Hi Steve, The focus in Apache Whirr is to make use (as much as possible) of vanilla OS installs. We want to support both systems based on apt-get and on yum. So far we've done most of our testing on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS but everything should also work on an AMI like Amazon Linux.
So if you create a template based on the standard Ubuntu 10.04 ISO everything should work out of the box. This is the related JIRA issue, I've done some work on this in the past: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-182 Let me know if I can help in any way as you make progress on this. -- Andrei Savu / andreisavu.ro On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 11:29 PM, Steve Salevan <steve.sale...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hey guys, > I'm building some VM images to enable Whirr to work on top of Eucalyptus, > and I was wondering if you guys could point me to any documentation or > code/scripts which you use to build out the EC2 and Rackspace images for > each of the Whirr VM roles (hadoop-namenode, hadoop-datanode, zookeeper, > etc.). > > Thanks very much for the consideration! > -Steve Salevan > steve.sale...@gmail.com >
