TBDThe [http: PJU/DVO/www.stoney-cloud.org/ stoney cloud] builds upon various standard open source components and can be run on commodity hardware. The Demo-Node installation consists of one node with the following software-stack installed:* The Linux kernel based virtualization technology.* An OpenLDAP Directory Server for the storage of the stoney cloud user and service related data with the web based management [[VM-Manager]] interface and the Linux kernel based virtualization technology. == Prerequisites ==The following items and conditions are required to be able to install and configure a stoney cloud environment:* A dedicated server which fulfils the following requirements: ** 64-Bit Intel with VT-Technologie (AMD is not tested at the moment, but it should work).** 8 Gigabyte Memory (more is better).** 130 Gigabyte up to 2 Terabyte disks (for the first RAID-Set, the 2 Terabyte restriction applies).*** For the mass storage (where the virtual machines are stored) we recommend a second RAID-Set configured as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID_6#RAID_6 RAID6]-Set with battery backup.** One physical Ethernet Interfaces. == Limitations ==During the installation of the [http://www.gentoo.org/ Gentoo Linux] operating system, the first physical Ethernet Interface ist automatically configured with DHCP. This means, you need a working DHCP Server. The virtual machines running on the stoney cloud Demo-System are NATed. This means, you can not access the virtual machines from externally.
