[Bug 425933] [NEW] Eucalyptus, avahi-publish component discovery, and eucalyptus configuration not functional if front-end machine has more than one interface

[Daniel Nurmi]

Public bug reported:

The UEC installer configures only one interface (one can choose manually
which to configure), but eucalyptus needs more configuration if a front-
end is using more than one interface.  For example, if 'eth0' is
connected to a public (user) facing network, and 'eth1' is connected to
a node facing network, then VNET_PUBINTERFACE should be set to 'eth0'
and VNET_PRIVINTERFACE should be set to 'eth1' in eucalyptus.conf in the
eucalyptus-cc package.  In addition, if a user chooses 'eth0' when
installing, the avahi-publish process that gets started by eucalyptus-cc
will not be broadcasting on eth1 when the user tries to install a node.
The workaround is to install the front-end, stop eucalyptus services,
configure the networking manually, bring up eucalyptus services, install
UEC node.  This process could be better integrated/partially automated
if the user could inform the system as to the roles of each network
device at  front-end installation time.
