Currently I'm using Packer to build a VMWare template and then have configured the post-processor section of the JSON with multiple vsphere tasks, to copy the template to multiple remote datacenters once built, using OVFTOOL. The copying itself works just fine, but it runs serially ... and because the template I'm copying is large, it takes a very long time to finish the process as Packer is waiting for each OVFTOOL copy to complete before starting the next.
So my question is ... does Packer have the ability to start all of the OVFTOOL copies in parallel? I've been looking around the HashiCorp website, the Internet, and this Google group, but so far haven't found anything. And if not, what alternatives do I have to make this work?
