Portland Linux/Unix Group Meeting Announcement Who: Lance Albertson What: The Ganeti Virtualization Management System Where: PSU, 1930 SW 4th Ave. Room FAB 86-01 (Lower Level) When: Thursday, June 7th, 2012 at 7pm Why: The pursuit of awesome, open technologies.
See location H-10 on the PSU map at http://pdxLinux.org/campus_map.jpg Ganeti is a robust cluster virtualization management software tool. It’s built on top of existing virtualization technologies such as Xen and KVM and other Open Source software. Its integration with various technologies such as DRBD and LVM results in a cheaper High Availability infrastructure and linear scaling. This hands-on tutorial will cover a basic overview of Ganeti, the step-by-step install & setup of a single-node and multi-node Ganeti cluster, operating the cluster, and some best practices of Ganeti. Finally, deploying and using a web-based management tool called Ganeti Web Manager. If you want to participate on the hands-on portion of the talk, feel free to clone his vagrant-ganeti repo on github (https://github.com/ramereth/vagrant-ganeti) prior to the meeting. We'll try and have the box images available on USB drives at the meeting but its always great to have everything setup prior to the meeting and not saturate the WiFi.
