I am able to get an HP AUTH token with curl and use it to list sec.
groups, am not sure how to pass that to jclouds, so Whirr gets auth
failure just looking up images. I tried setting whirr.credential to the
HP AUTH token and also tried using the secret_key.
Workaround would be to supply Whirr with a pre-exisiting security group
to use, then I can modify the sec. group with a w.x.y.z/32, CIDR list
after Whirr runs. (On HPCloud, the number of sec. groups is limited to
about 7 by default, so I easily run out of these (increasing the limit
is taking time).)
Based on http://code.google.com/p/jclouds/issues/detail?id=814 it looks
like what I need is possible:
client.createSecurityGroupRuleAllowingSecurityGroupId(securityGroup.getId(),
ingress, securityGroup.getId());

Thanks for the info.
I would like to use the ec2 style extension on hpcloud, but I will see
if I get to that. I'm still making my custom image.
Note: hpcloud supports ec2 style metadata like:
wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/local-ipv4

Adrian,
Trying the patch did not consume too much time; I can use the

form for hw and images.
There's a new patch, btw. I found the issue you tripped over and
fixed it in WHIRR-593-incTemplate.patch
Here is the next issue: start 2 zookeepers and they cannot communicate
because the jclouds-$cluster_name security group that Whirr created
only
gave port 22 permission.
a. how to specify ports to open between all the nodes created
(rather than
open to all of Internet or all of LAN)?
I don't think we have a setting for this, yet.
b. how to specify the name of an existing sec. group which also has
the
"applies to all instances that are bound to it" property.
supporting openstack means adding support for their security group
extension. I've made note of it here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-118
I suppose another way would be to use "openstack-nova-ec2" provider
and specify hp as the endpoint. This could possibly work, and then
you can use EC2 security group properties.
I hope this can be done without resorting to (n^2 - n)/2 distinct port
permissions.

Sorry the patch didn't work for you, but glad to hear you discovered
the params you need. I'll try *exactly* what you did and not ask you
to test another patch until that works :)

Good to know. I will try this.
Using the latest WHIRR-593 patch for jclouds 1.5.0b10, I can start a
64bit
"noop" machine which ends up as xsmall and ubuntu 10.04 despite these
config
props:
# a well known image ubuntu 12.04 as listed in hpcloud console
(image id
is
"not found"):
whirr.image-id=8419
# id not found:
whirr.hardware-id=standard.small
# id not found:
whirr.hardware-id=101
# changing the minRam to 2048 did not force a small machine:
whirr.template=osFamily=UBUNTU,osVersionMatches=12.04,os64Bit=true,minRam=2048
I *was* able to start a small machine using the region and the
openstack
machine code like this:
whirr.hardware-id=az-1.region-a.geo-1/101
Next I need to find the exact form for whirr.image-id so I can use a
custom
image (perhaps region is needed in the specifier or a full URL).

Normally, I prepare a custom os image (based on a whirr cluster) to
speed
up provisioning. Will that work on HPCloud?

The problem is that 10.04 is literally hardcoded. Before the above

there's no way to change that without knowing IDs.

Just
whirr.hardware-min-ram=1024 or whatever, and it'll
automatically pick
an
Ubuntu 10.04 image for you.

Hi, Paul.
Here's easiest way
Apply latest patch here
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-593
Set
whirr.template=osFamily=UBUNTU,osVersionMatches=12.04,os64Bit=true,minRam=1024
Should be good. If works, ping the issue and I can help
commit it
tonight.

Because of WHIRR-593, I built Whirr from trunk.
My plan is to use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise, 64-bit.
whirr.provider=hpcloud-compute
How does one find the possible values for:
whirr.image-id // I assume numbers seen in HP web console work
here
whirr.hardware-id // use number from openstack or names like
standard.medium ?
whirr.location-id // what is proper form here?
and any other property settings I need to know about for
HPCloud?
Thanks,
