Description Nick Coghlan 2013-12-11 02:39:59 UTC
The current dynamic virtualisation support relies on oVirt Engine/RHEV-M as the external virtualisation provider.

Dynamic virtualisation should support OpenStack as well (or instead), initially relying on a bootstrap image that invokes the full Anaconda installer (thus allowing the existing kickstart based system initialisation to work normally).

Comment 2 Dan Callaghan 2014-05-19 06:11:33 UTC
The corresponding design proposal is here:

https://beaker-project.org/dev/proposals/dynamic-virtualization.html

although I see that it needs a bit of tweaking in light of my experiments.

Comment 4 Dan Callaghan 2014-05-25 22:08:47 UTC
The initial patch series is now merged:

http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/3085
http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/3089
http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/3091
http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/3092
http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/3097

It's still not perfect, but we are considering it "done enough" for this RFE. Further improvements/fixes will be filed as new bugs.

Comment 8 Dan Callaghan 2014-06-10 23:27:47 UTC
Beaker 0.17.0 has been released.
