Hi all, can anyone help me to configure the OpenStack builder in order to produce an image in the qcow2 format?
It seems that other people had this issue: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/packer-tool/Ve5oVENQJN0 https://github.com/fjammes/packer-openstack-example The pages linked above basically suggest to produce a raw image, convert it to qcow2 and then upload the new image to Glance. My requirement, though, is to *directly* produce a qcow2 image (no intermediate conversion and re-upload). So I searched and found this pull request: https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/pull/6702 It seems that it's possible to use qcow2 by setting use_blockstorage_volume to true and image_disk_format to qcow2. I tried with a configuration similar to this one: { "builders": [ { "type": "openstack", "identity_endpoint": "http://1.2.3.4:5/v3";, "tenant_name": "test", "domain_name": "default", "username": "testuser", "password": "12345678", "ssh_username": "ubuntu", "image_name": "testimage", "source_image": "fdc89ada-1625-46e3-b64c-bdd291dc45a6", "flavor": "someflavor", "networks": ["9159be52-70f9-49bf-a26f-6526da7bff4a"], "security_groups": ["cc5cd6e2-3785-46c5-974f-89e21e4bbd2d"], "insecure": "true", "use_blockstorage_volume": "true", "image_disk_format": "qcow2" } ] } Any help would be appreciated :) Thanks -- This mailing list is governed under the HashiCorp Community Guidelines - https://www.hashicorp.com/community-guidelines.html.
