[Xen-users] Test of XCP 1.5: xe vm-install / xe vm-add-disk CLI options for VDI (sm-config:type=raw)
Hello,
Thanks a lot for XCP 1.5. I did some tests and run in some issues.
Description:
I use the following script to create local SRs. It works fine.
# ---
#!/bin/bash
# Usage: $basename <xcp_host_name> <sr_label>
<sr_device>
XCP_HOST_ID=`xe host-list name-label="${1}" | sed -n 's/^uuid .*:
//p'`
SR_LABEL="$2"
SR_DEVICE=$3
# Example values
#XCP_HOST_ID=dev70
#SR_LABEL="dev70 local LVM SR 2"
#SR_DEVICE=/dev/sdb
### # Create local SR (storage repository) on the given XCP host
xe sr-create host-uuid=$XCP_HOST_ID content-type=user
name-label="${SR_LABEL}" shared=false
device-config:device=${SR_DEVICE} type=lvm
SR_ID=`xe sr-list name-label="${SR_LABEL}" | sed -n 's/^uuid .*:
//p'`
# ---
I use the following script to create local VDIs. It works fine too,
however I *didn't* find any possibility to attach such VDI with it's
specific options (*sm-config:type=raw*) to VM or create such
VDI with "xe vm-disk-add ...." (as I am getting there always *sm-config:vhd_type=vhd*).
# ---
#!/bin/bash
# Usage: $basename <xcp_host_name> <sr_label>
<vdi_label> <vdi_size>
XCP_HOST_ID=`xe host-list name-label="${1}" | sed -n 's/^uuid .*:
//p'`
SR_LABEL="$2"
VDI_LABEL="$3"
VDI_SIZE=$4
SR_ID=`xe sr-list name-label="${SR_LABEL}" | sed -n
's/^uuid .*: //p'`
# Create new VDI (virtual disk image) with sm-config:type=raw
xe vdi-create name-label="${VDI_LABEL}" sr-uuid=$SR_ID type=user sm-config:type=raw
virtual-size=${VDI_SIZE}GiB
# ---
It creates the following VDI:
# ---
[root@dev70 ~]# xe vdi-list sr-name-label="dev70 LVM LSR 2"
params= | sed '/sm-config/s/^.../!!!/'

Just another scipt (a part of it directly below and full version in
attachment) creates the VM.

# Create new VM

I have checked the Xen-6.0.0-reference handbook but didn't find
needed details.
My questions:
1. Is there a possible "*sm-config:type=raw*" option on the
"xe vm-disk-add ..." command line?
2. Is it possible to specify "*vdi-uuid*" (instead of sr-uuid)
on the "xe vm-disk-add vm=..." command line?
Thank you in advance for any hints.
regards, Mark
