Message #23850
Re: Way to attach floppy device to VM while booting
hi Ken'ichi Ohmichi,
Thanks for the suggestion ! I tried --file option but it failed.
Command:
nova boot --flavor 3 --image bae8715c-1758-4949-8bf7-e6bb4e983e67
--key_name key1 --file /tmp/input.xml=/home/ubuntu110/input.xml vm2
nova.conf file :,
--config_drive_format=iso9660
--libvirt_inject_partition=-2
It fails with the following error:
*2013-05-21 02:04:49 TRACE nova.rpc.amqp Command: sudo nova-rootwrap mkdir
-p /tmp/openstack-disk-mount-tmpWvaDMs/tmp*
