MaaS install 64 bit client nodes doesn't work

view full story
linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – I have installed a MaaS node that will act as the parent and I am trying to add additional nodes via the PXE boot. The nodes boot fine and get an image from the MaaS server but they only install the 32 bit version. They are 64bit machines and I would really like them to use the 64bit version of Ubuntu Precise. The MaaS server has the precise_x86_64 image according to the maas-import-isos and it is an option when its doing a network boot. However if I do the maas-precise-x86_64 the node doesn't register with the MaaS parent node. It seems like it just installs a clean version of Ubuntu 12.04 64 (HowTos)

Problem in 'juju bootstrap' 40 weeks 7 hours ago

I have added two nodes in my maas and they both are in ready state.

I'll give you some background first...

I installed ubuntu with maas using the instructions on maas.ubuntu.com. I have 2 network adaptors, one on my lan, and another on which I plan on using maas to manage.

I installed using the first ethernet for my lan. (Installing entirely from disk had issues for me, but this seemed to work perfectly).

Unable to commission nodes 40 weeks 7 hours ago

I have installed MAAS and powered on some nodes to let them declare themselves to the MAAS server (they now show up as "Declared" in the nodes list). When I try to "Accept and Commission", however, I get back a page saying "Internal Server Error".

Post Deploy MAAS cleanup 37 weeks 13 hours ago

I have a mostly working MAAS cluster.

I'm still learning juju, but while I'm doing that, I wanted to take this opportunity to do some clean-up tasks.

Here are my goals:

Configure ntp on the nodes. Set the video mode on the nodes. Set the timezone on the nodes.

Are these juju tasks? Or is this better attacked by mounting the disk image on the MAAS host, and doing the configuration there?

I'm having trouble installing OpenStack in Ubuntu 12.04, for various reasons:

The official Ubuntu website recommends Juju and MAAS. However, this is a single node I am trying to get OpenStack installed on, and MAAS requires "two or more nodes" according to the docs.

I'm experiencing MaaS using VirtualBox. I had the MaaS server installed fine based on the wiki. The VirtualBox VM has two network interfaces, eth0 for NAT, eth1 for Host Only.
