I have made some Factory updates that allow koji, without any additional patching, to build Vagrant box files directly. Specifically, box files that work with the vagrant virtualbox and vagrant libvirt flavors. I'd like to work to get these applied to the CBS builder host. (I'm working on HyperV but have found the Microsoft OVF format to be a bit more obtuse and difficult than the one for Virtualbox.) The details are in the commit message here: https://github.com/redhat-imaging/imagefactory/commit/f51a8da61737b4c664cf22dc17bcb806c601b862 The updated packages are currently in updates-testing for EPEL7 and updates-stable for F21. The C7 compatible builds are here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=602669 - imagefactory http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=602674 - imagefactory-plugins http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=600869 - VMDKstream (This last one is needed to produce streaming VMDK files that are acceptable to Virtualbox). In koji these features are available by passing additional keyword arguments to the existing OVA plugin integration via the CLI. Adding these lines, for example, will result in the creation of both a virtualbox and libvirt "box" file based in an existing image build: --format=vsphere-ova \ --format=rhevm-ova \ --ova-option vsphere_ova_format=vagrant-virtualbox \ --ova-option rhevm_ova_format=vagrant-libvirt \ Note that the underlying image must meet a few criteria, described in the Vagrant documentation, in order to actually work. Specifically, it needs to be set up with a "vagrant" user with password-less sudo and a well known "insecure" authorized_key file (which is replaced when the VM is first launched). As a result the underlying disk images are clearly _not_ appropriate for other image use cases like cloud. (Though they can be essentially identical to the cloud images, or Atomic images, etc. in most other ways.) -Ian On 11/13/2014 02:50 PM, Ian McLeod wrote: > Hello all, > > Thanks to Thomas' (alphacc) work last Friday, we now have the image > building features enable on the CBS koji instance.
