[13:14] <Cust0sLimen> hi
[13:14] <Cust0sLimen> I want to use rhel-guest-image-7.0-20140930.0.x86_64.qcow2 on libvirt directly
[13:15] <Cust0sLimen> so I found some info regarding cloudinit http://blog.oddbit.com/2015/03/10/booting-cloud-images-with-libvirt/
[13:15] <Cust0sLimen> it says you create a iso with some files in and then put it in vm cdrom
[13:15] <Cust0sLimen> what I want to now though is - is there some other way to do this except for ios ?
[13:15] <Cust0sLimen> what I want to now though is - is there some other way to do this except for iso ?
[13:15] <Cust0sLimen> can't I run some webserver or something ?
[13:16] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: well, there are many datasources - the question is what is available at a usual qemu/libvirt level
[13:16] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources.html
[13:17] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: the link you posted creats a config drive
[13:17] <Cust0sLimen> yeah
[13:17] <Cust0sLimen> so I basically want same but not a iso but rather like webserver or something
[13:19] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: in general there are e.g. http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/openstack.html
[13:19] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: also aws and google sources are network based
[13:19] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: yet - be aware
[13:19] <Cust0sLimen> hmm ok
[13:19] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: these cause all sort of issues (slow boot by probing all), potential security risks of people insering configs, ...
[13:20] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: therefore most of these have extra checks to only access them if in the right env
[13:20] <Cust0sLimen> but then I have to have openstack metadata service running ?
[13:20] <cpaelzer> Well you could also mimic it, but I'd expect more guards to those network services to appear which makes it even harder to use
[13:22] <cpaelzer> I can't find the right link at the moment, but we are working on guarding that more
[13:23] <Cust0sLimen> ok let me rather just do ios
[13:23] <Cust0sLimen> iso*
[13:23] <Cust0sLimen> config disk
[13:48] <Cust0sLimen> so where is the allowed values/schema for the meta-data and user-data files on config disk ?
[15:44] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: only see your question now
[15:44] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: you mean on-disk like the config-disk as iso?
[15:44] <cpaelzer> Cust0sLimen: or if you modify the target image?
[15:44] <Cust0sLimen> cpaelzer, no on config-disk ISO
[15:44] <cpaelzer> Most is really reachable from http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources.html
[15:44] <cpaelzer> let me check
[15:44] <Cust0sLimen> but actually nvm, the right way to do it is virt-customize I think
[15:45] <Cust0sLimen> I'm using that now
[15:45] <cpaelzer> ok
[15:45] <cpaelzer> smoser: if you read abcklog is there anything you might add?
[15:45] <Cust0sLimen> it can set root password and add keys which is fine
[15:45] <cpaelzer> I happen to miss the wider scope sometimes but smoser has it
