This is a tool for managing your Eucalyptus deployments

yum install -y python-devel gcc git python-setuptools libffi-devel openssl-devel libyaml-devel
git clone https://github.com/eucalyptus/calyptos
cd calyptos
python setup.py install

The cloud lifecycle is broken down into many phases:

The configuration is written in YAML. Examples can be found in the examples directory. For a full list of attributes that can be set look at the Eucalyptus Cookbook attributes. Edit the etc/environment.yml file to match your deployment topology and configuration.

In this stage we run validations against the configuration file to ensure that the deployment will succeed as we expect.

calyptos validate -e <your-environment-file>

This step ensures that our dependencies are installed on all servers and that we can SSH to all of them. It is nice to know that we are on good footing before we get going with the deployment.

calyptos prepare -p <root-ssh-password-for-deployment-systems>

Provisions the rest of the system or update the configuration of an existing system. If you change anything in your environment.yml, you can use this to push that change out to your cloud.

calyptos provision -p <root-ssh-password-for-deployment-systems>

Executes a command across a set of hosts. By default all hosts run the command but using the -r parameter you can run on only a particular set of hosts, categorized by role.

calyptos execute -p <root-ssh-password-for-deployment-systems> -e <your-environment-file> '<your-command-here>'

This step will grab all necessary information from a system in order to provide artifacts for use in debugging a problem. In addition, this step will do the following:

• Confirm/install sosreports and eucalyptus sosreports plugin on each node
• Run sosreports on each node
• Copy the sosreport back to the local client

    calyptos debug -p <root-ssh-password-for-deployment-systems>
