If a write up on this doesn't exist I'd like to volunteer to help document it 16:26:00 iben: we do 99% of the development on the free Hyper-V 16:26:23 and the actual openstack environment is the typical linux platform? 16:26:36 iben: yes 16:26:42 iben: we have a free installer he: http://www.cloudbase.it/installing-openstack-nova-compute-on-hyper-v/ 16:26:48 In Other words - and existing openstack or devstack users could test this 16:26:56 iben: yes 16:26:57 iben: with all the step by step documentation 16:27:03 okay - I will review 16:27:03 iben: you just point hyper-v at it 16:27:05 iben: and make sure you have a vhd 16:27:10 to deploy on hyper-v 16:27:22 iben: you can also tweak your scheduler to place vm's properly 16:27:52 ok - I would like more details on that too 16:28:07 alexpilotti: is that documented yet? 16:28:12 iben: we hare also ready mand VHDs for ubuntu 12.04, so contact me if you need a link 16:28:13 alexpilotti: the scheduler bits? 16:28:34 ok then 16:28:36 primeministerp: it's simply a glance property 16:28:41 alexpilotti: yes 16:28:45 alexpilotti: ok moving on 16:28:55 #topic ci infrastructure 16:28:55 primeministerp: iben here you go: http://www.cloudbase.it/filtering-glance-images-for-hyper-v/ 16:29:00 the main issue right now (hope to hear about this later) is the way to automate Windows VM provisioning including hostname and IP address assignment.
