I have just installed opennebula through the testing repo in order to test how well integrates with gluster fs. So here are some remarks regarding the documentation and installation process.

1. After installing the opennebula-node-kvm rpm the directory /var/lib/one/datastores is not created, thus there is a little mismatch with [2] where it takes for granted (under "Configure NFS") that this directory exists

2. On [2] the "Configure SSH passwordless login" fails at the scp step due to the fact that no pub keys exist on the remote server. I think the documentation should mention the need for creation of a .ssh directory and manual copy of authorized_keys with appropriate permissions. It should also mention that due to the limitation of SElinux it should either be disabled or configured adequately to allow ssh logins when the home dir is under /var/lib

3. On [2] under the section "A Basic Run" and "Starting OpenNebula's services" there is some mismatch between shell prompts and commands (ex.

# sudo su - oneadmin

should be

# su - oneadmin


and

    $ service opennebula start
    $ service opennebula-sunstone start
    $ service opennebula-occi start


should be:

    $ sudo service opennebula start
    $ sudo service opennebula-sunstone start
    $ sudo service opennebula-occi start

or

    # service opennebula start
    # service opennebula-sunstone start
    # service opennebula-occi start


4. I am not sure but I think the first time you start the services you should start opennebula-occi befora opennebula-sunstone or else you get an error similar to "[UserPoolInfo] User couldn't be authenticated, aborting call."

5. By default sunstone binds to 127.0.0.1. I think this is not desired as I suppose the vast majority of installations require remote access to sunstone

Dear all,

OpenNebula is in its way to be included in the official CentOS repos. The packages are already in the 'testing' repo, and we need some feedback to move them to the official repos.

To make it more fun for everybody we will send an OpenNebula T-Shirt and some stickers to the 10 best feedbacks we receive by next monday!
