have they looked at using the payload for this? (next option is probably cloud-init in 3.3) Hello Itamar, We're not sure what you are referring to, when talking about payload. What is it? How would it help? Any document you can share? payload can be defined for a VM via the REST API to pass any information to the guest via a block device or iso attached to the guest. please look for 'payload' in: https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.2-Beta/html-single/Developer_Guide/index.html cloud-init (3.3) will allow to do this via run-once, and maybe via editing the cloud-init template (tbd) http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration greg - i assume hostname in the config disk already passes this per the example in http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration Daniele - please check if the cloud-init via run-once approach satisfies this request from the customer. (In reply to Itamar Heim from comment #4) > greg - i assume hostname in the config disk already passes this per the > example in http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration VM name is the default hostname when enabling cloud-init from the web-based UIs--either webadmin or user portal. For REST API, I supposeit could be scripted in 2 ways: either send the vm name as the hostname, or add a file attachment containing the vm name (similar to the payload that you mentioned in comment 1). |
