Description

Currently there's a lot of wasted cycles when you spin up, say, a webserver hostgroup from a clean minimal image, as the packages (such as Apache) take time to install. We should support running a one-time Host, executing a puppet run on it, executing a cleanup script, and then pushing a copy of that Host's disk back to the CR as a new image.

Currently, this was stalled for Sprint 20 due to other issues taking priority. It should still work for Openstack, but I need to retest against the latest versions of Dynflow and Foreman-tasks, and then extend for other Compute Resources

Openstack and Libvirt now supported. Dynflow/ForemanTasks is optional. Still need to do oVirt, EC2, and ideally VMware, and add error handling and tests.

  • Status changed from Assigned to Resolved

Added subproject for the plugin and broke this into multiple tickets. Closing this one as "Complete" since the plugin exists and works for 2 CRs
