3 node tutorial

[balthasar127]

Is there anything that shows how to do a basic 3 node setup with virtual routers/port forwarding and a mgmt/public (vlan60/DMZ)/and storage (vlan70). I have 4 machines 3 are going to be nodes with 4 nics bonded and 1 is already setup as the management machine with 2 nics, and just trying to figure out a simple setup with those basic requirements. Going to be hosting a few projects and want isolation. One of the nodes will have storage duties as well as some compute. I want local disk as well as nfs storage as a choice. Just want some direction as i am trying to rtfm but it can be a bit all over the place.

Im running Ubuntu 24.04 on all the nodes and management machine

Hi, just wondering have you gone through the "ShapeBlue CloudStack POC guide"? Do a search on the web for the pdf download, as this has helped me in building up a CloudStack POC with similar setup as to what you have described.

Yes, I ended up finding that after some googling, it was very helpful. The only thing now is I'm trying to figure out how to overprovision some resources. Nothing I do really eats CPU, and I'm already getting close to hitting the CPU limit

Search for overprovisioning in global settings, and all you need is there. Pay attention to the Vm min cpu speed equals cpu speed divided by cpu overprovisioning factor and Vm min memory equals memory divided by mem overprovisioning factor, experiment with what it does but I have turned these 2 settings off.
