[occi-wg] Send shell commands to new hosts started with OCCI

[Jamie Marshall]

Hello,

my 2 cents worth may be worth a read. 

Here in France in the CompatibleOne project we are faced with much the same issue.

Our aim is the provision of a fully automated brokering and provisioning platform for the satisfaction of complex and hetrogeneous cloud provisioning requests.  We have also identified this difficulty as bein one of the aspects for which we will need to find or provide a satisfactory solution for ALL cloud provider platforms. We have been working on this subject and have already a basic architectural model allowing us to perform automatic provisioning with configuration for open stack and open nebual platforms. We demonstrated this 19 days ago at the OW2 Conference at Orange Labs here in Paris.
Of course there is much more work to be done and we welcome ideas and thoughts on this very important subject.

Sincerely
Jamie Marshall

    Cheers and thanks for your answer.

    

    Well, It looks like a no so I'll use some other way to achieve my
    goal.

    

    Have a nice day

      2-cents: It's an interesting request to consider.  As part of
      cloud automation, being able to kick off a configuration script is
      important.  

      

      I think some sort of startup script or agent would be needed to be
      staged in the guest VM first - not sure how one would otherwise
      communicate with a new machine securely.  Then once the SSH keys
      are generated, that generic script could then invoke a
      configuration server to proceed with the next steps. 

      

      This reminds me that we need to start considering the PaaS
      specifications soon.  As part of PaaS, being able scale new
      machines up and configure them is important.

        Greetings,

        

        I was wondering if it was possible to send shell commands to new
        hosts started with OCCI. I would like to do launche some java
        -jar after the host has started, preferably without using a
        script on the host.

        

        I couldn't find anything anywhere about it (OCCI Core, OCCI HTTP
        Rendering, OCCI Infrastructure).

        

        Thank you, regards
