Hi All, I'm using puppet enterprise and am getting a feel for the vmware provisioning. I've been able to provision vms by using:
puppet node_vmware create NameOfMyTemplate That sort of works, but I basically have an identical copy of the original vm i created a template from. Same mac address, hostname, etc. in vSphere, you can create a vm from a template and give it a guest customization file which will set the hostname, autogenerate the mac address as well as other things. I'd like to do this from puppet but there doesn't appear to be an option to apply a customization file. If that's not possible, maybe another approach is possible. Basically i want to be able to autoprovision virtual machines. With just creating from a clone, i can't even get the vm on the network so it's basically unreachable to apply any puppet scripts that would allow me to manage configurations.
