Re: [Openstack] [heat][nova][cinder]Mount a CD-ROM ISO to an instance
Thank you both! Eugen, I thought of checking if we can use this iso as a block device by specifying the device type as cdom Pavlo, will try out to see how it works, thanks for the links Regards, Kanthi On Fri, Jun 10, 2016 at 1:45 PM, Pavlo Shchelokovskyy < pshchelokovs...@mirantis.com> wrote: > Hi, > > do you mean the configdrive?

Hi, do you mean the configdrive? It is iso9660 filesystem image attached to vm on boot by Nova and containing the bootstrap configuration for VM and is used by cloud-init [0] You can force creation of configdrive for a particular instance via Heat template too [1] [0] http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/cli_config_drive.html [1] http://docs.openstack.org/developer/heat/template_guide/openstack.html#OS::Nova::Server-prop-config_drive Cheers, Dr. Pavlo Shchelokovskyy Senior Software Engineer Mirantis Inc www.mirantis.com On Thu, Jun 9, 2016 at 11:20 AM, pnkk wrote: > Hi, > > Can you please suggest a way to mount a cdrom iso to a instance during > boot time along with the actual image. > > That iso has the bootstrap configuration needed for the VM. > > Regards, > Kanthi > > > > ___ > Mailing list: > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack > Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org > Unsubscribe : > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack > > ___ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
Re: [Openstack] [heat][nova][cinder]Mount a CD-ROM ISO to an instance
Hi, mount a cdrom iso to a instance during boot time along with the actual image. do you mean to mount an iso when creating an instance or when an existing instance is booting? If you have an existing instance you can attach a previously created volume (from that ISO) to your instance, and that volume stays attached even if you reboot your instance. I don't think you can attach an ISO during creation, I may be wrong though. Regards, Eugen Zitat von pnkk : Hi, Can you please suggest a way to mount a cdrom iso to a instance during boot time along with the actual image. That iso has the bootstrap configuration needed for the VM.
