Hi,
I’ve got none so far.
I’m trying to understand how this works.
According to the documentation Foreman :: Manual #5.29 I just need to create a user/finish template to configure the IP on the vm right ?
I want to set a static IP on my VM
If someone has a template to share I’ll be more than happy.
Thank you
Hi,
I’ve made some progress. Following your advice I created a Provisioning template type Finish template (I try user data too) :
# YAML file
<%#
kind: user_data
name: UserData default
oses:
- CentOS 4
- CentOS 5
- CentOS 6
- CentOS 7
- Debian
- SLES 9
- SLES 10
- SLES 11
- SLES 12
- Ubuntu 10.04
- Ubuntu 11.04
- Ubuntu 11.10
- Ubuntu 12.04
- Ubuntu 12.10
- Ubuntu 13.04
- Ubuntu 13.10
- Ubuntu 14.04
- Ubuntu 14.10
- Ubuntu 15.04

This fail with error :
There was an error rendering the Debian 9 template: undefined method '#params' for Host::Managed::Jail (Host::Managed)
I found this template on Internet. I don’t understand what language is expected for finish template or User data.
Thanks for you help !
Let me try to work with this and then I can do a demo for you if that would work?
If you want to PM me your email on here, I can schedule a Bluejeans remote session for next Tuesday.
Let me know if that would help you and get this issue solved.
Hi,
thanks, Finaly I’m able to deploy the VM and get it reconfigured for the network awesome !
I would like tho share the provisioning template I found on github :
identity:
LinuxPrep:
domain: <%= @host.domain %>
hostName: <%= @host.shortname %>
globalIPSettings:
dnsServerList: [ <%= @host.primary_interface.subnet.dns_primary %>, <%= @host.primary_interface.subnet.dns_secondary %> ]
dnsSuffixList: [<%= @host.domain %>]
nicSettingMap:
<% @host.interfaces.each do |interface| %>
- adapter:
ip: <%= interface.ip %>
subnetMask: <%= interface.subnet.mask %>
<% if interface.primary -%>gateway: [<%= interface.subnet.gateway %>]<% end %>
<% end %>
This need of course when you deploy a vm to provide all those values.
The last issue I got is that my VM in foreman UI Build state is Pending installation
I guess I’m missing something here i’ll check that

here you can find a good guide. You missed the configuration steps, eg via cloud-init or via ssh. Take a look of it, it’s a really good how to
