VirtualBox VM Install
=====================

Prerequisites:
- VirtualBox installed
- Ubuntu ISO image downloaded: ubuntu-14.04.1-server-amd64.iso
-- for 64bit architecture AMD/Intel processors
- Thingworx packages downloaded

Create new VM in VirtualBox, select ISO and use these (or other) settings:
Host thing, User Thing
Credentials: thing/thing
No LVM 64 GB
Standard installation, answer Yes to questions

Select packets to install: openssh-server (nothing else)

Reconfigure the network in VirtualBox settings:
- In VirtualBox main Preferences/Network, add a ‘named’ Host-Only network if not yet existing
- In the new VM Settings/Network, set Adapter 1 as Host-Only and select the newly created ‘named’ Host-only network.
Network Variants:
1: When connected to a wireless network, set Adapter 2 to bridge mode
2: When not connected to wireless, set Adapter 2 to NAT mode (to avoid timeouts)
Reboot VMs after a network change

sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces
# Change to following (suggestion):
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address         192.168.56.10
        netmask         255.255.255.0
        network         192.168.56.0
        broadcast       192.168.56.255

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

Execute in VirtualBox window for the VM (on Ubuntu):
# To find out the status and IP addresses of the eth0 and eth1 adapters
ip addr

# On Apple terminal (change IP address based on ip addr output)
ssh -l thing 192.168.56.10

# The following is optional if you want shared folders with the host:
# Mount VBoxLinuxAdditions.iso via VirtualBox menu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dkms gcc
sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom

cd /media/cdrom
sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

sudo apt-get update

# Define Shared Folder in VirtualBox VM settings (named xxxxx)
# https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#sharedfolders

sudo mkdir /mnt/xxxxx


Amazon EC2 Install
==================

Amazon zone US-West 2 (Oregon)

Choose Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise HVM EBS-SSD boot ami-ef5e24df

# Create/Associate Security Group
Open ports SSH, HTTP, HTTPS, 8080, SOCKS5

# Associate elastic IP
xx.xx.xx.xx

ssh -i .ssh/key.pem ubuntu@xx.xx.xx.xx

# The following EBS volume setup is not necessary initially:
# Associate new EBS volumes /dev/sdg, /dev/sdh

# Format new EBS volumes
sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdg
sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdh

sudo vim /etc/fstab
# Add lines
#/dev/xvdm /mnt/ThingworxStorage ext4 noatime 0 0
#/dev/xvdn /mnt/ThingworxBackupStorage ext4 noatime 0 0

sudo mkdir /mnt/ThingworxStorage
sudo mkdir /mnt/ThingworxBackupStorage

sudo mount /dev/xvdg /mnt/ThingworxStorage
sudo mount /dev/xvdh /mnt/ThingworxBackupStorage
