| − | ==Installing From Source==
| |
| − | There is currently an AUR package, {{AUR|ganeti}}, that is incomplete and not updated. For now, build from source.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Create the ganeti backing store. If you have pysical volumes to create your backing on then this is pointless. Ganeti will complain if you give it less than 20G.

| |
| − | $ PYTHON=python2.7 ./configure --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
| |
| − |
| |
| − | however 'autotools/build-bash-completion' fails even this because it has a '#!/usr/bin/python' shebang hardcoded. Fix this with a text editor, changing it to '#!/usr/bin/python2.7'

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Note the use of -mmin 8 in the find above, that was specific to me, you may need to adjust it depending on how smoothly this is going.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Create ganeti's needed dirs:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | # mkdir /etc/ganeti
| |
| − | # mkdir -p /srv/ganeti{os,export}
| |
| − | # mkdir -p /var/{log,lib}/ganeti
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Pick a name for your cluster:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | # echo 192.168.0.199 mycluster.lan mycluster >> /etc/hosts
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If this is your first interaction with ganeti, try not to recoil at the use of /etc/hosts. Ganeti basically refuses to do anything without name service records for everything. Try not to worry too much about this. Also note that the name of the cluster is its own thing and can't be the name of the root node, it must have a unique ip and fqdn.

This article or section is out of date.
From Ganeti project page:
- Ganeti is a cluster virtual server management software tool built on top of existing virtualization technologies such as Xen or KVM and other Open Source software.
Warning: This is a very rough draft. Following the directions may or may not cause your entire server cluster to erupt into flames.
KVM
Lets fire up some networking.
# modprobe bridge
/etc/network/br1
DESCRIPTION='A static ethernet connection for interface eth1'
INTERFACE='br1'
CONNECTION='bridge'
BRIDGE_INTERFACES="eth1"
IP='static'
ADDR='192.168.0.1'
NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
BROADCAST='192.168.0.255'
/etc/rc.conf
NETWORKS=(br1 br0)
NETWORK_PERSIST="no"
netcfg br1
This creates a br1 interface and assigns it a static IP address. For more sophisticated setups, see the netcfg article.
Lets get some disk backing:
Make sure you created a ganeti_backing_store.img
# modprobe loop
# losetup /dev/loop0 ganeti_backing_store.img
# pvcreate /dev/loop0
You can ignore any 'file descriptor leak' errors here. That's a problem with bash, not you, though it should get fixed.
# vgcreate ganeti /dev/loop0
Load the necessary kernel modules, either for Intel processors
# modprobe kvm
# modprobe kvm-intel
or AMD processors
# modprobe kvm
# modprobe kvm-amd
At this point begins the period where you will attempt various incantations beginning with gnt-cluster init, they will fail, and you will have to start over.
The following I found useful.
# rm -fr /var/{log,lib}/ganeti/*
# rm -fr /srv/ganeti
# pkill ganeti
# pkill gnt
# mkdir -p /srv/ganeti/{os,export}
Create your ganeti cluster:
gnt-cluster init --nic-parameters=link=br1 --master-netdev=br1 --enabled-hypervisor=kvm --vg-name ganeti mycluster
Xen
