• Tutorial
• Cloudmesh documentation

Basic Steps

• Install Cloudmesh client and configure it to access a Comet virtual cluster.
• Install an Ubuntu front end following the tutorial.
• Generate networking information using cmutil.py and send to front end.

wget http://bit.ly/vc-cmutil
python cmutil.py nodesfile
scp vcn*.txt <USER>@vct<##>.sdsc.edu:~/

• If you're on a Mac, use cURL instead of wget for the first command.

curl -L http://bit.ly/vc-cmutil -o cmutil.py

• Get the deploy.sh script and configure the front end.

wget -O deploy.sh http://bit.ly/vc-deployment
chmod +x deploy.sh
sudo ./deploy.sh

• Power on the compute nodes to install.
