Getting started
The aim of this chapter is to show a quick manual to create a basic cloud infrastructure composed of 1/2 machines deploying an easy application. In the basic configuration you can use your own computer (Where the server is installed) with virtualbox.
This chapter is oriented to expose easy steps to follow:
- The basic installation contains the following information on the database to access to the abicloud:
- Sys Admin (Complete access to all functionalities) --> admin - password:xabiquo
- Cloud Standard user (can only createVirtual Applications) --> user - password:xabiquo
- An enterprise called abiquo.
- A datacenter called myDatacenter with a virtualFactory on it (in the same machine).
- A physical rack and machine called myMachine with localhost network interface and VirtualBox pre-configurated.
- Hypervisor Support.
- A repository called myRepository. This repository is located on /opt/vm_repository in the same server machine.
- One Remote repository (abispace) located on amazon in order to download pre-configurated images ready to be used.
Login into application (admin/xabiquo)
Enter into infraestructure management and show that you have a physical Machine with the network and hypervisor information correctly typed.
Access to Appliance Library and download a preconfigurated image from the remote repository. The image will be appear on the library
Enter into Virtual Data Center section and create a new Virtual DataCenter on the desired physicalDatacenter and with your desired virtualization technology
