Hi Andy,
Ran into more issues: But I realized that I am missing quite a lot.
I will try to write this down here as I understand, can you please help me get
this right.
Assuming using ESXi VMhost: And ESX provisioning I will work through these steps
Step 0: Basic Setup WebCode, Database, Management;
Step 1: Create a VM(for instance Windows XP with cygwin installed and
configured) with a the naming convention: "esx3-<anything you want>-v#"
Step 2. Create following Directory structure on the Image Store NFS server:
[any mount point/VCL ???] <- Does this have to be VCL only?
/inuse <- Not sure what to put in here
/golden
/esx3-<anything you want>-v#
esx3-<anything you want>-v#.vmdk
esx3-<anything you want>-v#-flat.vmdk
...
Step 3: Mount the NFS Image Store on to every VMhost; Name the mount as VCL.
But then when I see the actual mount point from the ESXi console, it shows up
as /vmfs/volumes/15a5e041-86bf33de Not sure if we have to force mount the mount
point with the appropriate name?
Step 4: Enable SSH password less logins to all VMhosts;
Step5: Follow the instructions of esx.README or esxthin.README in
/usr/local/vcl/lib/VCL/Module/Provisioning/ to setup dhcp and database record
for vmprofile appropriately.
Step6: Add a Single Computer using the portal. This computer added must be your
first VMguest computer. This is because if we add a VMhost as the first
computer, then it will not allows us to convert its state to VMhost inuse; it
complains that this computer has a reservation pending. I could be wrong, but
that's what I noticed. So instead I chose to add a VMguest computer details and
then added the VMhost computer as the next computer.
Step7: Insert the reservation entries into the database to capture the Image,
as described in the "Create Base Image" section.
Can you please let me know if the above step and details look okay.
Thank you,
Amit
