======================= SAIO - Swift All In One ======================= --------------------------------------------- Instructions for setting up a development VM --------------------------------------------- This documents setting up a virtual machine for doing Swift development. The virtual machine will emulate running a four node Swift cluster. * Get the *Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx)* server image: - Ubuntu Server ISO: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ubuntu-10.04.1-server-amd64.iso (682 MB) - Ubuntu Live/Install: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/10.04/release/ubuntu-10.04-dvd-amd64.iso (4.1 GB) - Ubuntu Mirrors: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors * Create guest virtual machine from the Ubuntu image. Additional information about setting up a Swift development snapshot on other distributions is available on the wiki at http://wiki.openstack.org/SAIOInstructions. ----------------------------------------- Installing dependencies and the core code ----------------------------------------- * As root on guest (you'll have to log in as you, then `sudo su -`): #. `apt-get install python-software-properties` #. `add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/ppa` #. `apt-get update` #. `apt-get install curl gcc bzr memcached python-configobj python-coverage python-dev python-nose python-setuptools python-simplejson python-xattr sqlite3 xfsprogs python-webob python-eventlet python-greenlet python-pastedeploy` #. Install anything else you want, like screen, ssh, vim, etc. #. Next, choose either see :ref:`partition-section` or :ref:`loopback-section`. .. _partition-section: Using a partition for storage ============================= If you are going to use a separate partition for Swift data, be sure to add another device when creating the VM, and follow these instructions. #. `fdisk /dev/sdb` (set up a single partition) #. `mkfs.xfs -i size=1024 /dev/sdb1` #. Edit `/etc/fstab` and add `/dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 xfs noatime,nodiratime,nobarrier,logbufs=8 0 0` #. `mkdir /mnt/sdb1` #. `mount /mnt/sdb1` #. `mkdir /mnt/sdb1/1 /mnt/sdb1/2 /mnt/sdb1/3 /mnt/sdb1/4 /mnt/sdb1/test` #. `chown : /mnt/sdb1/*` #. `mkdir /srv` #. `for x in {1..4}; do ln -s /mnt/sdb1/$x /srv/$x; done` #. `mkdir -p /etc/swift/object-server /etc/swift/container-server /etc/swift/account-server /srv/1/node/sdb1 /srv/2/node/sdb2 /srv/3/node/sdb3 /srv/4/node/sdb4 /var/run/swift` #. `chown -R : /etc/swift /srv/[1-4]/ /var/run/swift` -- **Make sure to include the trailing slash after /srv/[1-4]/** #. Add to `/etc/rc.local` (before the `exit 0`):: mkdir /var/run/swift chown : /var/run/swift .. _loopback-section: Using a loopback device for storage =================================== If you want to use a loopback device instead of another partition, follow these instructions. #. `dd if=/dev/zero of=/srv/swift-disk bs=1024 count=0 seek=1000000` (modify seek to make a larger or smaller partition) #. `mkfs.xfs -i size=1024 /srv/swift-disk` #. Edit `/etc/fstab` and add `/srv/swift-disk /mnt/sdb1 xfs loop,noatime,nodiratime,nobarrier,logbufs=8 0 0` #. `mkdir /mnt/sdb1` #. `mount /mnt/sdb1` #. `mkdir /mnt/sdb1/1 /mnt/sdb1/2 /mnt/sdb1/3 /mnt/sdb1/4 /mnt/sdb1/test` #. `chown : /mnt/sdb1/*` #. `mkdir /srv` #. `for x in {1..4}; do ln -s /mnt/sdb1/$x /srv/$x; done` #. `mkdir -p /etc/swift/object-server /etc/swift/container-server /etc/swift/account-server /srv/1/node/sdb1 /srv/2/node/sdb2 /srv/3/node/sdb3 /srv/4/node/sdb4 /var/run/swift` #. `chown -R : /etc/swift /srv/[1-4]/ /var/run/swift` -- **Make sure to include the trailing slash after /srv/[1-4]/** #.

Everything is logged in /var/log/syslog, so that is a good first place to look for errors (most likely python tracebacks). #. Make sure all of the server processes are running. For the base functionality, the Proxy, Account, Container, Object and Auth servers should be running #. If one of the servers are not running, and no errors are logged to syslog, it may be useful to try to start the server manually, for example: `swift-object-server /etc/swift/object-server/1.conf` will start the object server. If there are problems not showing up in syslog, then you will likely see the traceback on startup.
