Hello all and thank you in advance for your help.
I have been able to work out how to add vm via a call to the vms API. I am
passing in a template via the api call and that is working. I do not have a
network installed in the template. My use case for that was to hit “New vm”,
fill in the hostname and network and let cloud-init set the hostname. That way
I can create a new vm with just a few clicks.
What I can’t seem to figure out is how to define the network interface in the
add vm api call. It looks like I should have to add the network interface in
a second call after creation. If I add the interface in the
<initialization> section for cloud-init I seems to have a chicken and egg
problem. When I add the <initialization> section and the data for the ip
address, netmask, default gateway, I get;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<fault>
<detail>[Cannot add VM. Static IPv4 address is missing in cloud-init
configuration.]</detail>
<reason>Operation Failed</reason>
</fault>
That would seem to indicate to me that I need and interface before I can
configure it. That makes sense. But how do I get an interface before I create
the vm ?
What might I be missing?
The desired result is create a vm and set the hostname and ip info via the api
so that I get a fully formed vm connected to the network. That gets me to the
point of being able to download build scripts to install and start puppet.
