I guess I'm a UEC tester. I'm trying to deploy a test cloud and I'm having trouble getting instances started. They start, shut down, and terminate. I haven't gotten one running yet after quite a few hours working on it.

My first attempt with a node had 64 bit hardware, but no VT (found this out afterward). My second node installation is a new Dell Poweredge T310. However, I still haven't had success starting instances.

I can't make much sense out of the error logs. For example: "Cluster cluster1 storage #2 doesn't exist, retrying in 10 seconds." appears in /var/log/eucalyptus/registration.log - I'm guessing this is my problem, but I don't know what it means or how to fix it.

Is there a forum or IRC where UEC testers and experts congregate?

thanks,

Matthew
