John Trowbridge a38e9635bb Make the convert-image role more generic
Specifically this patch adds knobs for controlling whether:
- an update is run (convert_image_update)
- what packages get removed (convert_image_remove_pkgs)
- what packages get installed (convert_image_install_pkgs)
- what tempest plugins get installed (convert_image_tempest-plugins)

All defaults for the above options are set to the current hardcoded
values, so this is a no-op change wrt current configurations.
However, it allows for new configurations to take advantage of this
feature.

Convert an overcloud-full.qcow2 into an image to boot an undercloud from

The convert-image role transforms a overcloud-full image into one which an undercloud can be booted from in order to save time on package installs, while not needing to maintain/host a specific undercloud image.

Variables

  • convert_image_working_dir: -- directory to be used for image conversion
  • convert_image_template: jinja template for the script which does the conversion
  • convert_image_update: Boolean controlling whether to run an update as part of the image conversion
  • convert_image_remove_pkgs: List of packages that need to be removed from the overcloud image
  • convert_image_install_pkgs: List of packages that need to be installed on the overcloud image
  • convert_image_tempest_plugins: List of tempest plugins to install (This is separate from the install list so that it can be allowed to fail without failing the conversion)
