OpenStack Swift : Getting Started From Zero

First, run Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) as server image, you can use SuSE SLE 11 64bit too, but that will make the situation difficult for the new users / developers. In the next step create guest VM from the Ubuntu image. You will use the CLI as root on guest VM. Type sudo su and it will ask for password. I like to change working directory to root by cd $root command and clear the screen with clear command. First install the python package :

Vim
1
apt-get install python-software-properties

You can manually edit the sources.list file or add from CLI :

Vim
1
add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/release

Run update and upgrade and do a soft reboot (optional).
apt-get install curl gcc git-core memcached python-coverage python-dev python-nose python-setuptools python-simplejson python-xattr sqlite3 xfsprogs python-eventlet python-greenlet python-pastedeploy python-netifaces python-pip

Now, you can simply use pip install EXAMPLE command for your need.

The next steps are partitioning, adding a loopback device, rsync setup which we will discuss on our next guide for OpenStack Swift along with video screen cast. We highly recommend to search within this website for detailed instruction to run Ubuntu in various ways.
