Hi all
I've been on the hunt to find the smallest Operating System that can be used for demo purposes.
I want to be able to create vApps quickly so a small footprint would be ideal.
What do you guys use?
I found this Guest operating system customization support in vCloud Director 5.5 (2058524) | VMware KB
I'm still looking for a "micro distribution" that supports Guest Customization.
What's the smallest available?
The smallest one is in repository is Photon OS. deploy less than in 5 minutes. and works the same way as other linux flavors.
Else you can go for any linux based vapp (Centos) is there. its lil bit bigger than Photon but smaller than other windows vapps.
Does Photon OS support Guest Customization?
I forgot to mention another requirement is configuring the VM IP address via vCloud GUI.
Sorry for confusion, i was talking about vCloud Air.
if you want to do it for vCloud Director you can use any linux flavoured iso preferred Centos and give it minimum resources (Disk memory etc.) it will allow you to do the guest cusotmization also you can configure the IP through the vcloud director .
