Re: [OpenStack] Files Injection in to Windows VMs

 

Hi Wangpan,

Thanks for the response. The file injection is actually working, sorry my
bad I was setting the dst-path incorrectly. I am using Nova 2013.1(Grizzly)
and Windows XP 32bit VM.

When I used the following command, it worked:

nova boot --flavor f43c36f9-de6a-42f4-bbbb-edcedafe371a --image
3872c4c9-d8f7-4a18-a2cc-0406765d9379 --file balu.txt=balu.txt VM2

The file balu.txt ended up in C: drive.

Thanks again.

Regards,
Balu
