The default cm.tar.gz is in a public bucket (https://s3.amazonaws.com/cloudman). I'm not sure whether saving persistent data would lead to a new cm.tar.gz package in your own bucket. You could create your own bucket and put the cm.tar.gz it there. Then I think you can set in your userdata where cm.tar.gz is downloaded from. I'm not sure, but it is defined in the boot script which is also downloaded from the bucket on instance-boot. http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/CloudMan/UserData is down currently though. cheers, jorrit On 05/31/2012 10:39 AM, Zeeshan Ali Shah wrote:

Hej Zeeshan

Rebooting leads to upstart running /opt/cloudman/pkg/ec2autorun.py. This downloads a boot script, which downloads a cloudman package (cm.tar.gz), unpacks it and starts cloudman from there. This will mean a new /mnt/cm/universe.wsgi will be in place.

When cloudman starts, it attaches EBS volumes to /mnt/galaxyTools and other mount points from snapshots. The snapshots will include /mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini.

Restarting the node will thus eradicate changes. You will have to use the persist changes-functionality to create a file persistent_data.yaml in an S3 bucket and saved snapshots. AFAIK, it saves when you terminate the session in cloudman. When instantiating a new cluster with the *same name* (important) as the old one, it will pick the persistent data from the bucket and mount your saved snapshots.

good luck, jorrit

I tried changing both files /mnt/galaxyTools/galaxy-central/universe_wsgi.ini

and

/mnt/cm/universe_wsgi.ini.cloud

but after reboot of headnode the changes are gone .

any hint ?

Zeeshan, AFAIK the only settings you can set regarding this are in universe_wsgi.ini through the directives:

# Allow unregistered users to create new accounts (otherwise, they will have to # be created by an admin). allow_user_creation = True

# Email administrators when a new user account is created # You also need to have smtp_server set for this to work. new_user_email_admin = False

I have not seen a moderation system in place, but maybe you can use PDC's Plone forms for this moderation ?

Hope that helps ! Roman
