Hyper-V power control script based on WS-MAN none

Description Ladislav Jozsa 2012-12-06 10:35:55 UTC 
As we are going to officially support Hyper-V from RHEL6.4 we need to have support in Beaker at least for powering up and powering down virtual guests. I had an idea how to do that via virsh but it is lacking support of hyperv in RHEL6 running on lab controllers.

I have filed another RFE on libvirt (bz#884430) but it seems we have very little chances to have it included in RHEL6 in foreseeable future.
Comment 3 Ladislav Jozsa 2012-12-10 16:15:13 UTC 
I did some research and found out that it should be possible to control Hyper-V guests via openwsman. The situation is complicated by bug in openwsman-python (bz #824277). So only option how to achieve it (since I haven't heard from legal concerning powershell ssh server) would be through wsmancli. However this will take some time to get it working.
Comment 4 Ladislav Jozsa 2012-12-11 21:25:06 UTC 
Good news, the research is over. I have been successfully able to start up and shutdown virtual guest, I will shortly provide standalone fence script.
Comment 5 Ladislav Jozsa 2012-12-12 20:48:17 UTC 
Even more good news. The hyper-v power script is in place in Beaker and I can happily announce that it works. :-)

Stefanie, thanks for your support while making this happen.
Comment 6 Dan Callaghan 2012-12-12 23:13:23 UTC 
Great to hear that this is running in production. I am re-opening this bug since we would like to ship this script with Beaker for the benefit of other sites.

Verify:
Could find hyper-v script on beaker-lab.
[root@lab-devel-03 ~]# rpm -qa | grep beaker |xargs rpm -ql | grep hyper-v
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/bkr/labcontroller/power-scripts/hyper-v
