Re: openstack -- xcp - devstack

 

Hello,

Thanks a lot for you answer.
The problem has been fixed. I had to set the HOST_IP_IFACE flag to  "eth3"
instead of "eth0" in the localrc file. DomU is now created and running.
Actually, the script finishes its execution while showing this message:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ echo
'################################################################################'
################################################################################
+ echo ''

+ echo 'All Finished!'
All Finished!
+ echo 'Now, you can monitor the progress of the stack.sh installation by '
Now, you can monitor the progress of the stack.sh installation by
+ echo 'tailing /opt/stack/run.sh.log from within your domU.'
tailing /opt/stack/run.sh.log from within your domU.
+ echo ''

+ echo 'ssh into your domU now: '\''ssh stack@192.168.1.55'\'' using your
password'
ssh into your domU now: 'ssh stack@ip' using your password
+ echo 'and then do: '\''tail -f /opt/stack/run.sh.log'\'''
and then do: 'tail -f /opt/stack/run.sh.log'
+ echo ''

+ echo 'When the script completes, you can then visit the OpenStack
Dashboard'
When the script completes, you can then visit the OpenStack Dashboard
+ echo 'at http://ip, and contact other services at the usual ports.'
at http://ip, and contact other services at the usual ports.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, I was unable to ssh the new domU. It shows this error
"*ssh_exchange_identification:
Connection closed by remote host*" . So, I tried to log into DomU via "xe
console", then I noticed that the created domU does not have an internet
connection. That's why (i think) the script run.sh was not successful.

How can I solve this problem?

Thank you,
Afef
