* replace heartbeat with health-check
* instead of steady stream of newlines every 5s, now awaits input
and responds with `vmstat` output
* more reliably use host/config/vm-exec.json to get libvirt domain name
for snapshot-revert, server address, serial ports, vagrant setting, etc
* use iptables/nftables to disable networking
* added guest/bin/disable-network-[iptables,nftables]
* added guest/bin/enable-network-[iptables,nftables]
* replace ugly ___OUTPUT___ texts in sh, bash, ksh, zsh languages
* documentation updates and tweaks
VM socket communication is superior to VM serial communication in
every way. Unfortunately at this time only Linux supports them.
Fortunately, that's 99% of PBot's userbase.
If you're not using Linux or if you're using an older Linux that
does not support VM sockets, the PBot VM scripts will gracefully
fallback to using the serial connection. You may explicitly
disable VM socket connection attempts by setting PBOTVM_CID=0.
* VM scripts can now be configured via environment variables:
PBOTVM_DOMAIN, PBOTVM_TIMEOUT, PBOTVM_SERVER, PBOTVM_SERIAL,
PBOTVM_HEART, PBOTVM_NOREVERT
This is expected to take three commits to complete. This first initial
commit does the following:
- Begin initial rough-draft of doc/VirtualMachine.md
- Begin initial refactoring of scripts
The next commit will polish up the initial rough-draft and refactoring.
The final commit will quality-check everything and fix anything overlooked.
