Document how to specify OS image

[sungwonh]

Could you please add a guide on how to specify OS image (e.g., Fedora or Ubuntu) and where to locate the OS image file (e.g., .img file) on a host when create a VM?

Check the Makefile, when you run "make build", it will use the virt-builder centos-7.3 to compile kubevirt-demo.img.

build: data/bootstrap-kubevirt.sh Makefile virt-builder centos-7.3 \ --no-network \ --smp 4 --memsize 2048 \ --output $(IMAGE) \ --format qcow2 \ --size 20G \ --hostname kubevirt-demo \ --upload data/bootstrap-kubevirt.sh:/ \ --root-password password: \ --run-command "echo -e Login as \'root\' to proceed.\\n >> /etc/issue" \ --firstboot-command "GIT_TAG=$(GIT_TAG) bash -x /bootstrap-kubevirt.sh ; init 0 ;" @echo "Deploying KubeVirt inside the VM - This can take a while (progress: tail -f build.log)" @./run-demo.sh $(IMAGE) 2>&1 > build.log @echo "KubeVirt got deployed successful." @echo "Now run: ./run-demo.sh"

I mean a VM created by virt-handler when run the command "kubectl create -f vm.json". Could you tell me how to specify OS image in the vm.json file and where to locate that OS image file on a host?

[warmchang]

No idear about this. Actually, I have not try this repo successfully because of https://github.com/kubevirt/demo/issues/9

@warmchang the run-demo.sh is just starting the vm which contains the kubevirt setup - it's actually not releated how kubevirt is starting vms.

@sungwonh So - vm.json maps pretty much to the libvirt domainxml. You can try to use an iscsi or rbd volume and attach it as a root volume to the vm.

@fabiand Thanks. I'll try.
