Add the support for rhel. Change the hostname and delete the HWADDR for rhel.

Hi, I'm trying to run virt-sysprep against a disk in Ceph RBD storage but I appear to be unable to do so. The commands (bold) and outputs I've had are: On Ceph node: *virt-sysprep -a rbd://localhost/libvirt-pool/ubuntu-12-04-beanstalk001* libguestfs: new guestfs handle 0x113b060 rbd://localhost/libvirt-pool/ubuntu-12-04-beanstalk001: No such file or directory libguestfs: trace: close

V1->V2: add the documentation. V2->V3: change the split sign from ":" to "@" for IPv6. Add the the ipconfig for vir-prep. Usage like below: [root at Allen ~]# virt-sysprep --ipconfig="eth0:192.168.1.2,255.255.255.0,192.168.1.1" --enable=ipconfig -d clone-6u1 OR [root at Allen ~]# virt-sysprep -d clone-6u1 Signed-off-by: Wanlong Gao <gaowanlong at

Hi Rich: I just send a patch to request for your comments, then will do further work about this. things like this: [root at Allen ~]# virt-sysprep --ipconfig="eth0:192.168.1.2,255.255.255.0,192.168.1.1" --enable=ipconfig -d clone-6u1 OR [root at Allen ~]# virt-sysprep -d clone-6u1 Please comments.

Hi there, I was wondering if you could help me with a problem I'm having with virt-sysprep. It's a recurrent problem running virt-sysprep: Examining the guest ... Fatal error: exception Guestfs.Error("guestfs_launch failed. See http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#debugging-libguestfs and/or run 'libguestfs-test-tool'.") So I ran virt-sysprep and

Hi Rich, I tried to implement the logging feature, but I can't though compiling with this patch now, could you please give me some comments?

Hello, I'm having a problem when trying to use virt-sysprep against vms that have rbd disk images. When I run virt-sysprep I get the following error: >> root@kitt:~/libguestfs-1.22.4# virt-sysprep -d server-clone-test --firstboot firstboot.sh >> Examining the guest ... >> Fatal error: exception Guestfs.Error("rbd: image name must begin with a '/'") My

Hi, I would like to make it impossible for users to change the contents of the authorized_keys-file. I just found out about the sshd_config setting: AuthorizedKeysFile /etc/ssh/authorized_keys/%u But even in that case that file has to be owned by the user, unless I set ``StrictModes no'' which would allow other nastyness. I would like to request that that file could also be owned by

18:07 < _ng> What is the proper way to break mult lines when using virt-sysprep --write option, with --commands-from-file? (I don't mean escaping, but actually writing new lines to the file) You can use \ as a continuation character, as it mentions in the manual. Using virt-builder (just because it's a bit easier to demonstrate, but

I'm setting up a system to run LXC containers with ZFS on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04). I intend to set up a base image which I'd like to clone to create other containers from. virt-sysprep and virt-customize seem ideal for the task: I obviously could mount and work with the rootfs from each container directly, but the libguestfs tools have a bunch of pre-existing recipes that would surely be much

Hello Rich, Interesting. Thanks for the explanation. When you specify an rbd on the command line for virt-sysprep, do you expect the path to include the monitor address? e.g.: >> virt-sysprep -a rbd://host-name/pool-name/device-name If I understand correctly, libvirt is able to understand the ceph configuration, so when I create a device with qemu-img I only specify the protocol and

sysprep/sysprep_operation_cron_spool.ml claims to remove at jobs, but those are not stored in /var/spool/cron/ on my system. Is the description wrong, or do other distros store the spool data in the cron dir? For me it looks like this (000110156d537 is currently executed): root at probook:~ # find /var/spool/at* -ls 67540 1 drwx------ 2 at at 1024 Sep 19 18:55

Hi Rich, folks, I wont to start doing the windows guest support for virt-sysprep, Any thoughts? What do you think should be prepared on a new cloned windows guest? Thanks, Wanlong Gao

A common problem that people have with virt-builder and virt-sysprep is which guests that use SELinux, like Fedora and RHEL. In both cases we touch /.autorelabel in the guest, which means the guest has to reboot once during its first boot. Recap: SELinux file labels -------------------------- SELinux requires that files have labels. Access to a file is controlled by the label on that file.

Hi list, suppose I have an immutable (ie: due to a read-only snapshot) backing file. After creating an overlay file with "qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/path/to/immutable/file.img current.qcow2", libvirt refuse to start the virtual machine and exits with an error stating "Could not open backing file /path/to/immutable/file.img: Permission denied". From my

Add a short paragraph about SELinux, mostly to point to the documentation about it provided in the documentation of virt-builder. --- customize/virt-customize.pod | 8 ++++++++ sysprep/virt-sysprep.pod | 8 ++++++++ 2 files changed, 16 insertions(+) diff --git a/customize/virt-customize.pod b/customize/virt-customize.pod index a666be7..8dbdfef 100644 --- a/customize/virt-customize.pod +++
