Bosh deployment is recommended to guide the Director

$ git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-deployment ~/workspace/bosh-deployment
$ mkdir -p ~/deployments/vbox
$ cd ~/deployments/vbox
$ bosh create-env ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/bosh.yml \
  --state ./state.json \
  -o ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/virtualbox/cpi.yml \
  -o ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/virtualbox/outbound-network.yml \
  -o ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/bosh-lite.yml \
  -o ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/bosh-lite-runc.yml \
  -o ~/workspace/bosh-deployment/jumpbox-user.yml \
  --vars-store ./creds.yml \
  -v director_name="bosh-lite" \
  -v internal_ip=192.168.50.6 \
  -v internal_gw=192.168.50.1 \
  -v internal_cidr=192.168.50.0/24 \
  -v outbound_network_name=NatNetwork

Configuration environment

$ bosh alias-env vbox -e 192.168.50.6 --ca-cert <(bosh int ./creds.yml --path /director_ssl/ca)
$ export BOSH_CLIENT=admin
$ export BOSH_CLIENT_SECRET=`bosh int ./creds.yml --path /admin_password`

check env

$ bosh -e vbox env
Using environment '192.168.50.6' as '?'

Name: ...
User: admin

Succeeded

add route

sudo route add -net 10.244.0.0/16 gw  192.168.50.6

Enter the deployment phase of software

Deployment resource requirements configuration

• No matter what application is deployed, cloud config is a prerequisite. When deploying an application or service, you can update the configuration update of virtual machine specifications in cloud config according to specific scenarios
• Once the cloud config is updated, the previous one will be considered expired, and the Director will apply these configurations the next time bosh deploy is performed
• The configuration of cloud config is generally defined in every application gitrepo. We can update it in the following way

$ bosh -e vbox update-cloud-config /PATH/TO/cloud-config.yml 

• For different types of CPI, There are different configuration properties

Upload the basic operating system image, Stemcell

• To deploy an application, you need to prepare the operating system to run in advance, such as window/centos/ubuntu, which is generally described in the deployed application document
• It is recommended to download the required Stemcell in advance. Network transmission may lead to failure. In addition, the version update is very fast. Pay attention to the version you use

This is a chestnut:

bosh -e vbox upload-stemcell https://bosh.io/d/stemcells/bosh-warden-boshlite-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent?v=3468.17 \
  --sha1 1dad6d85d6e132810439daba7ca05694cec208ab
