Packer templates for building base OpenVZ and Virtuozzo VM boxes.

Usage

Installing Packer

Download the latest packer and unzip the appropriate directory.

If you're using Homebrew:

$ brew tap homebrew/binary
$ brew install packer

Running Packer

$ git clone https://github.com/ligurio/openvz-packer-templates
$ packer build virtuozzo-7.0.json

If you want to build only VirtualBox:

$ packer build -only=virtualbox-iso virtuozzo-7.0.json

The result box will be available in builds/ directory.

Virtuozzo 7.0 Beta 2

By default the box virtuozzo-7.0 will be built using the ISO from the latest released milestone of Virtuozzo 7.0. At this moment it is 7.0-beta1 If you want to build the box virtuozzo-7.0 from the current factory ISO build, you should override iso_url and iso_checksum variables, for example:

$ export VZ_FACTORY_URL=https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory/x86_64/iso/factory-DVD && \
  export VZ_FACTORY_CHECKSUM=`curl --silent https://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory/x86_64/iso/factory-CHECKSUM | grep DVD | awk '{print $1}'`

$ packer build -var "iso_url=${VZ_FACTORY_URL}" -var "iso_checksum=${VZ_FACTORY_CHECKSUM}" virtuozzo-7.0.json

Using Vagrant box

$ vagrant init OpenVZ/Virtuozzo-7
$ vagrant up --provider virtualbox
$ vagrant ssh
