[ovirt-users] Strategy to Mange Ovirt VMs Created from Templates

2019-12-23 Thread jeremy_tourville
I want to be able to manage VMs using Ansible. As part of the template creation process it says to seal the VM. Can someone tell me what sealing does to a Linux VM? I understand it removes some of things that make the VM unique but no real specifics. So, if I want to manage a VM created

Hello Jeremy, we did this kind of workflow: - create a standard base image, with all the required updates you want. We usually started from the previous template of the same RHEL release, but you can start from scratch every time if you want. - Install cloud-init that starts at boot and then,

Thank you for your reply Luca, In general your work flow is helpful and makes sense to me. I meant to say above- "As part of the template creation process ***the Ovirt docs*** say to seal the VM". So I think I understand that you need to use both processes (seal template + cloudinit) to

Sealing the VM is not something specific to oVirt, and is also valid for KVM. Actually sealing the VM is to run virt-sysprep against the VM/disk. You can check http://libguestfs.org/virt-sysprep.1.html and especially the --list-operations which can help you understand what ia being cleaned up.

If you can afford it I would definitely do raid. Being able to monitor and replace disks at the raid level is much easier than brick. With raid I’d do a gluster arbiter setup so your aren’t losing too much space. Keep an eye on libgfapi. It’s not default setting due to a few bugs but I’ve been
