Building the SDN development environment?

[Dave-B]

I´m trying to set up the SDN development environment on an Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS desktop. I have downloaded the HP_SDN_DeveloperKit.zip from http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/networking/solutions/technology/sdn/devcenter/index.aspx#tab=TAB2

The HP_SDN_DeveloperKit.zip only contains the REST, Admin and Controller Programming Guide pdfs.

Should there be more or is this correct?

The 5998-4920_HP_VAN_SDN_Controller_Programming_Guide.pdf describes how to setup an eclipse dev environment.

I have installed eclipse, maven and OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime.

I have unzipped the sdk-sample-app.zip and followed the instructions>

Page 8 of 5998-4920 lists:

$ bin/install-sdk

I cannot find this.

Page 114 of 5998-4920 lists:

~/dev/sdn-apps/sdk-sample-app/health-monitor/hm-root$ mvn eclipse:eclipse

This fails with

[WARNING] Missing POM for com.hp.util:hp-util-test:jar:6.23.0

It has been about 5 years since I wrote any java or used eclipse.

Am I missing some SDK files?

Or am I doing something fundamentally wrong?

Thanks in advance, Dave.

Hello Dave,

REST, Admin and Controller Programming Guide pdfs are enough to get a start .However if you really need other documents like Controller Release Notes, API doc ,License registration and activation then you can click on “start your free 60 day trial” on the same page http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/networking/solutions/technology/sdn/devcenter/index.aspx#tab=TAB2  and you can get Controller zip file(around 175 MB) which already contains Release Notes pdf, apidoc, SDN Controller and SDK.

install-sdk script is present in bin directory under SDK. Please check if you have downloaded successfully. Also you might need to check your  ~/.m2/settings.xml file to access the internet based maven repositories.

After running this script please re run the other command and let us know if you are facing any problem.

Thanks,

HP SDN Team

SDN Team,

Thanks for the reply. Been away, but I have now found the SDK environment files in HP_SDN_DeveloperKit.zip.

The bin/install-sdk command seems to work OK. I now have  ~/.m2 folder containing a repository, but there is no  ~/.m2/settings.xml file.

When I use the mvn eclipse:eclipse command I am still unable to resolve the hm-dao-model.

Hello Dave,

To get access to the internet based maven repositories , you may need to set proxy settings in settings.xml file.

You can take setting example from SDN Programming guide[page 217] , modify accordingly and put the same  in settings.xml file under m2 directory.

You can also take help from attached file.Please modify the settings.xml file[Attached ] accordingly and put this file under m2 directory.

Also please make sure you are following the steps as per the Programming guide. Each step should be successfully completed in order to get the successful build.If you are just trying to build the sample application ( “Device Health monitor” which is generated by running the command gen-sdn-app ),it should build successfully provided you successfully download required files and setup environment correctly.

Please let us know if you still face the issue.

Thanks,

Sorry for the delay in reponse. I had posted a reply about 2 weeks ago, but the reply did not post properly. I did not realise that your reply system times out if you start a reply, go to lunch, then post later.
 
My normal development machine is a 32 bit Ubutnu 12.04 desktop on a test network with no proxy.

I tried a fresh 64 bit Ubutnu 12.04 desktop install in VirtualBox on my Win7 desktop machine on the our main network with the setting.xml modified with the masin network proxy setttings:

I still seem to be missing components for the hm-dao-model.

Hello Dave,

As per the SDN Controller Programming guide pdf[page 8 ]  Maven 3.0.4  or newer is needed  while the command on your system shows Maven 2.2.1 as below-

mvn --version

Apache Maven 2.2.1

...

...

So please update your mavan to 3.0.4 or newer and try again.

Please do let us know  if you still face the problem.

Thanks

Thanks.

I downloaded the latest verion of maven from http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi and installed.

The maven command now works:

I have the latest versionof Maven.

C:\Users\satish.khandre\SDN\sdk-sample-app\health-monitor\hm-root>mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.2.3 (33f8c3e1027c3ddde99d3cdebad2656a31e8fdf4; 2014-08-12T02:28:10+05:30)

Satish,

Have you updated your pom.xml file in the -root folder of your SDN App folder structure?

You need to add the HP library depencies. They are mentioned by the warning when you tried ti build your app, e.g
