cloud-init description for newly launched VMs
This repository contains config file for cloud-init that converts plain Ubuntu LTS to SDI4Apps platform.
See the following sections to see how to launch it on various clouds:
Amazon AWS
In the Step 3 of Launch Wizard, when launching Ubuntu 16.04, click on Advanced Details, then in the section User Data click As file and upload the file user-data-xenial.yaml.
CERIT-SC OpenNebula
Log into OpenNebula web interface. Instantiate the template 3717 "SDI4Apps platform 16.04 Xenial".
It can be also submitted from command line. Download the files user-data-xenial.yaml, authenticate, then run launch_on_ceritsc.sh.
Setup for CERIT-SC OpenNebula Command Line
Install package opennebula-tools from repository. On a Ubuntu 14.04 box, do the following:
sudo su -
wget -q -O- http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/Ubuntu/repo.key | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/4.14/Ubuntu/14.04/ stable opennebula" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opennebula.list
apt-get update
apt-get install opennebula-tools
/usr/share/one/install_gems
exit
Then you have to set up authentication. You will need an X509 digital certificate from an IGTF-approved certification authority imported in your browser for that.
- register your digital certificate at Perun account management
- export that certificate and its private key from your browser into a file, named e.g. mycreds.p12
- create an OpenNebula access token from the certificate using the following commands:
# extracts the public certificate into file usercert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -in mycreds.p12 -out usercert.pem -clcerts -nokeys
# extract the private key userkey.pem
openssl pkcs12 -in mycreds.p12 -out userkey.pem -nocerts -nodes
# generates Opennebula access token
oneuser login -v $LOGNAME --x509 --cert usercert.pem --key userkey.pem --force
- add the following at the end of your ~/.bashrc file:
#env vars for OpenNebula tools
export ONE_HOST=https://cloud.metacentrum.cz
export ONE_XMLRPC=$ONE_HOST:6443/RPC2
Google Computing Engine
Must be submitted from command line.
Download the files user-data-xenial.yaml and launch_on_google_ce.sh, run the script.
