[ubuntu-cloud] Questions regarding UEC

[Ankush Grover]

Hi Friends,

I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 and configured UEC on that machine. I am
facing few issues and have some questions.

Instances were getting restarted but were not accessible with the
default packages of eucalyptus. Once I upgraded the eucalyptus
packages the instances were accessible.

However, I am only able to run instances if I give --addressing
private. I have not given any public ips as I want to VMs to get the
IPs from the already configured DHCP server. For this I have setup
VNET_MODE="SYSTEM" in /etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus.conf. How do I skip
--addressing private and let VMs take the IPs from the DHCP server
which has been configured for the whole company.


Error which I get when I try to run instances

euca-run-instances -k mykey emi-E0F21081 -t c1.medium
FinishedVerify: Not enough resources available: addresses (try
--addressing private)


Moreover issues I am facing is that I am not able to configure
Elasticfox(firefox plugin). One has to add EC2_URL in the "Regions"
section however, Elasticfox is not allowing to Add the url and If I
open this url in the browser I get "500 Internal Error Issue".

EC2_URL: http://172.16.4.107:8773/services/Eucalyptus


Further questions I have :

1) How to add/remove images from UEC? There is 1 corrupted image which
I want to remove and also want to add some more images. Infact, I have
downloaded Eucalyptus certificed images but I don't know how to add
those images.

2) How to build Windows images for UEC? Is there any documentation of
building Windows AMI for UEC or Windows AMI available for UEC?

3) How many images are supported by UEC?
