Centos 7 image

[MindaugasM]

Hi,

I have a problem with centos 7 image. Image was downloaded from openstack site (qcow2). Later converted to vmdk. I could import it to VIO (create image) successfully.

I could create vm (launch image). No error found. But, i cannot login this vm. Access key doesn't work - connection refused. Ping fails - it looks likes some problems with ip assignment arises.

Do anybody has similar situation?

There are no problems with Centos 6.

Thank you in advance,

Mindaugas

Hello

Does the VM have a login screen ?

We have found that sometimes the wrong network adapter is used when importing the image into glance.

What you should do is after using qemu-img convert you should use

head -20 image.vmdk

this will display the adapter that is used in the image and this is the one you need to use when importing into glance. We also found that changing the adapter AFTER importing does not work....we only managed to get it working by importing with all the correct details prior to import.

Also another issue it may be that I think Centos 7 uses the naming of the network adapters something like ens160 and this causes issues with cloud-init but I am not that experienced with that but i know from past experience that Centos had this issue.
