Chandu,

I'm sorry! I completely missed this email. I was curious about your setup and came here to look for my last exchange with you and found this email that I didn't answer. I'm sorry for that.

Thanks for the log screenshot. It clearly shows that the installation was not able to download the images that it needs from docker registries out there. This is a fairly common problem that we face, especially when we're on an office network where multiple people access the internet (and the Docker registries) with the same IP address. These registries might rate limit you<https://www.docker.com/increase-rate-limits/> and the Ansible task gets stuck like that.

We have a Task to work on a guide for the community<https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2005051> on how to avoid these problems by creating your own local Docker registries or a pull-through registry that's shared in an office network. The task is currently not being worked on but will be very soon.

Honestly, what I ended up doing was kicking off the installation late at night at the office network and coming back the next day. Also, using my home network I didn't have any problems with the rate limit since I'm the only one using the network for that. However, I did see the problem again when I tried to do multiple installations in a short period.

Let me know if this helps and what's the state of things for you since the last time we talked.

Regards,
Bruno.

"External email. Open with Caution"
Prashanthi,

here's an example of the final message of the script when the installation succeeds:

[cid:0d599ab0-8160-44f9-a37a-ebb66d74db59]

When it fails, in the metrics, you will be able to see in which stage it stopped, which helps in narrowing down what might be the problem you're having.

Regards,
Bruno.

Hello, Prashanthi.

> Bruno, Python script was still on when VM is up and login was success, script is not exited

What was the last output from the script that you were able to see? Did you let the script run until the end or did you interrupt it?

Logging in to the VM is not necessary before the script finishes and might even be a problem depending on what you do while the script is running. For future versions, we are planning to default to a headless installation where the VM never shows up to avoid confusing the user into thinking that the VM is ready to be used. And, of course, make this clear in the docs to-be-written about this installation method.

Thanks for taking the time to try these WIP scripts, by the way. The feedback you're providing is already being considered in our future work. If you want more synchronous help, I'm usually available on the #starlingx IRC channel from around 12 to 9 PM UTC on weekdays. I'm brunomuniz there.

Regards,
Bruno.
