Installation

This gem ships as part of Chef Workstation so the easiest way to get started is to install Chef Workstation

If you're using bundler as part of a project, add knife and knife-vsphere to your Gemfile:

gem 'knife'
gem 'knife-vsphere

Depending on your system's configuration, you may need to run this command with root privileges.

Configuration

For initial development, the plugin targets all communication at a vCenter instance rather than at specific hosts. Only named user authentication is currently supported; you can add the credentials to your knife.rb file:

knife[:vsphere_host] = "vcenter-hostname"
knife[:vsphere_user] = "privileged username" # Domain logins may need to be "user@domain.com"
knife[:vsphere_pass] = "your password"       # or %Q(mypasswordwithfunnycharacters)
knife[:vsphere_dc] = "your-datacenter"

The vSphere password can also be stored in a base64 encoded version (to visually obfuscate it) by prepending 'base64:' to your encoded password. For example:

knife[:vsphere_pass] = "base64:Zm9vYmFyCg=="

If you get the following error, you may need to disable SSL certificate checking:

ERROR: OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0
state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed

knife[:vsphere_insecure] = true

Credentials can also be specified on the command line for multiple vSphere servers/data centers, or see dealing with multiple datacenters.

Description:

This is an Chef Knife plugin to interact with VMware's vSphere. This plugin currently supports the following:

Listings:

  • VMs
  • Folders
  • Templates
  • Datastores
  • VLANs (currently requires distributed vswitch)
  • Resource Pools and Clusters
  • Customization Specifications
  • Hosts in a Pool or Cluster
  • Network cards and VLANs for a VM

VM Operations:

  • Power on/off
  • Clone (with optional chef bootstrap and run list)
  • Delete
  • VMDK addition
  • Migrate
  • Add network
  • Connect/disconnect network
  • Delete network
  • Change network
  • Enable VNC remote console

Clone-specific customization options (for Linux guests):

  • Destination folder
  • CPU core count
  • CPU cores per socket
  • Memory size
  • Memory reservation
  • DNS settings
  • Hostname / Domain name
  • IP addresses / default gateway
  • vlan (currently requires distributed vswitch)
  • datastore
  • resource pool

Note: For Windows guests we can run FIELDS

Basic Examples:

Here are some basic usage examples to help get you started.

  • This clones from a VMware template and bootstraps chef into it. It uses the generic DHCP options.
$ knife vsphere vm clone MACHINENAME --template TEMPLATENAME --bootstrap --cips dhcp
  • This clones a vm from a VMware template bootstraps chef, then uses a Customization template called "SPEC" to help bootstrap. Also calls a different SSH user and Password.
$ knife vsphere vm clone MACHINENAME --template TEMPLATENAME --bootstrap --cips dhcp \
  --cspec SPEC --connection-user USER --connection-password PASSWORD

Note: add a -f FOLDERNAME if you put your --template in someplace other then root folder, and use --dest-folder FOLDERNAME if you want your VM created in FOLDERNAME rather than the root.

A full basic example of cloning from a folder, and putting it in the "Datacenter Root" directory is the following:

$ knife vsphere vm clone MACHINENAME --template TEMPLATENAME -f LOCATIONOFTEMPLATE \
  --bootstrap --start --cips dhcp --dest-folder /
  • Listing the available VMware templates
$ knife vsphere template list
Template Name: ubuntu16-template
$ knife vsphere template list -f FOLDERNAME
Template Name: centos7-template
  • Deleting a machine.
$ knife vsphere vm delete MACHINENAME (-P will remove from the chef server)

knife vsphere vm clone

Clones an existing VM template into a new VM instance, optionally applying an existing customization specification. If customization arguments such as --chost and --cdomain are specified, or if the customization specification fetched from vSphere is considered, a default customization specification will be attempted.

  • For windows, a sysprep based unattended customization in workgroup mode will be attempted (host name being the VM name unless otherwise specified).

  • For Linux, a fixed named customization using the vmname as the host name unless otherwise specified.

This command has many options which which to customize your VM. The most important part of this is the initial template. We have some guidance on how to make a template

Chef bootstrap options

These options alter the way that your VM will be bootstrapped with Chef after it is created. It is not necessary to bootstrap the VM, but at the very least --bootstrap is required to do so.

VMware options

These options alter the way the VM is created, such as to decide where it is placed.

--datastore STORE    - The datastore into which to put the cloned VM
--datastorecluster STORE - The datastorecluster into which to put the cloned VM
--dest-folder FOLDER - The folder into which to put the cloned VM
--resource-pool POOL|CLUSTER - The resource pool into which to put the cloned VM. Also accepts a cluster name.
--start - Start the VM after cloning.

Examples

$ knife vsphere vm clone NewNode --template UbuntuTemplate --cspec StaticSpec \
    --cips 192.168.0.99/24,192.168.1.99/24 \
    --chostname NODENAME --cdomain NODEDOMAIN

The customization specification defaults can be disabled using the --disable-customization true switch. If you specify a --cspec with this option, that spec will still be applied.

NOTE: if you are specifying a --cspec and the cloning process appears to not be properly applying the spec as defined on vSphere, consider using --disable-customization true as the conventions described above could be erroneously interfering with the spec as defined on vSphere.

Customization specifications can also be specified in code using the --cplugin and/or --cplugin-data arguments. See the plugins section for examples.

The --bootstrap-vault-* options can be used to send chef-vault items to be updated during the hand-off to knife bootstrap.

Example using --bootstrap-vault-json:

$  knife vsphere vm clone NewNode UbuntuTemplate --cspec StaticSpec \
    --cips 192.168.0.99/24,192.168.1.99/24 \
    --chostname NODENAME --cdomain NODEDOMAIN \
    --start true --bootstrap true \
    --bootstrap-vault-json '{"passwords":"default","appvault":"credentials"}'

knife vsphere vm show VMNAME PROPERTY (PROPERTY)

Shows one or more properties of the VM.

See "http://pubs.vmware.com/vi3/sdk/ReferenceGuide/vim.VirtualMachine.html" for allowed values.

Please note that this command starts at the vm object, where the corresponding knife vsphere vm config command focuses entirely on a customization specification. This gives you more flexibility in what you can query, but means you need to do some translations if you want to read old values and make a change. For example, you would query config.hardware.numCPU with this command but set numCPUs.

Examples:

knife vsphere vm show myvirtualmachine config.hardware.memoryMB config.hardware.numCPU -F json

knife vsphere vm config VMNAME PROPERTY VALUE (PROPERTY VALUE)

Sets a vSphere property (or series of properties), such as CPU or disk, on a VM

See "http://pubs.vmware.com/vi3/sdk/ReferenceGuide/vim.vm.ConfigSpec.html" for allowed PROPERTY values (any property of type xs:string or numeric is supported)."

Examples:

$ knife vsphere vm config myvirtualmachine memoryMB 4096

knife vsphere vm toolsconfig VMNAME PROPERTY VALUE

--empty           - allows clearing string properties

Sets properties in tools property. See "https://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk25pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.vm.ToolsConfigInfo.html" for available properties and types.

Developing, or using the latest code

The master version of this code may be ahead of the gem itself. If it's in master you can generally consider it ready to use. To use master instead of what's published on Ruby gems:

$ gem uninstall knife-vsphere
$ git clone git@github.com:chef/knife-vsphere.git # or your fork
$ cd knife-vsphere
$ rake build                                           # Take note of the version
$ gem install pkg/knife-vsphere-1.1.1.gem              # Use the version above

If you are doing development, then you can run the plugin out of a checked out copy of the source:

$ bundle install # only needs to be done once
$ bundle exec knife vsphere ...

Plugins

knife-vsphere supports some plugins, currently only for the clone operation.

Plugins let you write code to further customize the operation you are sending to vCenter.

The basic idea is that plugins expose well known methods to knife, which are then run at particular times. The values returned from your methods are passed directly to vSphere.

Below are examples of the potential implementations that would be saved to an rb file and passed in the --cplugin argument.

Getting help

If the software isn't behaving the way you think, or you're having trouble doing something, we're happy to help. Try this checklist:

  • Are you running the latest version? gem list knife-vsphere. You can always upgrade with gem install knife-vsphere
  • Try running the same command with -VV to add additional logging messages
  • Are there any errors in the vSphere console or logs?
  • Search for known issues at https://github.com/chef/knife-vsphere/issues

If you're still having problems, head on over to the issues page and create a new issue. Please include:

  • A description of what you are trying to do, what you are seeing
  • The version number of knife-vsphere and of vSphere itself
  • The exact command you're running and the output (sanitize anything you don't want public!)
