[12:54] what kind of VMs run on each NC, what do they do ..etc [12:56] some app need more RAM some need more processing power [12:58] obviously :) [12:58] kim0: Is it possible to add more VM types to UEC [12:59] Might make sense to talk to your hardware vendor too [12:59] I'm sure you can edit current types, but not exactly sure you can add new ones (probably can though) [13:04] ok [13:07] kim0: suitable HDD ? SAN with RAID10 [13:08] is it a good option [13:08] without requirements .. anything can be good :) [13:08] raid10 is generally a good default though [13:09] I'd recommend just starting with what you have .. then if you face any problems, come and ask questions [13:09] ok [13:13] kim0: Actual requirement is to setup a cloud like EC2 or slicehost [13:13] well since you already have a uec setup running in production, you can already do that [13:17] shahid_: I would recommend you build a small cloud, have users test it, measure performance, collect feedback, then ask questions on how to make it better in directionX [13:18] ok === chuck_ is now known as zul [13:40] kim0: I have one more question [13:41] shoot [13:41] If I use a 8 core processor I can create max 8 VM's [13:42] If I use latest multi-threaded processes such as 8core but 16 threads is it possible to create 16 VM or just 8VM's [13:43] hmm I am not really sure 8cores = 8VMs [13:43] perhaps TeTeT can comment on that [13:43] Hi TeTeT [13:46] TeTeT: If I use latest multi-threaded processes such as 8core but 16 threads is it possible to create 16 VM or just 8VM's [13:46] shahid_: try waiting a bit more [13:47] ok [13:47] shahid_: you can manually override the setting with MAX_CPU= in the eucalyptus.conf on the node controller [13:48] shahid_: if you don't have heavy computational needs, I would say that 32 is a safe value to start from with such a processor [13:48] ok [13:49] thanks TeTeT & kim0 [13:49] Good luck === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === hggdh_ is now known as hggdh === niemeyer is now known as niemeyer_lunch === niemeyer_lunch is now known as niemeyer === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === daker is now known as daker_ === hallyn is now known as hallyn-afk === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === niemeyer is now known as niemeyer_away === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates === chuck_ is now known as zul
