  • Creating an L-Server in a resource folder or a tenant folder

    Table 2.6 List of Items Specified in XML Definitions when Creating an L-Server in a Resource Folder or a Tenant Folder

    Element Name

    Description

    Remarks (Possible Values, Examples)

    Resource folder name or tenant folder name (*1)

    Name of the resource folder or the tenant folder to place the L-Server in
    (optional)

    Resource_folder_name/Resource_folder_name

    Tenant_folder_name/Resource_folder_name

    Resource_folder_name/Tenant_folder_name

    *1: Specify if creating an L-Server in a resource folder or a tenant folder.

  • Creating an L-Server (with one NIC) on a specific host without deploying cloning images using an L-Server template (for RHEL-Xen)

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Resources>
  <LServer name="first_server">
    <TemplateLink name="template1"/>
    <ServerType>Virtual</ServerType>
    <OSType>Linux</OSType>
    <NICs>
      <NIC>
        <NICIndex>0</NICIndex>
        <NetworkLink name="net01"/>
        <MacAddress auto="true" from="mac_address_set"/>
      </NIC>
    </NICs>
    <From>
      <VmHost name="vmhost1"/>
    </From>
  </LServer>
</Resources>

  • Creating another L-Server using detailed L-Server information

    Modify the following information.

    • Enclose everything in the Resources tags.

    • Modify the name of the LServer tag.

    • Delete the DiskLink, MacAddress, IpAddress tags and the name of Disk tag.

    • Add the OSSetting tag.

      When the name field of the NetworkLink tag is left blank, add an appropriate network resource name.

    The following example is used to create an L-Server that has the same configuration as one already created, using the detailed information of the L-Server created with a Linux cloning image that has been deployed.

    When deploying a Windows cloning image, changes should be made referring to the XML definition shown above.
