.. _quick-install-guide: Quick Installation Guide on Debian Wheezy ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is the Synnefo Quick Installation guide. It describes how to install the whole Synnefo stack on one (1) physical node, in less than 10 minutes. The installation uses the snf-deploy deployment tool and installs on a physical node that runs Debian Wheezy. After successful installation, you will have the following services running: * Identity Management (Astakos) * Object Storage Service (Pithos) * Compute Service (Cyclades) * Image Service (part of Cyclades) * Network Service (part of Cyclades) and a single unified Web UI to manage them all. Prerequisites ============= To install Synnefo the only thing you need is a Debian Wheezy Base System that has access to the public Internet. Installation of snf-deploy ========================== First of all we need to install the snf-deploy tool. To do so please add the following line in your ``/etc/apt/sources.list`` file: .. code-block:: console deb http://apt.dev.grnet.gr wheezy/ Then run: .. code-block:: console # curl https://dev.grnet.gr/files/apt-grnetdev.pub | apt-key add - # apt-get update # apt-get install snf-deploy Synnefo configuration & installation ==================================== Configuration ------------- Now that you have `snf-deploy` successfully installed on your system, you can continue with configuring and installing Synnefo. Configuration files for snf-deploy can be found in ``/etc/snf-deploy``, the defaults should work out of the box for most setups. If for some reason you encounter any problems, you should check there for network conflicts, etc. Installation ------------ To install the whole Synnefo stack run: .. code-block:: console # snf-deploy all --autoconf This might take a while depending on the physical host you are running on, since it will download everything that is necessary, install and configure the whole stack. If the following ends without errors, you have successfully installed Synnefo. Accessing the Synnefo installation ================================== Remote access ------------- If you want to access the Synnefo installation from a remote machine, please first set your nameservers accordingly by adding the following line as your first nameserver in ``/etc/resolv.conf``: .. code-block:: console nameserver The is the public IP of the machine that you deployed Synnefo on, and want to access. Then open a browser and point to: `https://synnefo.live/` Local access ------------ If you want to access the installation from the same machine it runs on, just open a browser and point to: `https://synnefo.live/` The default is set to ``synnefo.live``. A local BIND is already set up by `snf-deploy` to serve all FQDNs. Login ----- Once you see the Login screen, go ahead and login using: | username: user@synnefo.org | password: 12345 which is the default user. If you see the welcome screen, you have successfully installed Synnefo on a single node.
