentence in english?20:49
Makerewell the plan was to research UEC to see if it's worth teaching at school (university) and is there any value of it for the students20:50
flaccidyou needed a project for that?20:51
Makerewe're (hopefully) wrapping up the project tomorrow, presenting the end report and demoing the system to our Project instructor20:52
flaccidok, well good luck20:53
Makerewell the studies include a project related to windows, networking or linux20:53
Makereand it was only a 8 week project20:53
flaccidpersonally i would be making a course that is about teaching cloud computing fundamentals, then move in to private and public clouds. do eucalyptus and maybe at least 1 other private cloud and use UEC to be independent of linux distribution20:54
MakereI think cloud computing is just not ready yet20:56
Makereespecially UEC20:56
Makeretoo many problems, with not enough solutions20:56
flaccidreally? it's been ready for years. eucalyptus is still a bit young though. aws ec2 is not ..20:56
flaccidUEC != cloud computing20:57
MakereI know20:57
MakereI wouldn't still put my entire server room into EC2 cloud20:59
MakereI must say that I don't have much experience on EC221:01
Makereso let me correct myself and say that UEC is not ready yet21:02
flaccidyeah21:04
flaccidmany companies have moved prod or dev to the ec2 cloud and quite effectively. companies like zynga wouldn't be able to operate without it21:05
smoserfyi: http://ubuntu-smoser.blogspot.com/2010/12/ubuntu-natty-cluster-compute-instances.html21:31
smoserubuntu cluster compute instances now available.21:31
liamI cannot connect to my ec2 instance... It is created from the daily ubuntu ami release... Could it be that the instance can only be reached from the US?23:35
flaccidconnect with what?23:39
liamflaccid: ssh and I cant event ping the server....23:39
flaccidyou need both those open in the security group used by the instance23:40
liamflaccid: could you try to ping it at ec2-50-18-57-32.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com please23:40
flaccidthats the internal iface23:40
flaccidnobody can reach that remotely23:40
liamflaccid: its says public dns...?23:41
flaccidroot@sandbox:/opt/rightscale# host ec2-50-18-57-32.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com23:41
flaccidec2-50-18-57-32.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com has address 10.160.119.15223:41
liamflaccid: so can you reach the server?23:42
flaccidflaccid: nobody can reach that remotely23:42
flaccidwhat is in your security group?23:42
liamflaccid: ok so I didn't have ssh in the security group.... that is probably why?23:43
flaccidyes23:43
flaccidsame goes for ping23:43
liamflaccid: ok thank you.23:43
flaccidyou should read up on security groups. its your nat firewall.23:43
liamyes I have used it before with other servers I just completely forgot....23:44
