Message #00219
Juju and MAAS
Hi Devels. I'm continuing to test MAAS under 12.04 and keep running
into show-stoppers. Before I explain, I want to understand one thing:
is MAAS working for anybody following the standard installation steps?
I've been going over them time and time again and I have never been
able to get the 'Wordpress backed by MySQL' to install smoothly.
Perhaps this is still in beta?
On with my current hangup: I'm running six nodes plus the MAASserver
using Virtualbox and they are all connected in a private network
("intnet" is the vbox vernacular.) The MAASserver has a second NIC
that connects to the Internet. All nodes were manually configured to
use virsh for their power, although I have never seen a node Wake On
LAN. Perhaps this is a weakness of Virtualbox? For this reason I've
been starting the nodes manually when I think they're being called
upon and it's worked okay as far as getting them all in the "READY"
state on the MAAS dashboard.
But when I bootstrap juju and install Wordpress and MySQL, even
starting the nodes manually doesn't seem to 'activate' them. It
appears to me that it wants nodes 1, 2, and 4 to be running, so I
start them and they boot to a login screen. In the MAAS dashboard they
are now "Deployed" and "Allocated to Mike," however only node #1 seems
to be 'seen' by juju :

When I initially ran 'juju status' I was prompted to accept the ssh
fingerprint of the first node. I never saw a prompt for accepting the
second and fourth nodes. Could this be why it fails to contact them?
Thanks,
Mike
