I'm pretty new to foreman and the smart-proxies.
I was wondering if the following is possible or if this would need more
development work:
when creating a new VM just specify the network the VM needs to be in
and Foreman would contact Infoblox to get the next available ip in this
network/subnet. The VM would need to have a static ip configured which is
the one foreman gets back from Infoblox.
If I understand correctly this is what the IPAM integration would take care
off? Is my understanding correct?
Is this currently possibble?
If it's not I'm willing to see if I can help in getting this implemented.
I'd say this is more a question for foreman-users, but since we're here.
There is an Infoblox DHCP plugin that does this for you. I haven't used
it personally, but it should work.
https://github.com/theforeman/smart_proxy_dhcp_infoblox is the git repo,
but it's easier to just use the correct options in the installer. From
the top of my head that's --foreman-proxy-dhcp-provider=infoblox
–foreman-proxy-plugin-dhcp-infoblox=true but consult --help to be sure.
