Portable OpenStack Cloud Initialization Service =============================================== The main goal of this project is to provide guest cloud initialization for Windows and other operating systems. The architecture of the project is highly flexible and allows extensions for additional clouds and plugins. There's no limitation in the type of supported Hypervisor. This service can be used on instances running on Hyper-V, KVM, Xen, ESXi, etc Documentation, support and contacts: http://www.cloudbase.it Binaries -------- The following x64 and x86 builds are automatically generated by a Jenkins job at every commit: https://www.cloudbase.it/downloads/CloudbaseInitSetup_x64.msi https://www.cloudbase.it/downloads/CloudbaseInitSetup_x86.msi Metadata services ----------------- A metadata service has the role of pulling the metadata configuration information. Supported clouds and metadata services: * OpenStack (HTTP) * OpenStack (ConfigDrive) * Amazon EC2 * CloudStack * OpenNebula * Ubuntu MAAS Plugins ------- Plugins execute actions based on the metadata obtained by the service. cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.sethostname.SetHostNamePlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sets the instance's hostname. cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.createuser.CreateUserPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Creates a local cloud user (if it does not already exist) and adds it to a set of provided local groups. The following configuration parameters control the behaviour of this plugin. +------------+--------------------------------+------------------+ | Option | Description | Default | +============+================================+==================+ | *username* | Name of the cloud user | *Admin* | +------------+--------------------------------+------------------+ | *groups* | Comma separated list of groups | *Administrators* | +------------+--------------------------------+------------------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.setuserpassword.SetUserPasswordPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sets the cloud user's password. If a password has been provided in the metadata during boot (user_data) it will be used, otherwise a random password will be generated, encrypted with the user's SSH public key and posted to the metadata provider (currently supported only by the OpenStack HTTP metadata provider). +------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +========================+=====================================================================================+=========+ | *inject_user_password* | Can be set to false to avoid the injection of the password provided in the metadata | *True* | +------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+---------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.networkconfig.NetworkConfigPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Configures static networking. +-------------------+------------------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +===================+==============================+=========+ | *network_adapter* | Network adapter to configure | *None* | +-------------------+------------------------------+---------+ If *network_adapter* is not specified, the first available ethernet adapter will be chosen if it cannot be matched with the configuration provided in the metadata. cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.sshpublickeys.SetUserSSHPublicKeysPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Creates an "authorized_keys" file in the user's home directory containing the SSH keys provided in the metadata. It is needed by the *cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.setuserpassword.SetUserPasswordPlugin* plugin. cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.extendvolumes.ExtendVolumesPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Extends automatically a disk partition to it's maximum size. This is useful when booting images with different flavors. cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.winrmlistener.ConfigWinRMListenerPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Configures a WinRM HTTPS listener to allow remote management via WinRS or PowerShell. cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.winrmcertificateauth.ConfigWinRMCertificateAuthPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Enables password-less authentication for remote management via WinRS or PowerShell. See: http://www.cloudbase.it/windows-without-passwords-in-openstack/ cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.localscripts.LocalScriptsPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Executes any script (e.g. Powershell, CMD, etc) located in the following path. +----------------------+--------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +======================+====================+=========+ | *local_scripts_path* | Local scripts path | *None* | +----------------------+--------------------+---------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.licensing.WindowsLicensingPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Activates the Windows instance if the following option is True. +--------------------+------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +====================+==================+=========+ | *activate_windows* | Activate Windows | *False* | +--------------------+------------------+---------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.windows.ntpclient.NTPClientPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Applies NTP client info based on the DHCP server options, if available. +-----------------------+-------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +=======================+===================+=========+ | *ntp_use_dhcp_config* | Set NTP from DHCP | *False* | +-----------------------+-------------------+---------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.mtu.MTUPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sets the network interfaces MTU based on the value provided by the DHCP server options, if available. This is particularly useful for cases in which a lower MTU value is required for networking (e.g. OpenStack GRE Neutron Open vSwitch configurations). +-----------------------+-------------------+---------+ | Option | Description | Default | +=======================+===================+=========+ | *mtu_use_dhcp_config* | Set MTU from DHCP | *True* | +-----------------------+-------------------+---------+ cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.userdata.UserDataPlugin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Executes custom scripts provided with the user_data metadata as plain text or compressed with Gzip. Supported formats: Windows batch """"""""""""" The file is executed in a cmd.exe shell (can be changed with the COMSPEC environment variable). The *user_data* first line must be: rem cmd PowerShell """""""""" The user_data first line must be: #ps1_sysnative or for a x86 PowerShell execution: #ps1_x86 Bash """" A bash shell needs to be installed in the system and available in the PATH in order to use this feature. The user_data first line must start with: #! e.g.: #!/bin/bash cloud-config """""""""""" Cloud-config YAML configuration as supported by cloud-init, excluding Linux specific content. The user_data first line must be: #cloud-config The following cloud-config directives are supported: * write_files Defines a set of files which will be created on the local filesystem. It can be a list of items or only one item, with the following attributes: - path Absolute path on disk where the content should be written - content The content which will be written in the given file - permissions Integer representing file permissions - encoding The encoding of the data in content. Supported encodings are: ``b64``, ``base64`` for base64-encoded content, ``gz``, ``gzip`` for gzip encoded content, ``gz+b64``, ``gz+base64``, ``gzip+b64``, ``gzip+base64`` for base64 encoded gzip content. Examples:: # One item write_files: encoding: b64 content: NDI= path: C:\test permissions: '0o466' # Multiple items write_files: - encoding: b64 content: NDI= path: C:\b64 permissions: '0644' - encoding: base64 content: NDI= path: C:\b64_1 permissions: '0644' - encoding: gzip content: !!binary | H4sIAGUfoFQC/zMxAgCIsCQyAgAAAA== path: C:\gzip permissions: '0644' * set_timezone Change the underlying timezone.
