Installing Eucalyptus from Nightly Packages

Important

Eucalyptus nightly packages are latest Eucalyptus builds. They should be considered unstable/"bleeding edge" software and should not be installed in production. In addition, upgrades from nightlies to released software are not supported.

To install Eucalyptus nightly builds on servers running CentOS 6 or RHEL 6:

On all servers, run the following commands:

yum install http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/
software/eucalyptus/nightly/3.2/centos/6/x86_64/eucalyptus-release-3.2.2.noarch.rpm

Enter y when prompted to install this package.

On all systems that will run either Eucalyptus or Euca2ools, run the following commands:
```
yum install http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/software/
euca2ools/nightly/2.1/centos/6/x86_64/euca2ools-release-2.1.noarch.rpm
```
Enter y when prompted to install this package.
Install the ELRepo repository on the machine that will run Walrus:
```
yum install http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/
software/eucalyptus/nightly/3.2/centos/6/x86_64/elrepo-release-6.noarch.rpm
```
Enter y when prompted to install this package.

Configure the EPEL package repository:

yum install http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/software/eucalyptus/nightly/3.2/centos/6/x86_64/epel-release-6.noarch.rpm

Enter y when prompted to install this package.

On all servers, enter:
```
yum update
```

Install Eucalyptus packages. The following example shows most components being installed all on the same server. You can use different servers for each component.

yum groupinstall eucalyptus-cloud-controller
yum install eucalyptus-cc eucalyptus-sc eucalyptus-walrus

High Availability

If you are deploying HA, you must install these packages on pairs of systems. For instance, “eucalyptus-cloud” is installed on the primary CLC and the secondary CLC.

On each planned NC server, install the NC package:

yum install eucalyptus-nc

Important

If you are using VMware, you can skip this step. Eucalyptus software is not installed on these machines. They are running VMware.

Your installation is complete.

You are now ready to Configure Eucalyptus.
