Rex::Commands::Virtualization - Virtualization module
With this module you can manage your virtualization.
Version <= 1.0: All these functions will not be reported.
All these functions are not idempotent.
use Rex::Commands::Virtualization;
set virtualization => "LibVirt";
set virtualization => "VBox";
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper vm list => "all";
print Dumper vm list => "running";
vm destroy => "vm01";
vm delete => "vm01";
vm start => "vm01";
vm shutdown => "vm01";
vm reboot => "vm01";
vm option => "vm01",
max_memory => 1024*1024,

print Dumper vm info => "vm01";
# creating a vm on a kvm host

This module only exports the vm function. You can manage everything with this function.
Create a (VirtualBox) VM named "vm01" with 512 MB ram and 1 cpu. One harddrive, 10 GB in size being a file on disk. With a cdrom as an iso image and a natted network. The bootorder is set to "dvd".
vm create => "vm01",
storage => [
{
file => "/mnt/data/vbox/vm01.img",
size => "10G",
},
{
file => "/mnt/iso/debian6.iso",
}
],
memory => 512,
type => "Linux26",
cpus => 1,
boot => "dvd";
Create a (KVM) VM named "vm01" with 512 MB ram and 1 cpu. One harddrive, 10 GB in size being a file on disk. With a cdrom as an iso image and a bridged network on the bridge virbr0. The Bootorder is set to "cdrom".
vm create => "vm01",
boot => "cdrom",

Create a (Xen/PVM) VM named "vm01" with 512 MB ram and 1 cpu. With one root partition (10GB in size) and one swap parition (1GB in size).
vm create => "vm01",
type => "pvm",

dev => "xvda2",
is_root => 1,
},

Start a stopped vm
vm start => "name";
Stop a running vm (send shutdown signal)
vm shutdown => "name";
Hard Stop a running vm
vm destroy => "name";
vm delete => "name";
Currently you can only modify the memory.
vm option => "name",
max_memory => 1024*1024, # in bytes
memory => 512*1024;
vm info => "name";
vm hypervisor => "capabilities";
