Bosh-lite on bare-metal

Bosh-lite on bare-metal with bosh-provisioner

This guide assumes you have already installed Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS (64-bit) or later on your box. And have correctly configured passwordless ssh access to the vcap user with passwordless sudo.

Getting Started - The Quick Way

1. Install preqrequisites:

./install-prereqs

2. Export the required environment variables:

export SERVER_IP=<ip of your box>
export SSH_KEY=<path to ssh key for the vcap user>

3. Ensure you can communicate to your server with vagrant:

vagrant up

4. Provision the box:

vagrant provision

If all goes well, you should have a bosh-lite instance running on bare metal in a matter of minutes!

Customizing your BOSH/Warden setup:

1. Install prerequisites:

./install-prereqs

2. Copy the example manifest to name of your choosing, and edit it to make your changes:

cp bare-metal.yml.example my-manifest.yml
vi my-manifest.yml

3. Export the required environment variables:

export SERVER_IP=<ip of your box>
export SSH_KEY=<path to ssh key for the vcap user>
export MANIFEST=my-manifest.yml

4. Ensure you can communicate to your server with vagrant:

vagrant up

5. Provision the box:

vagrant provision

In line with this, could anyone please advise, is there anything I would need to configure or setup to get this to work?

Please advise what I am missing?

Vagrant up failed "Instance did not reach running state"

I'm trying to get the vagrant up part to work, but found it failed. I've set the SERVER_IP and SSH_KEY.

==> default: [713.14s] Started setting up instance bosh/0 > Waiting
==> default: [1317.72s] Failed setting up instance bosh/0 > Waiting
==> default: [1317.72s]

==> default: [1317.72s] ------
The following SSH command responded with a non-zero exit status.
Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!

/opt/bosh-provisioner/assets/bosh-provisioner -configPath=/opt/bosh-provisioner/config.json 2>/tmp/provisioner.log

The error from the provisioner.log is strange because every request, response worked and then just that one line at the very end indicates there was some error:

Get "managed server is no reachable" error

I followed the provided instructions and received this output:

[vcap@svr-lxt bare-metal-bosh-lite]$ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'managed' provider...
==> default: Linking with managed server 192.168.1.16
==> default:  -- Server: 192.168.1.16
[vcap@svr-lxt bare-metal-bosh-lite]$ vagrant provision
==> default: The managed server is not reachable. Check if the `config.managed.server` is correct.
[vcap@svr-lxt bare-metal-bosh-lite]$

What am I missing? Will this work or Cent OS 7.3?
