I'm trying to create stack of multiple vms on KVM_HOST with terraform. The catch is, I'm using pxeboot & kickstart to do installation. Kickstart file needs to carry some dynamic information, like static IPs, hostname etc, therefore I have to create it for each vm, and this kickstart file needs to stay there till vm reads it & starts installation. Then next kickstart file is created for vm 2, and it needs to stay there till vm2 reads it for installation. So there should be some delay in creating these resources, either with loop or depend_on parameter, but what I'm getting is, kickstart files for all vms are generated right away, last one is overriding, of course, so correct info is not passed.
here's two resources which I need to loop in sequence for number of variable value qty
variable "vm_count" {
type = number
default = 1
}
below are resources
resource "null_resource" "delay" {
count = var.vm_count
provisioner "local-exec" {
command = "sleep 150"
}
depends_on = [libvirt_domain.vm]
}
resource "local_file" "kickstart_file" {
count = var.vm_count
content = templatefile("ks.tpl", {
ip = "192.168.1.${117 + count.index}"
netmask = var.netmask
gateway = var.gateway
dns = var.dns
hostname = "${var.hostname}-${count.index + 1}"
disk_size_rounded = ((var.disk_size - 1) * 1024) -1
})
filename = "/var/www/html/kickstart/ks-terraform.cfg"
}
resource "libvirt_domain" "vm" {
count = var.vm_count
name = "${var.hostname}-${count.index + 1}"
memory = var.memory
vcpu = var.cpu
arch = "x86_64"
cpu {
mode = "host-passthrough"
}
boot_device {
dev = ["hd", "network"]
}
disk {
volume_id = libvirt_volume.default_disk[count.index].id
}
graphics {
type = "vnc"
listen_type = "address"
autoport = true
}
network_interface {
bridge = "virbr0"
macvtap = false
}
depends_on = [local_file.kickstart_file, null_resource.delay]
}
how can I improve the logic with depends on or for_each?
