[one-users] Some basic questions after a firts OpenNebula 2.0 install

[jean-paul.pigache at bull.net]

Hi OpenNebula.

This is my first mail on this list. So it contains some basic questions we 
have after making a first install of OpenNebula 2.0.

First of all: the context:
We have installed OpenNebula 2.0, compiled from downloaded source files.
All the mandatory librairies are there but we have got some errors because 
OpenNebula requires a precise librairy version (ex:  libcrypto.so.6 when we have libcrypto.so.10 in Fedora14).
Anyway, we have succeeded to install a front end and a clusternode, both 
on Fedora12.
We had to do everything using command lines. The configuration of the Vms and the network must be done manually in text 
files. Is this the normal way ?
To get a graphical interface, do you suggest us to try Management Console from Sara ?

The creation of images (of OS) must be done through an external tool (like 
virt-manager). Is this correct ?
OpenNebula manages the Vms but not the OS images. Is this correct ?
To manage IP addresses in the VMs, we need to use the contextualization 
mecanism. Is this correct ?
If we want to interface with a Vmware cloud, we need to use the Wmware 
drivers from C12G labs.
If we want to interface with another OpenNebula Cloud, we need to use the 
Libcloud Driver or the Deltacloud Driver from cisa-research.org.

Thank you for any answer or confirmation for these basic questions.
