Yaniv - looks like a PM work is mostly needed here? You can upload images to base template on using image uploader tool. What is the missing part for you? Yaniv, I would expect to have ova images to be imported directly into RHEV, with and without cloud-init. Latest version. The current format, qcow2, is no way a substitute, I need to create a VM out of it, then delete all the information to make it a template, clone it into a template.... in VMWare same process is just one step. If the last version of cloud-init does not freeze the VM for a couple of minutes, that would be enough, if the download steps explain how to deinstall cloud-init daemon. More information: If I try to download RHEL 7 to install it in RHEV, I want to process to be as smooth as possible. Options right now for RHEL 7 are: PassSync Installer (32-bit) 2.92 MB RHEL 7.1 Supplementary DVD 263 MB PassSync Installer (64-bit) 3.24 MB KVM Guest Image 406 MB RHEL 7.1 Boot ISO 342 MB RHEL 7.1 Binary DVD 3.62 GB I am missing one option: - RHEL 7 Guest Image (OVA) for RHEV And the same for Atomic. It would take more than 3 hours of work per customer, and taking into account that sys-init is not working anymore, it is a must- What is the gap to allow us to do this? (In reply to Yaniv Dary from comment #6) > What is the gap to allow us to do this? IMHO Platform should just provide a cloud ready OVA and make it installable / upgradable by rpm as Fabian did for the engine appliance. I think this is a releng bug to be opened on RHEL. We have the RHEL guest images (qcow2) image which already includes cloud-init. If it is just about creating an OVA wrapper, then it should be a small gap from the build side. So to me the biggest question is, if Engine needs anything else besides cloud-init to import an image as a template. Yaniv what's the question? Fabian: if the image is available as OVA it can be uploaded into an export domain and then imported as template. Anything else needed? (In reply to Sandro Bonazzola from comment #9) > Fabian: if the image is available as OVA it can be uploaded into an export > domain and then imported as template. Anything else needed? It don't see any big development gaps. The main issue is to give it the propper QE coverage. |
