Julia Kreger edd5b67afc Switch to simple-init for network configuration
Bifrost defining and attempting to bake in configuration files
into configuration drives to allow initial configuration of
connectivity is a crazy idea.

Since the Openstack-infra folks have glean and simple-init, we
will utilize their tooling to provide greater flexibility across
operating systems.

Additionally, the ability to write out a simple debian style
interfaces config file has been retained, however off by default
as it is necessary for cirros testing.  In addition to this, the
ability for inventory based data to override the contents of the
network_info.json file.

bifrost-create-dib-image

This role uses diskimage-builder to create a bootable disk image.

Requirements

This role requires:

  • Ansible 1.9

Role Variables

The dib_env_vars are settings for the diskimage-builder environment variables which allow settings to be passed to elements that are being utilized to build a disk image. More information on diskimage-builder can be found at http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/diskimage-builder/. Additionally, an extra_dib_elements setting exists which is a space separated list of elements to incorporate into the image.

dib_env_vars: DIB_CLOUD_INIT_DATASOURCES: "ConfigDrive" ELEMENTS_PATH: "/opt/stack/diskimage-builder/elements" extra_dib_elements: ""

http_boot_folder, deploy_image_filename, and deploy_image all control the final destination of the built image.

http_boot_folder: /httpboot deploy_image_filename: "deployment_image.qcow2" deploy_image: "{{http_boot_folder}}/{{deploy_image_filename}}"

dib_os_element controls which OS will be used to build the image.

dib_os_element: "ubuntu"

Dependencies

dib-utils must be installed from pip for the image creation to work.
