[Engine-devel] does now engine support join vm to AD

[bigclouds]

thanks, is it the best way? if is it possiable to add windows vm to domain automaticly without a reboot?
look at my thought. if  can make it true.
1.before start vm, inject domain infomations into guest-image(libguestfs), the another side ,it is DC(domain controller), we create  matching info(i do not know exactly what is that info, ad exchange with a host),
when start vm, it joins domain automaticly, user can login using domain account.

why it is realizable, because even you use sysprep, a reboot is needed, so they can connect seamless if they are prepared corrently?

i have try, but failed, i did not know how to prepare DC info.
thanks

 hi,all
does now engine support join vm to AD?
on UI there is a configuration option for windows domain, how to use it?

when creating template with windows os, you need to 'seal' it somehow for sysprep,

then you need to set the domain when creating vm from the template

(also you can set the windows domain on the template to be set by default to vms created for it)

and when you run the vm for the first time, the windows sysprep takes place and the domain should be set there.

make sure to select the right os on the template/vm since the sysprep is different between windows versions.



for linux im not sure, it might be possible with cloud init, with user-scripts, once we have this option (currently not implemented)

thanks.
