Chapter 8. Steps to Provisioning Your Cloud Infrastructure

This process will require approximately 5 GB of free space on the local file system and up to 30
minutes each time it runs.
• For XenServer:
# /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt -m /
mnt/secondary -u http://download.cloud.com/templates/4.2/systemvmtemplate-2013-07-12-
master-xen.vhd.bz2 -h xenserver -s <optional-management-server-secret-key> -F
• For vSphere:
# /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt -m /
mnt/secondary -u http://download.cloud.com/templates/4.2/systemvmtemplate-4.2-vh7.ova -
h vmware -s <optional-management-server-secret-key> -F
• For KVM:
# /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt -m /
mnt/secondary -u http://download.cloud.com/templates/4.2/systemvmtemplate-2013-06-12-
master-kvm.qcow2.bz2 -h kvm -s <optional-management-server-secret-key> -F
2. If you are using a separate NFS server, perform this step. If you are using the Management
Server as the NFS server, you MUST NOT perform this step.
When the script has finished, unmount secondary storage and remove the created directory.
# umount /mnt/secondary
# rmdir /mnt/secondary
3. Repeat these steps for each secondary storage server.
8.3.3. Steps to Add a New Zone
When you add a new zone, you will be prompted to configure the zone’s physical network and add the
first pod, cluster, host, primary storage, and secondary storage.
1. Be sure you have first performed the steps to seed the system VM template.
2. Log in to the CloudPlatform UI as the root administrator. See Section 6.2, “Log In to the UI”.
3. In the left navigation, choose Infrastructure.
4. On Zones, click View More.
5. Click Add Zone. The zone creation wizard will appear.
6. Choose one of the following network types:
• Basic. For AWS-style networking. Provides a single network where each VM instance is
assigned an IP directly from the network. Guest isolation can be provided through layer-3
means such as security groups (IP address source filtering).
• Advanced. For more sophisticated network topologies. This network model provides the most
flexibility in defining guest networks and providing custom network offerings such as firewall,
VPN, or load balancer support.
