TYPO error :( while registering kernel image and ramdisk image.  just re-registered it and its working fine..:)



How to get rid of this?

[root@eucanode kvm-kernel]# euca-run-instances emi-21C335F8 -k suresh.priv
RunInstancesType: Failed to lookup kernel image information eki-8A553D65--ramdisk because of: Failed to lookup image: eki-8A553D65--ramdisk because of example: [KernelImageInfo manifestLocation=null signature=null checksum=null checksumType=null bundleSizeBytes=null imageName=null description=null architecture=null imagePublic=null platform=null imageType=kernel permissions=[] productCodes=[] deviceMappings=[] imageSizeBytes=null fullName=null ownerUserId=null ownerUserName=null ownerAccountNumber=null ownerAccountName=null uniqueName=null ownerFullNameCached=null state=null lastState=null stateChangeStack=null displayName=eki-8A553D65--RAMDISK id=null version=null creationTimestamp=null lastUpdateTimestamp=null naturalId=null]
Yippeee.... Trouble shooted source from https://engage.eucalyptus.com/customer/portal/questions/342904-euca-describe-availability-zones-verbose-availabilityzone

Solution

If Free/Max value is 0000/0000 for all then
a) CC not able to communicate to NC, Just test with ping <ip of node>
b) Time-value difference between CC and NC – correct with ntp
c) Password less login to NC is lost – redo ssh-copy-id
d) Already registered Ips or Keys of either CC or NC have changed
e) If none works, then regenerate the credentials using
sudo euca_conf --get-credentials <newname>.zip
unzip it and source eucarc
Transfer the zip file to NC and source eucarc there too.

[root@eucahost .euca]# euca-describe-availability-zones verbose

All the values of FREE/MAX are 0000/0000.....Trying to troubleshoot.... :(

Eucalyptus Systems has launched version 3.2 

of its private and hybrid cloud computing software, which is compatible with Amazon Web Services (AWS). For full story http://talkincloud.com/hybrid-cloud-computing/eucalyptus-32-enhanced-private-cloud-management
Connectivity between components failed.... it was just because the firewall was enabled :) took 2 hours to get rid of it...
Follow the Project's Page to get the detail explanation of building a private cloud using Eucalyptus ..
