It's not sysprep its payload (which can be used by sysprep but not must). Payload will let you add files to the VM in the simplest way via the command line:
$ curl -X PUT -H "Accept: application/xml" -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -u USER@DOMAIN:PASSWORD -d "<vm><payloads> <payload type='cdrom'> <file name='MYFILE.txt'> <content>SOME CONTENT</content> </file> </payload> </payloads> </vm>" http://HOST:PORT/api/vms/VMID (You need to replace all upper case words in this command with the relevant values) We are sending the following xml: <vm> <payloads> <payload type='cdrom'> <file name='MYFILE.txt'> <content> SOME CONTENT </content> </file> </payload> </payloads> </vm> The hooks that under vdsm/vdsm_hooks are not part of vdsm as you can read here: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=vdsm.git;a=blob_plain;f=vdsm_hooks/README;hb=HEAD Shahar Havivi. > > > > > At 2013-09-11 15:06:31,"Shahar Havivi" <shah...@redhat.com> wrote: > >On 11.09.13 01:50, Andrew Cathrow wrote: > >> Could sysprep be used? > >Yes, > >If you may consider using the VM Payload feature that is letting you "inject" > >files from a CD-ROM or Floppy disk. > >You can read about it here: > >http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VMPayload > > > >> > >> ----- Original Message ----- > >> > >> > From: "bigclouds" <bigclo...@163.com> > >> > To: "Shahar Havivi" <shah...@redhat.com> > >> > Cc: vdsm-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org > >> > Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2013 10:45:04 PM > >> > Subject: Re: [vdsm] question about injectfile hook > >> > >> > hi,Shahar Havivi: > >> > yes, i am working on modifying windows-hostname before_vm_start. > >> > i will make out a workaround to handle qcow2 format. > >> > im my case i need to add a new hook. > >> > >> > At 2013-09-10 22:32:48,"Shahar Havivi" <shah...@redhat.com> wrote: > >> > >On 10.09.13 22:02, bigclouds wrote: > >> > >> hi, shaharh: > >> > >> recently i work on injecting file into guestvm, i find a hook called > >> > >> injectfile in vdsm. > >> > >> i have a confusion about why injectfile hook takes qcow2 format as a > >> > >> special one which can not be handled? > >> > >> could you tell me your reason? > >> > >> > >> > >> as i know libguestfs certainly can be aware of qcow2 and all its > >> > >> feature > >> > >> like backing_file etc. > >> > >> it is a little hard to inject files into a image which has backing > >> > >> files(maybe backing chain) especially for images of block type with > >> > >> thin-providing. like a vm in pool. > >> > >> i am now writing code to inject files into a vm in pool. > >> > >> please tell me your ideas. and my questoin. > >> > >It should work with qcow2, when this hook was written we had some issues > >> > > that > >> > >we limit the format to raw. > >> > >did you try to modify the hook script?
