Bug Description
After UEC installation on a system with a separate physical NIC that attaches to the private network that the NCs (node controllers) are on, the user must change the registration of the SC (storage controller) to use the private interface/IP. This can be done from the web interface under Configuration, Clusters, Storage Controllers. This can also be done from the command line using euca_conf --deregester-sc public IP, followed by a euca_conf register-sc <name> private IP. Be sure to change both the IP address and the name of the interface. Also, any volumes created before this change will need to be removed using euca-delete-volume because they will not work and will simply take up space on your system.
I think this is more a question of documentation. At this point by default the system is installed with everything registered to the public IP address. You *need* to edit /etc/eucalyptus /eucalyptus- ipaddr. conf when you have a network topology more complex than a single network.
