Description

Hi,

Proxmox VE (proxmox.com) is a quiet nice virtualization environment, supporting some features often used in businesses. We use it in several environments together with foreman. That plays quiet nice, but it would be even better, if VMs could be created from within foreman.

So I'm requesting to implement a provider for it in the "Compute resources". It includes a RESTful interface, so integration probably shouldn't be a hard task.

Best Regards,
Patrick

I would love to see this as well, I have tried looking into doing it myself, but gave up pretty quickly. As the company I work for pushes forward on our new ProxMox backed private cloud, I may have to revisit, but I would think that adding ProxMox support would be great for anyone wanting to stay open source and out of VMware's pocket.

Hi,

Before Foreman can support Proxmox, the under the hood libraly Fog must support it. Here is the relevant ticket on Fog :

Hello,

vagrant-proxmox is working good.
Is it possible to add official support for proxmox 4 ?

Hi Benjamin,

Could you please let me know - what's the current status of this issue?

The status of today is exactly the same. As long as there is no Proxmox provider for fog, no work regarding a Foreman plugin is possible.

https://github.com/tristanrobert/foreman-proxmox looks like at least a beginning to support proxmox :)

Hello,

Indeed, I started the project https://github.com/tristanrobert/fog-proxmox. It is a fog's module which allows proxmox to be used as a new compute resource in foreman.
You can follow the project board if you want to see how it goes.
I started the project https://github.com/tristanrobert/foreman-proxmox as a Foreman plugin which uses fog-proxmox.
I'm not sure the foreman team would like to put it in the core feature. It will depend on how many users are interested in it and how difficult it is to maintain.
When fog-proxmox have enough features, I will soon develop this foreman plugin.

I just wanted to chime in that yes, this would be a great feature to have available. Currently our lab uses oVirt, and our main environment includes Satellite / RHEV. However, Proxmox support is demanded from some of our admins, so it would be great to be able to incorporate this into a cohesive, top-down solution.

Edit: Can't wait to see what you have in the plugin.

Hello,

The gem is published for the first time. Get version >=0.3.1.
You can then test it and give me feedback or contribute through the github project. Hope to be useful.
I work now on foreman packaging (deb, rpm, yum, installer) to ease installation and try to make it official.

Hello, foreman_fog_proxmox is available in 0.5.0 release. It adds containers support. It is only available with Foreman 1.17. I work on next release in order to add 1.18 and 1.19 compatiblity. Feedback is welcome. If you like it you can support it.
