Re: running starcluster on openstack

Hi Rayson,

Thanks a lot for the information.
I have successfully downloaded the images, but I am not sure how to use them.
Do you think I can load them into OpenStack without any changes?

I am also trying to launch a VM from the image in KVM but not much luck.
Do you know how to fire up a VM from the image?
Is there a document you could probably point me to?

Regards,
Shunde Zhang

Given that openstack has an ec2-like interface, I wonder if I can use

See: http://www.cybera.ca/tech-radar/making-starcluster-work-with-openstack


Also you have put some images into ec2 for star cluster to fire up VMs.
Those images seem to have SGE pre-installed, don't they?

The AMIs have SGE loaded, and the starcluster command runs setup every
time you launch a cluster.


Can I download the images from somewhere so I can put them into our
openstack image repository?
