That is expected. With KVM, QEMU provides a built-in dhcp server.
Sure. I need to set up a DHCP server.
This
allows the guest OS's DHCP client and QEMU to cooperate to get the
network configuration that is found in the zone configuration. This
does not exist for bhyve. Instead, we are shifting over to using
cloud-init in all of our linux images.
Will there be any "compatibility mode" in order to make bhyve behave
as a plug-in-replacement of qemu-kvm?
You can find a version of
cloud-init that should work with centos 7 at
[...]
To install:
I cannot install software in already deployed VMs.
2. Is there a migration path from TYPE=KVM to TYPE=BHYV?
There is not a supported conversion procedure, but it can usually be
done.
What I say below (and above) is largely from memory and a
smattering of notes generated as we were working on official images.
I modified the
brand attribute in /etc/zones/...xml file of an a earlier installed
instance (image uuid 6aac0370-56b8-11e7-a29b-df1de8b42795 =
centos-6
20170621) and startet the VM. It comes up, network is up, I can ssh
into the VM. But
- there is no output on vmadm console
You will need to update /etc/default/grub, adding this about the first
title line:
serial --unit=0 --speed 115220
terminal --timeout=2 serial console
[...]
Instead of changing of VMs (I can't do that anyway) I would prefer
a "compatibility mode": Can bhyve be started such that the serial
console
is configured as before?
Kind Regards,
Stefan
