Re: [packer] grub config being overwritten when starting an image created with packer (Openstack/Packer/CentOS)

2019-09-04 Thread Rickard von Essen

So my question was if you are using PV (para-virtualized) or HVM (hardware
assisted virtualization).

(and you can run OpenStack with many different underlying virtualization
systems).

Re: [packer] Help - Timeout Waiting SSH virtualbox-ovf

Some kind of networking needs to work for Packer to be able to reach the VM

Re: [packer] Getting packer to be able to change an image from a local GCP bucket

2019-09-04 Thread Rickard von Essen

It's how GCE works.

(You can't do that with AWS for normal EBS backed AMI's either)

 Hello,

 I am working with packerpy and GCP to be able to load an OVA file to a
 personal bucket and then modify that image and create a new image from
 that, using the provisioners feature in a JSON file.

 I have the process to upload to a personal bucket working, but I can't
 figure out how to get packer to find my image in my personal bucket.
 Packer keeps searching the public area.  I didn't see where I can use a
 bucket.

 Anyone have any idea on how to get packet to modify the image from the
 personal bucket?

 On a separate note, I am able to use packer, in this same manner with
 AWS, just fine.

 Here is an example of my JSON for GCP:

 {
   "variables": {
 "disk_size": 150,
 "project_id": "proj-id",
 "result_image": "packer-example-{{timestamp}}",
 "source_image": "rhel-7-5-x86-64-minimal-ova",
 "ssh_password": "password",
 "ssh_timeout": "3m",
 "ssh_username": "user",
 "zone": "us-east-1"
   },
   "builders": [
 {
   "disk_size": "{{user `disk_size`}}",
   "image_name": "{{user `result_image`}}",
   "project_id": "{{user `project_id`}}",
   "source_image": "{{user `source_image`}}",
   "ssh_password": "{{user `ssh_password`}}",
   "ssh_username": "{{user `ssh_username`}}",
   "type": "googlecompute",
   "zone": "{{user `zone`}}"
 }
   ],
   "provisioners": [
 {
   "type": "file",
   "source": "./welcome.sh",
   "destination": "/root/",
   "direction": "upload"
 },
 {
   "type": "shell",
   "inline": [
 "chmod +x welcome.sh",
 "./welcome.sh"
   ]
 }
   ]
 }

 Here is the Python code that uses the above JSON code:
 import argparse
 import json
 from packerpy import PackerExecutable
 parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='This script modifies a
 GCP image in GCP.')
 parser.add_argument('-f', '--json_file', required=True, help='The JSON
 file that contains the changes to make to the image file.')
 args = parser.parse_args()
 json_file = args.json_file
 packer_bin = '/usr/local/bin/packer'
 p = PackerExecutable(packer_bin)
 (results, output, error) = p.build(json_file)
 if results == 0:
   print('Success!')
 else:
   print('Error:', error)
 print('\nOutput:', output)

 If you have any questions, please ask.

 Thank you very much!
 Wes Quinn

Re: [packer] DHCP Problem while generating an image on ESXi

Did you follow the instructions here?

https://packer.io/docs/builders/vmware-iso.html#building-on-a-remote-vsphere-hypervisor

With the excli command mentioned above you should get the IP of the VM if
guestiohack have been enabled.
