THIS DOCUMENT IS NOT MAINTAINED

You probably arrived here because you are looking for instructions on how to stand up your own instance of Cloud Foundry. Cloud Foundry is currently under rapid development. This document is out of date, and unfortunately we have not yet compiled its replacement. At the moment, the best place to get information is our discussion lists:



Contributor : Mahesh Patil

Background 

In github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap repository, we have published a VCAP installation scheme called dev_setup which uses Chef.  Please review the contents of the dev_setup directory.  You can use this scheme to do a single-node or multi-node VCAP install.  This document walks thru a single node and a multi node installation using the dev_setup scripts.

Disclaimer

These scripts are tested with and assume a pristine Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit install. Other Ubuntu releases, Linux distributions, and operating systems have not been verified with this installation method and are unlikely to work.

Common

1.  Please review the vcap_dev_setup README

2.  Clone VCAP repository

% git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap.git

3.  Tar up dev_setup directory

% cd vcap
% tar czvf dev_setup.tar.gz dev_setup

 4.  Copy over dev_setup.tar.gz file to the servers where you will be installing VCAP and components.

 5.  Uncompress and extract dev_setup.tar.gz file in the servers where the file was copied to.

% tar xzvf dev_setup.tar.gz

  6. Login as a user who has sudo privileges

  7.  Set http_proxy, https_proxy environment variables if the servers are behind proxy.  The installation scripts need http outbound access.

Scripts in dev_setup/bin directory

1.  vcap_dev_setup : Main script which will be invoked to do the VCAP and component installation

usage: ./vcap_dev_setup options
OPTIONS:
 -h Show this message
 -a Answer yes to all questions
 -p http proxy i.e. -p http://username:password@host:port/
 -c deployment config
 -d cloudfoundry home
 -r cloud foundry repo

2.  vcap_dev : Script to start/stop components

Usage: ./vcap_dev [--name deployment_name] [--dir cloudfoundry_home_dir] [start|stop|restart|tail|status]
 -n, --name deployment_name Name of the deployment
 -d, --dir cloud_foundry_home_dir Cloud foundry home directory

Deployment Specification

vcap_dev/deployments directory contains the deployment specifications.  This directory has a README as well, please review.

Single Node Deployment 

Assuming you are in a pristine Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit environment, you can do a single node deployment using either of the following two options.

Option 1

Install curl, get and execute the vcap_dev_setup script from github as below:

$ sudo apt-get install curl
$ bash < <(curl -s -k -B https://raw.github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap/master/dev_setup/bin/vcap_dev_setup)

Option 2

Assuming the steps are done as mentioned in the Common section.  Change directory into dev_setup/bin directory.

bin/vcap_dev_setup script without any options will install all components in the local server and is equivalent to a Single node deployment.  By default, cloudfoundry software will be installed in ~/cloudfoundry/ directory.  For different options supported by this script, please see the previous section.

Default Installation directory : $HOME/cloudfoundry

Please note that the vcap_dev_setup script will clone and update the Cloudfoundry open source VCAP git repo under the installation directory.  Also, you will see a $HOME/cloudfoundry/.deployments directory which will contain deployment configuration and software.

We will invoke bin/vcap_dev_setup script taking all the default options.  This will use the deployments/devbox.yml deployment specification, which will install all the components in the local server.

For example :

$ bin/vcap_dev_setup

  You will be asked for confirmation regarding chef-solo installation and sudo password.   After that the installation will continue to install the software and necessary components for a local vcap install.  At the end of the script execution, you should messages similar to below.

Allright, let us find out the status and start all the components.  Please note that now vcap software is installed under ~/cloudfoundry.  We will go there and start

Multi Node Deployment

We will walkthru the deployment as described in deployments/sample/multihost_mysql.  Please review the deployment configuration files in here

In this scheme, we will be installing VCAP components deployed in 4 nodes :

  1. dea  (10.20.143.187)
  2. mysql node 0 (10.20.143.188)
  3. mysql node 1 (10.20.143.189)
  4. rest of the components (10.20.143.190)

Copy over and Extract dev_setup scripts

First as specified in Common setup section, copy over the dev_setup.tar.gz to the individual nodes and extract them.

Install Rest of the Components (10.20.143.190)

There are no changes required for the deployment configuration deployments/sample/multihost_mysql/rest.yml

Known Issues

1.  During vcap_dev_setup, 'rack' install fails with ArgumentError.  If you rerun the vcap_dev_setup script, the script continues successfully with installing rack.

2,  After a local vcap_dev_setup (using devbox.yml), a bin/vcap_dev start shows Cloud Controlled as STOPPED, but a subsequent status shows it as RUNNING.  Also a LOG: snippet is piped to stdout with a 'Rails Error' message, you can safely ignore this.
