Hi,
I tried as you suggested, but floppy is not getting attached it seems.
below is the code
*_Steps followed:_*
I. Create windows VM
II. installed host agent
III. *To seal a Windows virtual machine with sysprep*
i assume this is a windows 7? make sure to start it with a floppy (say,
virtio-win.vfd) prior to sealing it, so it will have the floppy driver
(its not enabled by default in windows 7).
there may also have been some registy needed in windows 7 to enable
sysprep via floppy.
1. In the Windows virtual machine to be used as a template, open a
command line terminal and type *regedit*.
2. The *Registry Editor* window displays. On the left pane, expand
*HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE* → *SYSTEM* → *SETUP*.
3. On the main window, right click to add a new string value using
*New* → *String Value*. Right click on the string value file and
select *Modify*. When the *Edit String* dialog box displays, fill in
the provided text boxes:
* Value name: UnattendFile
* Value data: a:\sysprep.xml
4. Launch sysprep from C:\Windows\System32\sysprep\sysprep.exe
* Under *System Cleanup Action*, select *Enter System
Out-of-Box-Experience (OOBE)*.
* Tick the *Generalize* checkbox if you need to change the
computer's system identification number (SID).
* Under *Shutdown Options*, select *Shutdown*.
Click *OK*. The virtual machine will now go through the sealing process
and shut down automatically.

Can you guide me on sysprep with sample code & sysprep file?
just launch a windows VM, look at the generated sysprep file we pass
to the VM via the floppy disk.
then pass it as a payload as-is.
then try to change what you want.

Hi All,
I was doing google to see if i can set
Hostname,Password & IP
details
for Windows server from RHEV-M. I got to know that we
can create VM
Payload & send that to Windows VM (installed with
Cloud-init)
Refer this link

Cloud-init expects Meta-data & User-Data file to be
sent either via
Config Drive or via HTTP. I'm trying to achive this via
ConfigDrive
(created using VM Payload).
note you can also just pass the full sysprep file as a payload
yourself via the API, and set all these items in it.
But i'm wondering what should be the format of this two
files
(Meta-data
& User-data). Have any1 tried this? If yes, would
request to share
sample for both the files with setting Hostname,
Password & IP
details.
just launch a linux VM and check the file we create?
Java code:
org.ovirt.engine.sdk.____decorators.VM vm1 =
api.getVMs().get(vmName);
Payloads payloads = new Payloads();
Payload payload = new Payload();
payload.setType("cdrom");
Files payloadFiles = new Files();
File payloadFile = new File();
payloadFile.setName("meta-____data.txt");
payloadFile.setContent("____hostname:"+vmName);
payloadFiles.getFiles().add(____payloadFile);
payload.setFiles(payloadFiles)____;
vm1.setPayloads(payloads);
Action action = new Action();
vm1.start(action);
