Hi list,
it is possible to change the DMI Chassis Serial value in the VM config?
Virtualbox is able to perform this via the following command for example:
c:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe setextradata
"NAME_OF_VIRTUAL_MACHINE"
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcbios/0/Config/DmiChassisSerial" "123456789"
Handle 0x0300, DMI type 3, 21 bytes
Chassis Information
Manufacturer: Red Hat
Type: Other
Lock: Not Present
Version: RHEL 7.2.0 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
* Serial Number: Not Specified*
Asset Tag: Not Specified
Boot-up State: Safe
Power Supply State: Safe
Thermal State: Safe
Security Status: Unknown
OEM Information: 0x00000000
Height: Unspecified
Number Of Power Cords: Unspecified
Contained Elements: 0
root@demo:~ # dmidecode -s chassis-serial-number
*Not Specified*
I want to change the red above!!
Is there a way to change that in Ovirt as well?
Best regards and thank you for your help.
Christoph

You should be able to change it from the GUI: Edit -> Show Advanced
Options -> System -> General -> Provide Custom serial number policy ->
Custom serial number.
You can also change it with the API, for example with the Python SDK:
---8<---
#!/usr/bin/python
from ovirtsdk.api import API
from ovirtsdk.xml import params
# Connect to the server:
api = API(
url="https://rhevm36.example.com/ovirt-engine/api";,
username="admin@internal",
password="...",
ca_file="/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem",
debug=True
)
# Find the VM:
vm = api.vms.get(name="myvm")
# Set a custom serial number:
vm.set_serial_number(
params.SerialNumber(
policy="custom",
value="myserialnumber",
)
)
vm.update()
# Disconnect:
api.disconnect()
