Observation :
- You need to enable ping and ssh on your VMs for network access. This can be done with either the nova or euca2ools commands.
Steps to follow :
- Run these commands as root only if the credentials used to interact with nova-api are in /root/.bashrc.
- If the EC2 credentials in the .bashrc file are for an unprivileged user, you must run these commands as that user instead.
-
Enable ping and SSH with nova commands:
$ nova secgroup-add-rule default icmp -1 -1 0.0.0.0/0 $ nova secgroup-add-rule default tcp 22 22 0.0.0.0/0 -
Enable ping and SSH with euca2ools:
$ euca-authorize -P icmp -t -1:-1 -s 0.0.0.0/0 default $ euca-authorize -P tcp -p 22 -s 0.0.0.0/0 default - If you have run these commands and still cannot ping or SSH your instances, check the number of running dnsmasq processes, there should be two.
-
If not, kill the processes and restart the service with these commands: command:
# killall dnsmasq # service nova-network restart -
Enable RDP for the above things to work:
- Go to Access & Security and select Security Groups
-
In the Security Groups section select default group’s Manage Rules
-
In Manage rules add a new rule as follows and save it
