This addon produces a Windows Contextualization script to use in Windows Guest VMs running in an OpenNebula Cloud.
The documentation on Windows Contextualization can be found in the OpenNebula User's Guide.
Latest version can be downloaded from the release page.
Requirements for building:
- latest msitools
- binary rhsrvany.exe
Script generate.sh builds the MSI package. It's a wrapper around
the wixl command from msitools. It reads the package.wxs, a package
definition in the WiX-like XML format. Package name or version can be
overridden by env. variables NAME and VERSION. For example:
$ TARGET=msi ./generate.sh
$ NAME=one-context TARGET=msi ./generate.sh
$ VERSION=1.0.0 TARGET=msi ./generate.shNew package is created as ${NAME}-${VERSION}.msi,
e.g. one-context-1.0.0.msi in the out/ directory.
Please ignore following assertion on package build, which is caused
by skipping the attribute Start in tag ServiceControl. The parameter
is optional in WiX specification, but the msitools still counts with it.
Despite that, the package is built.
(wixl:22764): wixl-CRITICAL **: wixl_wix_builder_install_mode_to_event: assertion 'modeString != NULL' failed
On RHEL (CentOS) or Fedora systems the required binary
rhsrvany.exe is distributed as part
of the package virt-v2v and placed into /usr/share/virt-tools/rhsrvany.exe.
Please copy the EXE into your local repository clone before creating the MSI.
