Betreff: Installing the cosmos platform

Hi Thomas,
I am charged with setting up the FIWARE cosmos platform inside GameGenetics. My first goal is to have a reproducible installation. To achieve this, I am trying to follow the instructions as outlined in the WIKI page at http://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/BigData_Analysis_-_Installation_and_Administration_Guide
I have had a lot of trouble so far, mainly due to unclear dependencies on the following parts:

• CentOS
• libvirt
• openvz
• openvz container image

The provided puppet automation seems to manage the installation only in parts, and it does change fundamental security and networking related settings on the involved machines (firewalling, name resolution, ssh keys).
In search of help, I found the following repository on github: https://github.com/telefonicaid/fiware-cosmos-platform
Is this the official repository?

My current status is:

• I have not managed to install the exact versions of the openvz binaries. This seems to be simply because Centos now has newer versions
• I do not know where I can find the correct libvirt binaries (and I don't know if that is relevant either)
• I do not have access to the documented openvz template with support for libvirt (centos-6-cosmos.HDP.2.0.6-20140123-x86_64.tar.gz)
  I have created a vagrant environment based off the wiki (I didn't know the git repository at first) and tried to automate some of the steps using ansible, which in turn calls the masterless puppet scripts. I feel like I am drowning in error messages and I am wondering if there is any way I could find some help and/or additional external expertise?
  I am perfectly willing to share my setup via git, and/or doing a more hands-on session together.

Thank you in advance,
kind regards,
paul kremer
