Re: Open stack on RHEL - ZPRO interest

[Vitale, Joseph]

Hello Barton,

We just started using  XCAT  to test Red Hat deployment, control 
servers( boot/shutdown/power on ).  

Goal is for another  zLinux  guest to request  XCAT  deploy new servers 
for 30+ days  and retire them.   Will  ZPRO  offer similar capabilities and 
when would that be available ?


Thanks
Joe

For those interested.  We have a project to replace xcat/smapi with a full 
backend for openstack on z/vm as part of our zpro offering. The objective is 
for a user of openstack to have control over a z/vm service the same as their 
vmware service.
Since our API already includes any or none of VMSecure, RACF, dirmaint, and 
specifically eliminates the need for SMAPI, I'm hoping our solution will 
simplify your environment immensely.

Re: ? FTP permissions on FEDORA ?

I am just thrilled we got it working today . I have been working on this on
and off for about three weeks.
I'm an old z/VM (VM/370) guy and can get very confused with LINUX..

Again my thanks to everyone who helped.

Re: ? FTP permissions on FEDORA ?

[Grzegorz Powiedziuk]

Sometimes, I can't believe that issues like that are still there. I
recently had a very similar issue with IBM KVM
I mean it is just a simple ftp url ... it shouldn't be that hard to parse
it even if user forgets or add to many of slashes somewhere out there.
IBM KVM for example didn't like like url like this:
 ftp://user:root@x.x.x.x/
I had an ftpd server which was masking the real path into "/"

That was to much for IBM KVM  (or actually Red Hat/Fedora which was under
the hood). I've uncompressed the initrd and found the script which was
parsing the url and  as far as I remember it needed /something/ to work
properly ;)

Here's What Happens When an 18 Year Old Buys a Mainframe

[Mark Post]

Cross-posted to Linux-390, IBMVM, and IBM-Main

For anyone that wasn't able to attend Connor Krukosky's SHARE presentation 
about buying a mainframe and setting it up in his basement, the video is now 
available!

It was quite the talk and he received a standing ovation from the audience of 
140+ mainframers.  Which included a number of IBM executives. :)  He was 
invited to give his talk in Poughkeepsie at the IBM z test labs where he got a 
second standing ovation from the several hundred people there.

Check it out.

Re: ? FTP permissions on FEDORA ?

[Offer Baruch]

Try adding an extra / at the beginning of the path:
ftp://root:pass4root@172.17.51.126//var/ftp/linins/

That is a common issue as well...

Re: ? FTP permissions on FEDORA ?

[Grzegorz Powiedziuk]

ok, now it is is probably one of many very common "little" issues with
paths and proper syntax.
Take your exact path from your "inst.repo" and paste it into your
webbrowser and make sure that you can see .treeinfo file in there. Can you?
Those installators are very sensitive about little things like missing or
extra "/" at the end of the path.

Also, another way to debug this is looking into ftp server log file while
you run your install.
In the log you should be seeing what exactly from FTP server's perspective,
the linux install is trying to open.
This usually gives me an idea what am I  doing wrong.

It might make sense to use lftp or such and confirm that you
can addess the content (do the CD and read the directory)
manually before trying an install

Please place SELinux into permissive mode generally on the
FTP server where you have loop mounted the ISO; as I recall,
there were some problems with accessing loop-mounted content
via FTP in some Fedora versions as well

it is possible to 'rsync' the ISO off, into /var/ftp/whatever/
, and do a selinux relabel as well
restorecon -rv /var/ftp

or just allow the FTPD general access into system

setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access 1

the ISO image have to be mounted with a loop back device  for example
mount -o loop /downloads/rhel-server-7.2-s390x-dvd.iso /var/ftp/linins/
And then you ftp into it so you can see actual content of iso image

? FTP permissions on FEDORA ?

[Tom Huegel]

Background:
I have FEDORA F23 running and it is working well.
I want to use this as a FTP server for installing other distros ,, RedHat
and SUSE.
I've downloaded the ISO's from the respective vendors.

On F23 I have started vsftp, stopped the firewall, created a directory in
/var/ftp/ called linins, mounted the ISO's there, chmod a=rwx
/var/ftp/linins

Everything looks good.
>From CMS I can FTP to the directory and download files.

The Problem:
When I try to install either of the other OS's I get this error message:
" server denied you to change to the given directory"

My path looks something like this:
inst.repo=
ftp://root:mypasswordt@172.17.51.126/var/ftp/linins/rhel-server-7.2-s390x-dvd.iso
 <==RedHat

Any ideas what I am missing?
Thanks

Re: Open stack on RHEL

[Barton Robinson]

For those interested.  We have a project to replace xcat/smapi with a
full backend for openstack on z/vm as part of our zpro offering. The
objective is for a user of openstack to have control over a z/vm service
the same as their vmware service.
Since our API already includes any or none of VMSecure, RACF, dirmaint,
and specifically eliminates the need for SMAPI, I'm hoping our solution
will simplify your environment immensely.

Yes, xCAT only works "out of the box" with DIRMAINT/SMAPI/RACF.other 3rd

via SMSG.
For this you need only one Linux server per SSI.
And no, there is no offering from RedHat, we had to code that part (API via 
SMSG) ourselves.
But dashboard for example and most other components is possible to download and 
setup.

Hi

Is there any difference running a openstack  in Linux running on x86
and open stack on zVM ?

As far as the interfaces to the hypervisor(s) go, yes.  Other than that, there 
shouldn't be.  I haven't heard of Red Hat offering their OpenStack product on z 
Systems, however.

[Davis, Larry (National VM Capability)]

CA has been looking for people to give them the API's they are looking for, but 
IBM is not sharing all there interfaces either

Yes, xCAT only works "out of the box" with DIRMAINT/SMAPI/RACF.other 3rd
