!!! OpenShift

After a failed attempt to [run a local cloudfoundry instance with bosh-lite|https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-lite] , because my laptop only has 4 GB memory, I started to check out running OpenShift on my own box.\\
This can be done by running OpenShift origin as a VirtualBox guest.

I also want to try and get the WebSphere Liberty Profile cartridge working.

!! Resources

* [OpenShift Origin Virtual Machine Deployment Guide|http://www.openshift.org/documentation/oo_deployment_guide_vm.html]
* [WebSphere Liberty Profile cartridge|https://github.com/WASdev/cloud.openshift.cartridge.wlp]
* [OpenShift Console|https://10.0.0.171/console]


!! Install VirtualBox and setup the openshift VM.

First install VirtualBox and then install the prebuilt openshift origin as described in the [OpenShift Origin Virtual Machine Deployment Guide|http://www.openshift.org/documentation/oo_deployment_guide_vm.html]. Make sure to set the first network interface to bridging (instead of adding a second interface as described in the doc).\\
The web console is available at [https://10.0.0.171/console], there you can upload your public SSH key, which you need when git-cloning your app.



!! Set up client tools

The next thing is installing the client tool , rhc. This can be done with {{gem install rhc}}. You do have to setup ruby:  {{sudo apt-get install ruby ruby-gems}} .
