I was expecting that this is not normal.

Any ideas in what do I have to do to make it work? Are they related with the "virt-sysprep" command which is failing on my image??


Best,

Hi Georgios,

1. I havent seen that problem in my environment using pre-build cloud
images. But I havent build an image from scratch myself except using
the magic "build-openstack-debian-image" command in debian.

   But this is certainly not the expected behavior. A well-built
cloud image should create the exact number of NICs according to
nova/libvirts request.

2. Resizing the root filesystem is done using file system specific
tools like resize2fs and xfs_growfs. You can check the source code of
cloud-init at:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/view/head:/cloudinit/config/cc_resizefs.py

Are you building the image for studying or for production use?

YY Inc. is hiring openstack and python developers. Interested? Check

Two silly questions regarding the images created by cloud-init:

1) Is the following an expected behavior?
   Step1: Taking a snapshot of a working instance
   Step2: Launching a new instance from the snapshot
   Step3: The new instance is booting but the network fails since
it already has eth0 and a new eth1 is allocated to the new instance.

What do I have to do in order for this to work without any trouble?

2) Do you know where I can find some info regarding the way to make
the / partition dynamic based on the flavor??
I have built an instance on which the / partition is 20GB . Is
there a way to make it change according to the flavor? Obviously
this should apply to bigger / partitions. What I am trying to do is
to have an image which I can boot with either 20GB or bigger /
partition.

Best,

G.

Thx for your suggestion!

I am trying since yesterday to achieve this but unfortunately
the installer
always start in a text-based mode and cannot change the
partition scheme
from there :-(

Hi Georgios,

I dont know if this can be helpful for you or other people
here, but
I usually create my centos/ubuntu images with virt-inst from
kickstart
or preseed using a script.

Script and related kickstart is available at
https://github.com/gc3-uzh-ch/openstack-tools [2]
they are mainly for internal use, so you may need to modify the
kickstart (we always provides images with the gc3-user user so
we
need to modify the configuration of cloud-init.

We partition our disks with one single partition. The script
doesnt
yet take into account the extra swap partition though, we dont
have
swap in our flavors.
