/* Skipping Checks */
= Overview =
The [http://www.stoney-cloud.org/ stoney cloud] builds upon various standard open source components and can be run on commodity hardware. The final MultiSingle-Node Setup installation consists of one node with the following componentssoftware-stack installed:* One [[Primary-Master-Node]] with an 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.* One [[Secondary-Master-Node]] with the Linux kernel based virtualization technology.* Two [[Storage-Node | Storage-Nodes]] configured as a replicated and distributed data storage service based on [http://www.gluster.org/ GlusterFS].The components communicate with each other over a standard Ethernet based IPv4 network.
== Prerequisites ==
== Limitations ==
During the installation of the [http://www.gentoo.org/ Gentoo Linux] operating system, the first two physical Ethernet Interfaces are automatically configured as a logical interface (bond0) and the four tagged VLANs are set up. If more than two physical Ethernet Interfaces are to be included in to the logical interface (bond0) or the physical Ethernet Interfaces have different bandwidths (for example 1 Gigabit/s and 10 Gigabit/s), the final logical interface (bond0) needs to be configured manually after the installation of the [http://www.gentoo.org/ Gentoo Linux] operating system.
Only the first two [http://www.gluster.org/ GlusterFS] [[Storage-Node | Storage-Nodes]] are set up automatically. More [[Storage-Node | Storage-Nodes]] need to be integrated manually.
= Installation =
Choose '''1) FOSS-Cloud Installer: default boot options'''

== Keymap Selection ==
 Set the desired keymap. The following example works for the German speaking part of Switzerland: '''46''' (de_CH)''' [[Image:stoney_cloud_single-node_02.png||600px]]
== Start the Installation ==
Start the actual installation by typing: '''yes'''

== Choose the Single-Node Installation ==
Choose the Single-Node Installation by typing: '''2'''

== Device Selection ==
You'll need to select a SCIS, SATA, PATA or virtual disk. The following installation in done in a virtualized environment, therefore we choose the virtual disk: '''vda'''

If you type yes, you'll be deleting all the existing data on the chosen disk: '''yes''' [[Image:stoney_cloud_single-node_06.png||600px]]
== Proceeding ... ==
You can ignore the message "Error: /dev/vda: unrecognised disk label" as this is normal for a first installation in a virtual disk.

== Network ==
Now we configure the network. In this example, we only have one network interface: '''eth0'''

== Hostname ==
Set the desired hostname (not the fully qualified domain name). We'll choose: '''kvm-0237'''

To skip checks, type '''no''' when asked:
Do you want to start the installation?
