How to use the built boxes?

Hi,

I succeeded to build a Vagrant box with Packer for XenServer 7.2.
I did a vagrant up with this box and it seems to boot.

However the vagrant ssh is not working.
I also tried using the VirtualBox console where I can access the Xen console but I don't know the default credentials (for root user).

Any hint ?

Thanks

Sample fails with default box setup

Hello again,

So I suceedeed bringing up a XenServer host in VirtualBox from a created Vagrant box.
Here is my Vagrantfile:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "debovema/xenserver"
  config.vm.box_version = "7.2.0"

  # forward HTTP(S) port from the VM to the host to access the XenServer API in Terraform
  config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 80
  config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 443, host: 443

  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
    vb.memory = "4096" # increase memory to 4 Gb
  end
end

After doing vagrant up and vagrant ssh, I manually set a password for root user with passwd command to be used as crendentials by your Terraform provider for XenServer.

Now this is the sample Terraform file I would like to use:

provider "xenserver" {
  url      = "http://192.168.1.74/"
  username = "root"
  password = "<password>"
}

resource "xenserver_vdi" "disk1" {
  sr_uuid = "d39f638d-1977-5879-c9f1-b14e6d48241e"
  name_label = "disk1"
  size = 4294967296 # 4GB
}

resource "xenserver_network" "network" {
  name_label = "network"
  bridge = "Network 0" # default network name is "Network 0"
  description = "network"
}

resource "xenserver_vm" "vm-test" {
    name_label = "vm-test"
    base_template_name = "Debian Wheezy 7.0 (32-bit)"
    static_mem_min = 2147483648 # 2GB
    static_mem_max = 2147483648
    dynamic_mem_min = 2147483648
    dynamic_mem_max = 2147483648
    boot_order = "cdn"

    network_interface {
        network_uuid = "${xenserver_network.network.id}"
        mac = "12:34:45:67:89:12"
        mtu = 1500
        device = 0
    }

    vcpus = 2

    hard_drive {
      vdi_uuid = "${xenserver_vdi.disk1.id}"
    }
}

Notice that I used the Debian Wheezy 7.0 (32-bit) template as it will use Paravirtualization (PV) instead of Hardware-assisted Virtualization (HVM) which is not supported when the XenServer host is already running virtualized.

Basically, I create a 4Gb virtual disk on the default local storage (UUID can be seen below with xe sr-list command) and a network interface for the VM.

When I run terraform apply, here's what I got:

Error applying plan:

1 error(s) occurred:

* xenserver_vm.vm-test: API Error: UUID_INVALID sr

Terraform does not automatically rollback in the face of errors.
Instead, your Terraform state file has been partially updated with
any resources that successfully completed. Please address the error
above and apply again to incrementally change your infrastructure.

So to sum up I have API Error: UUID_INVALID sr whereas the different resources seem to be created (as seen with XenCenter). However none of the dependencies is bound to the VM.

Is there something I am missing ?
Do you have a much appreciated working sample ? The one on this page is not very comprehensive.
