There was a note in INSTALLATION file that if you are using VMWare, you should set state to "virtualmachine" and if left state to "available" website brings error (red next near state) that virtual machine can only be added in "maintenance" state.

There is more, NewSID tool is retired and no more supported. Link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897418.aspx in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Management+Node+Installation is no more valid. Is it possible to run the whole system in standalone environment? As I understand you must have two interfaces (eth0, eth1), public and private? Is it possible for testing purpose run everything on single interface or use loop-back interface, sub-interfaces? I was trying to follow the articles, but after getting VCL running and VMWare Server installed there seems to be very little documentation how to make everything work. > >> Maybe someone could via IM help me out to set VCL testing environment? >> >> Thanks in advance, >> David >> > > Josh > - -- > - ------------------------------- > Josh Thompson > Systems Programmer > Advanced Computing | VCL Developer > North Carolina State University > > josh_thomp...@ncsu.edu > 919-515-5323 > > my GPG/PGP key can be found at pgp.mit.edu > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) > > iEYEARECAAYFAkwOcAcACgkQV/LQcNdtPQMlDgCfUc+/xBYlIg24YWe5/SxbBuve > neYAn1IYD2VraWN675D6yVyqgOOmem8s > =xoKj > -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
