Build setup for XenServer images for Vagrant

Vagrant images of XenServer

Bento is a project that encapsulates Packer templates for building Vagrant base boxes. A subset of templates are built and published to the bento org on Vagrant Cloud. The boxes also serve as default boxes for kitchen-vagrant.

Using Public Boxes

Adding a xenserver box to Vagrant

$ vagrant box add ringods/xenserver-6.2

Using a xenserver box in a Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "ringods/xenserver-6.2"
end

Building Boxes

Requirements

• Packer
• At least one of the following virtualization providers:
  • VirtualBox
  • VMware Fusion
  • VMware Workstation

Using packer

To build a Xenserver 6.2 box for only the VirtualBox provider

$ cd xenserver
$ packer build -only=virtualbox-iso xenserver-6.2-amd64.json

If the build is successful, ready to import box files will be in the builds directory at the root of the repository.
