Hi,
with the 3.3 shell I just got the following tab options:
[oVirt shell (connected)]# action vm test start async pause vm-domain-user-password vm-os-cmdline vm-placement_policy-affinity vm-stateless correlation_id vm-display-type vm-domain-user-username vm-os-initRd vm-placement_policy-host-id grace_period-expiry vm-domain-name vm-os-boot vm-os-kernel vm-placement_policy-host-name
can I use newer cli versions with older engines? it's a 3.3.3-2 engine
In general you can use a newer version of the SDKs and CLI with an older engine, as the RESTAPI is backwards compatible. However, some options of the newer SDKs and CLI won't work, as the support in the engine side won't exist. In this particular case you probably have an old version of the Python SDK (the CLI sits on top of the Python SDK). To have the cloud-init support you need at least version 3.3.3.0 of the ovirt-engine-sdk-python package (better to use the latest, 3.3.3.1). In addition, as I mentioned before, there is a bug around the "hostname" attribute, it should have been "host-address". Auto-completion will tell you that the option is --vm-initialization-cloud_init-hostname, but actually it should be --vm-initialization-cloud_init-host-address. Typing that manually should work. I opened the following bug to track this issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1080033

Hi,
I'm just trying to figure out how to use run-once via shell..
[oVirt shell (connected)]# action vm vm_name start --run-once does not work, and there is no help for "action vm start"..
Does anybody have an idea on how to use run once via shell and how to pass cloud-init data over it?
If you type "action vm vm_name start" and then hit tab twice it should display the available command line options. In your case you are interested in the "initialization-cloud_init" options:
[oVirt shell (connected)]# action vm vm_name start <TAB><TAB> ... vm-initialization-cloud_init-authorized_keys-authorized_key vm-initialization-cloud_init-hostname vm-initialization-cloud_init-network-dns-search_domains-host vm-initialization-cloud_init-network-dns-servers-host vm-initialization-cloud_init-network-nics-nic vm-initialization-cloud_init-payload_files-payload_file vm-initialization-cloud_init-regenerate_ssh_keys vm-initialization-cloud_init-timezone vm-initialization-cloud_init-users-user ...
You should then be able to use these options as follows:
[oVirt shell (connected)]# action vm vm_name start --vm-initialization-cloud_init-hostname your_host_name
However, I think there is a bug in this particular option, the hostname, that will prevent using it. The name should be "host", not "hostname". As this is probably the first thing you will need the net result is that you won't be able to use it currently. I'm investigating it and will let you know if there is a workaround.
