Creating an openstack stemcell and release

[Bob G]

I have Micro Bosh running on openstack and I'm trying to create a stemcell for openstack. Is there any documentation for creating a stemcell for openstack? Actually any documentation of how to create a stemcell would be useful. I'm also want to create a release/job, is there any documentation for what is specified in the release manifest for openstack? 

   thanks

Bob,

to build an OpenStack stemcell, clone the bosh[1] repo and then run:

cd ~/bosh/agent
export UBUNTU_ISO=/home/martin/ubuntu-10.04.4-server-amd64.iso <--
this isn't needed, but speed things up
rake stemcell2:basic[openstack]

There is nothing special you need to do to create a job/package for
openstack - the format is IaaS neutral. The only IaaS specific bits
are in the deployment manifest - take a look at the
bosh-sample-release[2] which has a deployment manifest for AWS (which
is very similar to OpenStack).

cheers,

if you have succesfully created one please share for all openstack users because there isn't much documentation yet

The only thing I have working so far is a redis-server running in a vm. I created the manifest by using bosh-gen and removed the specific aws stuff. When I get something more complicated running, I will post the results.
