I want to test and learn how to deploy openstack using maas and juju. My test environment will be vmware workstation. Plan to test all over VM. I plan to separate onto 3 part of my progress. Currently I'm stuck here...
Part1: MAAS
a) I have create MAAS VM (2vcpu, 2gb memory, 20gb storage, eth0-bridge (192.168.0.0/24-home lan & internet), eth1-host-only (10.1.1.0/24-private network). Only my subnet eth0-bridge can access internet.
b) MAAS portal can be accessed and view. I have 2 fabric subnet of 192.168.0.0/24 and 10.1.1.0/24.
I can't enable DHCP on 192.168.0.0/24 as its already have its own external DHCP (home router) and I can only enable DHCP on private subnet 10.1.1.0/24.
c) I created another VM for pxe boot (2vcpu, 2gb memory, 20gb storage, eth0-host-only). When power on the VM, it can get the IP 10.1.1.x from MAAS but it will not complete and endup at 'initramfs prompt'. I think the VM cannot connected to internet to get the image for provisioning as 10.1.1.x is only private network.
For the sake of testing and I enable DHCP on 192.168.0.0/24 and boot again the VM and from the MAAS I can see the VM already seen 'machine available' (meaning that pxe boot require subnet 192.168.0.0/24 that have internet access) and if I reboot the VM, the pxe boot process will repeated.
I'm stuck here as the VM cannot complete the provisioning by the MAAS VM. If someone have done deploying maas over vmware workstation VM, please help me.
I think something todo with the DHCP subnet and image that cannot be retrieved by the VM so it cannot complete the installation. Appreciate help and advise to lead me the way. Please assist Thanks.
