But you hated Python, didn't you? ;-)
I do. Can't stand it. Doesn't mean I can't read it and/or write it, but I have to hold my nose doing it. Syntactic white space? Eww. But Python is already installed and used and, apparently, supported.. And when I looked at the examples I found that 90% of what I needed to do was already implemented, so it turned out to be much easier than expected.
I downloaded your files, even if I'm far from knowing python....
It's pretty much a direct translation of my bash script around ovirt-shell. It does have one feature that the old code didn't, which is the ability to wait for ovirt to declare that a vm is actually "up".
try the ansible playbook that gives you more flexibility in my opinion
I've never even installed ansible, let alone tried to use it. I don't need flexibility, I need the job to get done. But I'll take a look when I get the chance. Thanks!
