=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [01:58] hi there [01:59] I have a question regarding scaling up resources like memory on UEC vm's [02:02] how does this work? === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [02:15] in UEC there is no way to scale memory up [02:15] general idea of "cloud" is horizontal scaling [02:16] well different instance types can have different amounts of memory [02:16] you can vertical scale mem and cpu [02:17] right.. i was thinking that the quesiton was regarding an existing (running) instance [02:17] ie, hotplug memory [02:17] that would be nice :) [02:20] okay, so horizontal scaling would be creating a copy of the running vm and they would work as one? [02:20] smoser, it is regarding an exising instance [02:21] depends what you are serving - if its scalable e.g. an application server behind a frontend lb [02:21] a squid proxy server for example [02:22] multiple backend proxies can work like that [02:25] is it correct what I said? about two virtual machines working as one? regarding horizontal scalability [02:25] no [02:25] two or more separate instances [02:30] so for scaling up what gets replicated are the instances [02:31] in a general sense, yes [02:31] nice [02:38] It's not quite hotplug (requires reboot) but on EC2 you can scale up and down a single instance: http://alestic.com/2011/02/ec2-change-type [02:38] Don't know about UEC. [02:44] where can I find some practical information on private cloud/UEC? Like what I can and what I can not do with this technology? [02:44] see the topic [02:44] and euca docs [02:45] UEC does not provide ebs root, and somewhat as a result, does not allow StopInstance [02:52] ok, thanks for the answers. I'll check out the euca docs, I already saw the Cloud Portal docs. === koolhead11|afk is now known as koolhead11 [05:23] hi all === koolhead11 is now known as koolhead17 === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [08:03] Morning o/ [10:48] Hi cloud people - playing with my first cloud setup and failing to get an image running. What's the secret of how to get a emi when you upload an image bundle? [10:51] rwat, what is the cloud controller? === nijaba_afk is now known as nijaba [10:53] koolhead17: I'm using eucalyptus-cc 2.0.1 on natty, if that's what you mean [10:55] rwat, http://cssoss.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/eucabookv2-0.pdf see if this helps. [10:56] kim0, there [10:56] here [10:56] can we change topic and put this book link there? [10:56] Yeah why not :) [10:56] let me shorten it though [10:57] yeah that looks useful [10:57] yeah sure [10:57] * koolhead17 thinks of updating it 4 natty soon. [10:59] when I try to activate an image from the store I just get "Bad request signature" [10:59] no indication of what bit of the cloud thinks the request has a bad signature === kim0 changed the topic of #ubuntu-cloud to: All questions relating to Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (UEC), Ubuntu over EC2, cloud configuration management tools are welcome | Ask clearly, and wait patiently for an answer | Ubuntu-Cloud mailing list at http://goo.gl/fpm0F | News, Venus and Involvement at Cloud Portal http://cloud.ubuntu.com/ | Check EucaBook http://j.mp/h2CEY5 [11:00] rwat, i would suggest look at the document and see if you have followed it step by step [11:01] kim0, cool!! :D [11:04] is it only NCs that need bridged networking? [11:14] for testing purposes, is it compulsory to have the CC be the IP gateway for all the other servers? [11:17] rwat: that's the supported networking mode .. so pretty much yes [11:23] kim0: ok I'll give that a go [11:24] in natty what is the purpose of eucalyptus-network ? [11:26] in the book it seems to refer to 192.168.20.0/24 in the text but 192.168.10.0/24 in the code examples - are these really two separate networks or a typo? [11:27] a typo [11:36] also confusing: a local network with the CC as a gateway would seem to imply some kind of NAT setup, but there's no iptables config mentioned in the book [12:32] ok I think my networking is now compliant with my interpretation of the manual, but I've still got a bunch of issues [12:32] all the commands seem to work [12:32] I successfully uploaded a kernel bundle [12:33] (this was for the standard fedora image) [12:33] I can see it if I ask euca-describe-images [12:34] uploaded ramdisk but didn't return id and isn't visible via euca2ools [12:34] can't connect hybridfox - it just gives me a blank error [12:35] can't run an image from the store "Bad request signature" [12:35] wondering if thesee are related and ring any bells with people === chuck_ is now known as zul [13:42] kim0, [13:59] o/ === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [14:09] kim0, seems like i have to spend nyt in office for the cloud day [14:09] kirkland, hey [14:09] koolhead17: hi [14:37] koolhead17: can't you make it from home ? [14:37] kim0, no internet yet. just shifted to new place!! [14:38] ah [14:38] I hope it's gonna be enough fun to offset the pain :) [14:46] pain is worthy enough to be taken [14:46] :d [14:48] hehe === koolhead17 is now known as koolhead17|afk === chuck_ is now known as zul === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === niemeyer is now known as niemeyer_lunch === daker is now known as daker_ [18:53] smoser: hi!
