Can't seem to find any info on this, my company bought the enterprise version of Cloud Foundry v1.2.  Can I use Iron Foundry with the commercial version of CF?

Yes, you can. I've personally installed it on a Pivotal CF instance. You just have to follow the install instructions in the https://github.com/ironfoundry/if_release README.md file. If you have any questions, we'll try to help!

I actually did stand up a Server 2012 box (not sure if that's supported, that's what I had up at the moment) to run the if_release and I ran into an issue.  The .\build.ps1 got pretty far and threw some warnings and error seen below.  Any idea what this could be?

I found a Server 2008 R2 instance and installed go, and git and VS and ran the build.ps1 and got the following.  Looks different, but same failed result.  Am I missing something?

We require some libraries that are only in Windows 2012 server, so 2008 won't work.

Are you reusing the box that you built ironfoundry on to deploy onto? Like the warning said, that sometimes has unexpected results, because we're less in control of the environment on that machine.

The 2012 attempt was on a brand new 2012 R2 VM build.  I cloned the if_release and then from an elevated PS prompt ran the build.ps1 in the root of the if_release directory that was created.  That's when I got that error.  This is my very first attempt at anything Iron Foundry so I apologize in advance :)  I can't even get the build.ps1 to work.

Certainly not your fault, Charlie. I'm happy to work with you to figure it out, though. i've skyped with a couple of people and did screen sharing to figure out what the issues were before, and i'm happy to help you like that as well.

Someone is looking into the issue right now, and I'll let you know what we find out.

Charlie,

This may be a fragile assumption in the unit test that is looking for a local Administrator user on the box.  Is it possible that user doesn't exist on your VM?
You could work around this by temporarily adding the user or running the build as a non-elevated user which should still build fine but skip a set of tests that it can only run as an admin.

HTH,

Bob

That worked.  Our standard build here renames the local Administrator to something else, so perhaps that was it.  I will go through the code again to verify.  Running as non-elevated worked and the tests simply failed, no big deal.  Looking forward to moving on with this, thanks guys!

Did you have to use bosh to deploy to PCF?  We can do the same, however, our changes will be overwritten the next time we try and use the Ops manager with PCF.  Is that your understanding as well?

I've never used OpsManager, but I thought it was a UI over bosh to help you to create and manage your deployment. 

In the UI, I assume it has a place for you to define the stacks that your deployment will support. If you add windows2012 there, I'd be pretty certain that it should be persistent.

There is not a place to define custom stacks in the PCF ops manager UI.  So it seems that if you intend to use opsmanager with PCF, you probably cannot use IronFoundry as your config will be overwritten.

I just checked through their documentation, and I can’t find anywhere to do it either. Saying that you can’t use ironfoundry with Pivotal CF may be a bit of a strong statement, but it is true that your stack configuration may be overwritten. The ability to have custom stacks in Ops Manager seems to be a missing features as of right now.

Thanks for looking at their documentation.  I also confirmed with our Pivotal SE.  They state that opsmanager is all or nothing.  You use it for all PCF configs, or you should not use it at all.  You should not use bosh to update your PCF config.
