Image building tools for OpenStack
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
``diskimage-builder`` is a flexible suite of components for building a
|
|
wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk images for
|
|
use with OpenStack.
|
|
|
|
This repository has the core functionality for building such images,
|
|
both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using `elements`;
|
|
while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have
|
|
the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.
|
|
|
|
For example::
|
|
|
|
$ DIB_RELEASE=bionic disk-image-create -o ubuntu-bionic.qcow2 vm ubuntu
|
|
|
|
will create a bootable Ubuntu Bionic based ``qcow2`` image.
|
|
|
|
``diskimage-builder`` is useful to anyone looking to produce
|
|
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
|
|
components of `TripleO <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO>`__
|
|
that are responsible for building disk images. They are also used
|
|
extensively to build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly
|
|
with `nodepool
|
|
<https://docs.openstack.org/infra/system-config/nodepool.html>`__.
|
|
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
