Re: vSAN vsphere 7.0 with Cloudstack.

[Harikrishna Patnala]

Hello,

Yes, vSAN and other storage types as primary storage support is added in 4.15 
release itself. You can set up a vSAN storage in vCenter and add it as primary 
storage under "presetup" storage protocol type. "presetup" is the generic 
storage protocol type for primary storage using which we can add any type of 
storage VMFS5, VMFS6, vSAN and vVols.

Introduction. CloudStack vSphere integration has not kept up with the evolution 
of vSphere itself, and several functions can be performed natively by vSphere 
much more efficiently than by CloudStack. vSphere also has additional features 
which would be beneficial to the operators of vSphere based CloudStack clouds.

Subject: vSAN vsphere 7.0 with Cloudstack.

Hell All,

I am trying to setup vmware 7.0 with cloudstack 4.15.1 but I have a slight 
problem. All the host have local storage setup(the server was used for 
different purpose before). There is no shared storage for the hosts so, I am 
looking towards vSAN concept. Just wanted to know if I can proceed towards 
using it and integrating with Cloudstack 4.15.1.
I will  be very grateful for any other suggestion and solutions to my scenario.

Thank You.

 

UFW Firewall enabled SystemVMs offline

[Ben McGuire]

We have followed the ports that Cloudstack requires and opened them in our 
hosts however with UFW enabled the systemvms agent disconnects.

We allowed all traffic to and from the management host and opened these
 ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 22
$ ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 1798
$ ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 16509
$ ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 16514
$ ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 5900:6100
$ ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 49152:49216

What exactly is causing the systemvms to disconnect when UFW is enabled ?
The moment we disable it and reboot the systemvms the agents come back online
