    This document provides instructions for installing Eucalyptus cloud computing software on CentOS to enable private cloud capabilities. It describes installing Eucalyptus on a front-end server and multiple compute nodes. Key steps include disabling SELinux, configuring networking and firewalls, installing Java, Eucalyptus RPMs, and configuring Eucalyptus on all machines to enable API compatibility with Amazon EC2. Test operations like bundling, registering, and running a VM image are demonstrated to validate the Eucalyptus installation.

    Installing Eucalyptus on CentOS

    Setup Eucalyptus is software that enables you to run your own cloud. It aims to be API compatible with Amazons EC2, which means you can use most of the tools that are written for that system with Eucalyptus too. This articles describes my successful attempt at installing Eucalyptus 1.4 on CentOS 5.2 with managed network mode. The installation is performed on two different types of machines:

    The front-end, which is the machine controlling the cloud The compute nodes, which run the virtual machines

    Front-end

    The front-end has two network interfaces. One (eth0) is connected to the compute nodes and has IP address 192.168.1.254. The other (eth1) is connected to the LAN and has IP address 172.16.0.254.

    We start by disabling SELinux. This is accomplished by editing the file /etc/selinux/config:

    SELINUX=disabled

    Now reboot for this change to take effect.

    Allow the machine to forward IP packets by editing /etc/sysctl.conf:

    net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

    and change the value immediately without rebooting:

    sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf

    Start with a clean iptables firewall and allow NAT:

    iptables --flush iptables --table nat --flush iptables --delete-chain iptables --table nat --delete-chain iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface eth1 -j MASQUERADE iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface eth0 -j ACCEPT

    Make the changes permanent by running:

    /etc/init.d/iptables save

    Download the Sun Java Development Kit version 6 and install it:

    chmod +x jdk-6u13-linux-i586-rpm.bin

    ./jdk-6u13-linux-i586-rpm.bin

    Download Apache ANT and install it:

    cd /opt tar -zxvf apache-ant-1.7.1-bin.tar.gz

    Download the EC2 tools and install them:

    cd /opt unzip /root/ec2-ami-tools-1.3-26357.zip unzip /root/ec2-api-tools-1.3-30349.zip

    Some environment variables need to be present for Eucalyptus to work. Edit the file /etc/profile and add the following:

    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_13 export EC2_HOME=/opt/ec2-api-tools-1.3-30349 export EC2_AMITOOL_HOME=/opt/ec2-ami-tools-1.3-26357 export PATH=$PATH:/opt/apache-ant1.7.1/bin:$EC2_HOME/bin:$EC2_AMITOOL_HOME/bin

    Install some dependencies:

    yum install dhcp xen-libs bridge-utils

    Download the Eucalyptus files and extract the RPM dependencies file:

    tar -zxvf eucalyptus-rpm-deps-i386.tar.gz

    Install the Eucalyptus RPMs:

    rpm -Uvh euca-axis2c-1.4-1.i386.rpm euca-httpd-1.4-1.i386.rpm euca-libvirt-1.4-1.i386.rpm eucalyptus-1.4-2.i386.rpm eucalyptus-cloud-1.4-2.i386.rpm eucalyptus-gl-1.4-2.i386.rpm eucalyptus-cc-1.4-2.i386.rpm

    The configuration file /opt/eucalyptus/etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf contains the following for our setup:

    EUCALYPTUS="/opt/eucalyptus" START_CLOUD="Y" START_CC="Y"

    START_NC="N" ENABLE_WS_SECURITY="Y" LOGLEVEL="DEBUG" CLOUD_PORT="8773" CLOUD_SSL_PORT="8443" CC_PORT="8774" SCHEDPOLICY="GREEDY" NODES="192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.3" NC_SERVICE="axis2/services/EucalyptusNC" NC_PORT="8775" VNET_INTERFACE="eth0" VNET_DHCPDAEMON="/usr/sbin/dhcpd" VNET_MODE="MANAGED" VNET_SUBNET="10.0.0.0" VNET_NETMASK="255.0.0.0" VNET_DNS="172.16.0.1" VNET_ADDRSPERNET="64"

    VNET_PUBLICIPS="172.16.0.11 172.16.0.12 172.16.0.13 172.16.0.14"

    Compute nodes

    The compute nodes have one network interface (eth0) which is connected to the front-end and they have IP addresses ranging from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.3 (for three compute nodes).

    We start by disabling SELinux. This is accomplished by editing the file /etc/selinux/config:

    SELINUX=disabled

    Now reboot for this change to take effect.

    Start with a clean iptables firewall:

    iptables --flush iptables --table nat --flush iptables --delete-chain iptables --table nat --delete-chain

    Make the changes permanent by running:

    /etc/init.d/iptables save

    Install Xen:

    yum install xen

    Make sure the correct kernel with xen enabled is started at boot by editing the file /boot/grub/menu.lst:

    default=0

    And reboot.

    Download the Eucalyptus files and extract the RPM dependencies file:

    tar -zxvf eucalyptus-rpm-deps-i386.tar.gz

    Install the Eucalyptus RPMs:

    rpm -Uvh euca-axis2c-1.4-1.i386.rpm euca-libvirt-1.4-1.i386.rpm euca-httpd-1.4-1.i386.rpm eucalyptus-1.4-2.i386.rpm eucalyptus-gl-1.4-2.i386.rpm

    eucalyptus-nc-1.4-2.i386.rpm

    Make a directory for holding the running instances:

    mkdir -p /usr/local/instances

    The configuration file /opt/eucalyptus/etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf contains the following for our setup:

    EUCALYPTUS="/opt/eucalyptus" START_CLOUD="N" START_CC="N" START_NC="Y" ENABLE_WS_SECURITY="Y" LOGLEVEL="DEBUG" NC_PORT="8775" INSTANCE_PATH="/usr/local/instances" VNET_INTERFACE="peth0" VNET_BRIDGE="xenbr0" VNET_MODE="MANAGED"

    Start Eucalyptus by running:

    /etc/init.d/eucalyptus start

    Back to the front-end Start Eucalyptus by running:

    /etc/init.d/eucalyptus start

    If all went according to plan, the following website should be viewable: https://172.16.0.254:8443. Login with username admin and password admin. Add a cluster with a name you like, e.g. my_cluster, and the IP address of the front-end, in our case 172.16.0.254.

    Now download the x509 certificate to be able to connect to the Eucalyptus setup. Unzip the contents of this file:

    mkdir /root/.euca cd /root/.euca unzip /root/euca2-admin-x509.zip

    There is a file containing aliases for several commands you run that needs to be sourced every time you login. It is easier to do this automatically, so edit the file ~/.bash_profile and add this line to the end:

    source /root/.euca/eucarc

    Synchronise the keys between all the hosts:

    /opt/eucalyptus/usr/sbin/euca_sync_key -c /opt/eucalyptus/etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf

    Install ruby to be able to run the EC2 command line tools:

    yum install ruby

    You can now see if the EC2 command line tools and Eucalyptus are working:

    ec2-describe-availability-zones verbose

    This should give you an overview of the running system, with a listing of the compute nodes and the capacity of them in terms of number of running instances they can hold.

    Extract the example VM image from Eucalyptus:

    tar -zxvf euca-ttylinux.tgz

    Bundle the image, upload it and register it:

    ec2-bundle-image --image /root/ttylinux/vmlinuz-2.6.16.33-xen --kernel true ec2-upload-bundle --bucket kernel-bucket --manifest /tmp/vmlinuz2.6.16.33-xen.manifest.xml ec2-register kernel-bucket/vmlinuz-2.6.16.33-xen.manifest.xml

    ec2-bundle-image --image /root/ttylinux/ttylinux.img ec2-upload-bundle --bucket image-bucket --manifest /tmp/ttylinux.img.manifest.xml ec2-register image-bucket/ttylinux.img.manifest.xml

    If all went well, you can list the images just uploaded:

    ec2-describe-images

    Add a keypair for the current user to Eucalyptus:

    ec2-add-keypair admin_key > /root/admin_key.private chmod 0600 /root/admin_key.private

    Run a VM (change emi-F4CB118E with the emi-identifier returned by ec2-describe-images):

    ec2-run-instances emi-F4CB118E -k admin_key

    Get a list of instances:

    ec2-describe-instances

    To see the console output of the running instance (change i-3F170798 with the instance-identifier returned by ec2-describe-instances):

    ec2-get-console-output i-3F170798
