Introduction

This is used to build appliances for use with CloudStack. Currently two build profiles are available for building systemvmtemplate (Debian based) and CentOS based built-in user VM template.

Setting up Tools and Environment

  • Install packer and latest KVM, qemu on a Linux machine

  • Install tools for exporting appliances: qemu-img, ovftool, faketime

  • Build and install vhd-util as described in build.sh or use pre-built binaries at:

    http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/vhd-util
    http://packages.shapeblue.com/systemvmtemplate/libvhd.so.1.0
    

How to build appliances

bash build.sh systemvmtemplate
bash build.sh builtin
