VSPHERE CLOUD-INIT

LINKS

• Terraform Registruy
• GitHub Repository

DESCRIPTION

This Terraform module deploys a virtual machine (or multiple, using 'for_each'), with following limitations:

HIGHLIGHTS

Using cloud-init , you can deploy both Windows & Linux machines using the same terraform module (and workflow).

• Linux template requires Cloud-Init (OVF/GuestInfo datasource(s) enabled)
• Windows template requires the CloudBase-Init (OVF/GuestInfo datasource(s) enabled)

LIMITATIONS

• Requires pre-created vSphere template.
• Single HDD supported (will add support for more if anyone requests it).
• Single NIC supported (will add support for more if anyone requests it).
• Not ALL fields supported for customization (will add support for more if anyone requests it).

EXAMPLES

See the examples folder in this repo.

# LINUX
module "vm_linux" {
  for_each = local.vm_list_linux
  source  = "Kreditorforeningens-Driftssentral-DA/vm-cloudinit/vsphere"
  version = "0.2.0"
  # --
  name       = each.value.name
  datacenter = each.value.datacenter
  datastore  = each.value.datastore
  network    = each.value.network
  cluster    = each.value.cluster
  template   = each.value.template
  # --
  vapp_properties = {
    hostname  = "id-ovf"
    user-data = data.cloudinit_config.KICKSTART_LINUX[each.key].rendered
  }
  metadata      = data.null_data_source.METADATA_LINUX[each.key].outputs["ubuntu"]
  userdata      = data.cloudinit_config.USERDATA_LINUX.rendered
}

# WINDOWS
module "vm_windows" {
  for_each = local.vm_list_windows

  # --
  metadata = templatefile("${path.module}/files/init-metadata.yaml", {HOSTNAME = each.value.name})
