Step #01: Check your server version and ip.

[root@cloud ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release && ip r

Add all hosts name and ip address on your server hosts file. like below.

[root@cloud ~]# vi /etc/hosts

10.66.10.36 acs-nfs.technologyrss.local         acs-nfs

For save press Esc then type :wq then press Enter.

Step #02: Check ping status and disable firewall.

[root@cloud ~]# hostname --fqdn
[root@cloud ~]# ping cloud.technologyrss.local
[root@cloud ~]# ping cloudstack.apache.org
[root@cloud ~]# systemctl stop firewalld
[root@cloud ~]# systemctl disable firewalld

Disable selinux status

[root@cloud ~]# vi /etc/selinux/config

Then reboot your server using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# reboot

Step #03: Download latest epel release and update your server.

[root@cloud ~]# yum install -y epel-release
[root@cloud ~]# yum update
[root@cloud ~]# yum -y install wget chrony

Add Apache Cloud Stack repo. open this file via any editor.

[root@cloud ~]# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/cloudstack.repo

Add below all text into cloudstack.repo file.

[cloudstack]
name=cloudstack
baseurl=http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/centos/$releasever/4.16/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Step #04: Install mysql 8.0 on Apache Cloud Stack server 4.16

[root@cloud ~]# yum localinstall https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-el7-1.noarch.rpm
[root@cloud ~]# vi  /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community.repo

Add below line into mysql 8.0 community section

gpgkey=https://repo.mysql.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql-2022

Then run mysql installation command as like below.

[root@cloud ~]# yum -y install mysql-server
[root@cloud ~]# systemctl start mysqld
[root@cloud ~]# systemctl enable mysqld

Find mysql root user temporary password using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.log

[root@cloud ~]# mysql -u root -p

Reset mysql root password using below command

mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'P@ssw0rd@123'; //mysql 8 reset password command
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
\q

Step #05: Install mysql connector and Apache Cloud Stack service.

[root@cloud ~]# yum -y install mysql-connector-python
[root@cloud ~]# yum -y install cloudstack-management
[root@cloud ~]# alternatives –config java

Then create cloud database and user using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# cloudstack-setup-databases cloud:Passw0rd@123@localhost --deploy-as=root:P@ssw0rd@123

Output as like below:

Mysql user name:cloud                                                           [ OK ]

Then run below command for check all status is ok.

[root@cloud ~]# cloudstack-setup-management

Step #06: Add iptables required port into Apache Cloud Stack server.

[root@cloud ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables

Add below all lines into iptables file.

-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 8080 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 8250 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 8443 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 9090 -j ACCEPT

iptables service restart using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# service iptables restart

Check ACS log using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# tail -f /var/log/cloudstack/management/management-server.log

Step #07: Add your local domain name into idmapd.conf

[root@cloud ~]# vi /etc/idmapd.conf

Add below line as your domain name

Domain = technologyrss.local

Restart some service from below command.

[root@cloud ~]# service rpcbind restart
[root@cloud ~]# service nfs-utils restart
[root@cloud ~]# systemctl enable nfs-utils
[root@cloud ~]# chkconfig rpcbind on
[root@cloud ~]# rpcinfo -p

Step #08: Download systemvm template into Apache Cloud Stack Server.

Create one folder for mound your storage share for secondary storage.

[root@cloud ~]# mkdir -p /mnt/secondary
[root@cloud ~]# mount -t nfs 10.66.10.36:/mnt/secondary /mnt/secondary

Then run below command for download systemvm template.

[root@cloud ~]# /usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/storage/secondary/cloud-install-sys-tmplt -m /mnt/secondary -u http://download.cloudstack.org/systemvm/4.16/systemvmtemplate-4.16.0-kvm.qcow2.bz2 -h kvm -F

When download and installation done then remove created directory.

[root@cloud ~]# umount /mnt/secondary
[root@cloud ~]# rm -rf /mnt/secondary

Note: If you use Apache Cloud Stack management server as storage server so don’t remove this directory.

Default login details:

URL  : http://10.66.10.16:8080/client/#/user/login?redirect=%2F
User name : admin
Password  : password

Step #09: For private cloud computing Global configuration.

system.vm.use.local.storage  [ set false to ->  true
ca.plugin.root.auth.strictness  [ set true to ->  false
secstorage.allowed.internal.sites [set value = >  10.66.10.15  (local server ip using apache web server for download iso, http://10.66.10.15/centos.iso)]

Note : Please restart your management server(s) for your new settings to take effect.

Then restart Apache Cloud Stack management service using below command.

[root@cloud ~]# /bin/systemctl stop cloudstack-management.service
[root@cloud ~]# /bin/systemctl start cloudstack-management.service
[root@cloud ~]# tail -f /var/log/cloudstack/management/management-server.log

Time zone setup

[root@cloud ~]# timedatectl
[root@cloud ~]# ls -l /etc/localtime
[root@cloud ~]# timedatectl set-timezone Asia/Dhaka
[root@cloud ~]# timedatectl

Any error first check server log file and find what is issue.

[root@cloud ~]# tail -f /var/log/cloudstack/management/management-server.log
