VMWare Guestinfo Interface
Cloud-Config VMWare Guestinfo Variables
coreos-cloudinit accepts configuration from the VMware RPC API's guestinfo
facility. This datasource can be enabled with the --from-vmware-guestinfo
flag to coreos-cloudinit.
The following guestinfo variables are recognized and processed by cloudinit
when passed from the hypervisor to the virtual machine at boot time. Note that
property names are prefixed with guestinfo. in the VMX, e.g., guestinfo.hostname.
| guestinfo variable | type |
|---|---|
hostname |
hostname |
interface.<n>.name |
string |
interface.<n>.mac |
MAC address |
interface.<n>.dhcp |
{"yes", "no"} |
interface.<n>.role |
{"public", "private"} |
interface.<n>.ip.<m>.address |
CIDR IP address |
interface.<n>.route.<l>.gateway |
IP address |
interface.<n>.route.<l>.destination |
CIDR IP address |
dns.server.<x> |
IP address |
coreos.config.data |
string |
coreos.config.data.encoding |
{"", "base64", "gzip+base64"} |
coreos.config.url |
URL |
Note: "n", "m", "l", and "x" are 0-indexed, incrementing integers. The
identifier for an interface does not correspond to anything outside of this
configuration; it serves only to distinguish between multiple interfaces.
