[Crowbar] Has anyone successfully installed openstack by crowbar with Rob's iso?

[Salman Malik]

I have faced the same issue of forever pending status. I was also using VirtualBox for testing it, but I finally gave up on OpenStack deployment with crowbar and have moved on to devstack.

Subject: [Crowbar] Has anyone successfully installed openstack by crowbar	with Rob's iso?

I tried several times and failed at one place or another. Here is my experienced problem for the isos from http://crowbar.zehicle.com/
1. When I tried to use "Crowbar with OpenStack Essex based Ubuntu on 12.04" on my vmware VMs, I could not install Crowbar admin node ---after the iso is installed, the Crowbar Admin node hang with "fd0 read error"

2. So, I decided to use "Crowbar OpenStack Diablo++ (Ubuntu 10.10)", and I made a progress well this time --successfully installed Crowbar cluster with the following nodes in ready status.
     -- Admin     -- node1     -- node2
     -- node3     -- node4     -- node5
     -- node6And all services are up and happy: 
Crowbar UI on http://192.168.124.10:3000.
Chef UI on http://192.168.124.10:4040.
Nagios on http://192.168.124.10/nagios3.
Ganglia on http://192.168.124.10/ganglia.

Now, I follow the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r0Dh-r3XZg, 
1) seemed to have successfully applied a glance barclamp without changing any configuration -- actually, I am saying I succeeded simply because I saw that node became 'ready' again. To make this question clear, here I attach the raw config (I am not sure if it's correct or not, so I copy and paste it)

{  "working_directory": "/var/lib/glance",
  "default_store": "file",  "swift_store_user": "glance_user",  "swift_store_key": "glance_key",  "swift_store_container": "glance",
  "api": {    "bind_port": 9292,    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/api.log",    "verbose": true,    "bind_open_address": false,
    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-api.conf",    "debug": false  },  "scrubber": {    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/scrubber.log",
    "verbose": true,    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-scrubber.conf",    "debug": false  }, "image_cache_datadir": "/var/lib/glance/image-cache",
  "image_cache_stall_timeout": 86400,  "notifier_strategy": "noop",  "images": [    "http://<ADMINWEB>/files/ami/ubuntu-11.04-server-cloudimg-amd64.tar.gz"
  ],  "reaper": {    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/reaper.log",    "verbose": true,    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-reaper.conf",
    "debug": false  },  "registry": {    "bind_port": 9191,    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/registry.log",    "verbose": true,
    "bind_open_address": false,    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-registry.conf",    "debug": false  },  "swift_store_auth_address": "127.0.0.1:8080/v1.0",
  "pid_directory": "/var/run/glance",  "sql_idle_timeout": 3600,  "keystone_instance": "",  "database": "sqlite",
  "prefetcher": {    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/prefetcher.log",    "verbose": true,    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-prefetcher.conf",
    "debug": false  },  "use_syslog": false,  "swift_store_create_container_on_put": false,  "sqlite_connection": "sqlite:////var/lib/glance/glance.sqlite",
  "enable_caching": false,  "image_cache_grace_period": 3600,  "mysql_instance": "",  "pruner": {    "log_file": "/var/log/glance/pruner.log",
    "verbose": true,    "config_file": "/etc/glance/glance-pruner.conf",    "debug": false  },  "filesystem_store_datadir": "/var/lib/glance/images",
  "use_keystone": false}
2) Now, I tried to apply nova barclamp, using one vm as nova-multiple-controller, and two vms as nova-multiple-compute, and I was stuck at this step -- the nodes are in pending status forever. To make this question clear, here I attach the raw config (I guess the configuration messed up, though I did not change anything from Rob's default in his ISO)

{  "libvirt_type": "qemu",  "glance_instance": "proposal",  "verbose": true,  "network": {
    "num_networks": 1,    "allow_same_net_traffic": true,    "tenant_vlans": false,    "ha_enabled": false,    "dhcp_enabled": true,
    "network_size": 256  },  "rabbit": {    "password": "secure_password",    "user": "nova",    "vhost": "/nova"
  },  "keystone_instance": "",  "db": {    "database": "nova",    "mysql_instance": "",
    "password": "7rxmss472k69",    "user": "nova"  },  "user": "nova"}
Can someone help me to diagnose the problem so that I can make some progress?
