It was an oversight during v2 development for dib to start providing dib-run-parts. The intention was for dib to use a vendored dib-run-parts directly from $_LIB and have no dependencies on dib-utils at all. By exporting dib-run-parts, we created an unintentional conflict with the dib-utils package which provides the same script. Tools that depend on dib-utils are unaffected by this (os-refresh-config). The only tool that installs diskimage-builder and then assumes dib-run-parts is available in the path is instack. I have proposed Ibfe972208df40fa092b11b5419043524c903f1b4 to modify that to use our internal version. Change-Id: I149c345d38d761a49b3a6ccc4833482f09f1cd05
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=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntu
will create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty 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 that are
responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to
build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
