| Mtl_ | Hey there. I just installed MaaS and saw that It proceeds to automatic server installation with PXE+DHCP+IPMI/WakeOnLan. But I was wondering ... How can it be possible in a real datacenter like OVH ? | 20:18 |
| lifeless | Mtl_: you mean ovh.co.uk ? | 20:33 |
| Mtl_ | yes sir. | 20:33 |
| lifeless | if they give you acccess to IPMI and your own layer 2 network for deployment it should work fine | 20:34 |
| lifeless | if they don't, then you'd need them to offer you a MaaS endpoint | 20:34 |
| lifeless | (or some other bare metal cloud API) | 20:36 |
| Mtl_ | They offer a kind of "own network" called vRack http://www.ovh.co.uk/dedicated_servers/virtual_rack.xml | 20:36 |
| Mtl_ | whitch connect dedicted servers with a virtual switch | 20:36 |
| Mtl_ | By the way, I bet that the Ubuntu Cloud Infrastructure is nothing without MaaS | 20:39 |
| lifeless | what do you mean ? | 20:39 |
| Mtl_ | That the deployment of a Ubuntu Cloud Infrastructure is not possible / useful without MaaS | 20:42 |
| lifeless | oh; I wouldn't agree with that statement | 20:48 |
| lifeless | though I guess it depends on the exact definition of UCI | 20:52 |
| Mtl_ | Thanks for all | 20:52 |
| lifeless | but you can certainly deploy an OpenStack cloud using Ubuntu packages w/out MaaS | 20:53 |
| lifeless | probably still using Juju - e.g. Juju on top of Nova baremetal | 20:53 |
| lifeless | in fact https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuCloudInfrastructure describes three ways to install | 20:53 |
| lifeless | only one of which uses MaaS | 20:53 |
| === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying | ||
| Mtl_ | Aah right. | 20:58 |
| Mtl_ | And MaaS is really dedicted for HyperScale | 20:58 |
| Mtl_ | Like if you have your own datacenter and racking a lot of servers | 20:58 |
| Mtl_ | to avoid the installation process on workers | 20:59 |
| === freeflying is now known as freeflying_away | ||
| lifeless | Mtl_: yes, it is automation | 21:52 |
| lifeless | Mtl_: if you don't have enough hardware to pay off the (time, learning, etc) overhead of installing MaaS, then you don't need it. | 21:52 |
| lifeless | Mtl_: but you can still get UCI ;) | 21:52 |
| Mtl_ | Thanks for help ! | 21:55 |
