resource-vsphere-cloud

Profile to bootstrap the cloud-wrappers content pack

Manages VMware vSphere Instances via DRP Resource Brokers.

Initial release of the vSphere Resource Broker only provides support for empty VM creation and subsequent installation via standard PXE network scripted installs.

Future versions of the Resource Broker will support OVA machine creation and Cloning of existing Template Virtual Machines.

For the PXE path to work, the Cluster MUST HAVE the following Params set on the Cluster at creation time.

  • broker/set-pipeline: universal-application-discover
  • broker/set-workflow: universal-discover

Otherwise, the Virtual Machine will never be served the Sledgehammer BootEnv during the boot of the virtual machine.

These Params are set in this Profile; however they end up being overridden by the Params defined in the universal-application-broker-base definition.
