Hi,
I put together some scripts for starting a BHyve VM
when a system boots. When the system boots, the console
of the VM uses /dev/nmdm. It is possible to connect
to the console of the VM with: cu -l /dev/nmdm0B
It is a bit rough, but works nicely.
Does someone out there have better scripts for doing this?
Can some of the existing rc.d scripts for jails be reused for BHyve?
I did the following:
== put following entries in /etc/sysctl.conf ==
# BHyve needs this for tap interfaces
net.link.tap.user_open=1
net.link.tap.up_on_open=1
=================================================================
== put following in /etc/rc.conf ==
#####################################################
# Create tap devices, one tap interface per BHyve VM.
# Add the tap interfaces to bridge0
####################################################
cloned_interfaces="bridge0 tap0"
autobridge_interfaces="bridge0"
# change igb0 to whatever NIC you are using
autobridge_bridge0="tap* igb0"
== put following file in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bhyvevm ==

bhyvevm_start()
{

bhyvevm_stop()
