Terraform Feilong Provider

This terraform provider enables to deploy s390 virtual machines on z/VM via Feilong.

NOTE: this is the branch for terraform 1.0.10 and upper (protocol version 6). The code for terraform 0.13.4 (protocol version 5) is in terraform-protocol-5 branch.

Requirements

• Terraform >= 1.0.10
• Go >= 1.21

Building The Provider

1. Clone the repository
2. Enter the repository directory
3. Build the provider using the Go install command:

go install

The provider will be installed into $GOPATH/bin.

The Feilong provider is in HashiCorp's registry. To bypass the registry, you can do one of these:

Create a system-wide symbolic link:

# mkdir -p /usr/share/terraform/plugins/registry.terraform.io/bischoff/feilong/0.0.7/linux_amd64/
# cd /usr/share/terraform/plugins/registry.terraform.io/bischoff/feilong/0.0.7/linux_amd64/
# ln -s <GOPATH>/bin/terraform-provider-feilong

Or define this override in the .terraformrc file in your home directory:

provider_installation {

  dev_overrides {
      "registry.terraform.io/bischoff/feilong" = "<GOPATH>/bin/"
  }

  direct {}
}

Replace <GOPATH> with the value of your $GOPATH environment variable.

Using the Provider

In your main.tf file, use:

terraform {
  required_version = ">= 1.0.10"
  required_providers {
    feilong = {
      source = "bischoff/feilong"
      version = "0.0.7"
    }
  }
}

provider "feilong" {
  connector = "http://1.2.3.4"     // URL of your z/VM cloud connector
                                   // (i.e. the VM where Feilong runs)
}

resource "feilong_guest" "opensuse" {
  name   = "leap"                  // arbitrary name for the resource
  memory = "2G"                    // memory size
  disk   = "20G"                   // disk size of first disk
  image  = "opensuse155"           // image

  // optional parameters:
  userid = "LINUX097"              // name for z/VM
  vcpus  = 2                       // virtual CPUs count
  mac    = "12:34:56:78:9a:bc"     // MAC address of first interface
                                   // (first 3 bytes may be changed by Feilong)
}

Then use Terraform commands:

$ terraform init
$ terraform apply
(use the VMs)
$ terraform destroy

For more details, refer to the documentation.

To Do

• Write missing CRUD functions:
  • vswitch Update()
  • cloudinit Read()
  • cloudinit Update()
• Support more z/VM resources:
  • network interface
  • minidisk
  • fiber channel
  • other?
• Resurrect acceptance tests
