Hi Alessandro, may I ask which tutorial / or which doc did you follow (Quick install guide, or full install gude...) Basic Zone or Advanced, CLoudStack version, KVM hypervisor flavour (ubuntu.centos, etc) So a bit more details please.
Later there are more questions like: - inside Infrastructure, when you click on HOSTs (there is 1 KVM host), does it say that Agent is Connected (i..e State is UP and Resource State is Connected) ? If so, this means we have Agents connected to Management Server, as it should be - For the sake of simplifying troubleshooting - make sure that you completely disabled/deactivate any firewall on both physical hosts - sometimes firewall can kick in and cause chaos... (you can fix it later) - Can you confirm that your KVM node can actually access Secondary Storage, the way you have defined it when creating Zone... If zone is Advanced Zone, then you had to define "KVM TRAFFIC LABEL" - for each Network Type (for Management network, for Guest Network, for Storage network if separate, etc) on the Physical Network - this one is the most common issues (omitted step) for beginners and causes issues...(we can troubleshoot this one, after you have confirmed all above steps as fine). How does your vlan/bridging setup looks like on KVM node ? When all this is OK, KVM node will be able to (automatically, no actions needed from your side) start 2 system VMs (Secondary Storage VM and Console Proxy VM). Then SSVM will download that mentioend Centos 5.5 template - but if SSVM is not running, it obviously can't download any template..... After they have been started fine (all green, State UP, etc, same as for KVM nodes), then we need to use a script inside these VMs, to check connectivity and health in general... and if all fine, you are done with your basic and working setup of CloudStack Builtin CentOS 5.5 is enough to spin a VM from, in order to verify that VM works fine (root / password is the login) - but you can't do that yet, because it hasn't been downloaded by SSVM to Secondary Storage. Later you can add more templates - here are templates from one community member: http://dl.openvm.eu/cloudstack/ Later you will want to configure and play with different Compute offerings, Data disk offerings, VPC offerings (if you deployed Advanced zone), Network offerings, System VM offerings (optional), etc...
