在 VMware ESX 虚拟机管理程序上首次启动 NetScaler 设备时应用 NetScaler VPX 配置
您可以在 VMware ESX 虚拟机管理程序上首次启动 NetScaler 设备期间应用 NetScaler VPX 配置。 因此，在某些情况下，特定的设置或 VPX 实例会在更短的时间内启动。
有关预引导用户数据及其格式的更多信息， 请参阅在云中首次启动 NetScaler 设备时应用 NetScaler VPX 配置。
注意：
To bootstrap using preboot user data in ESX, default gateway config must be passed in
<NS-CONFIG>section. For more information on the content of the<NS-CONFIG>tag, see Sample-<NS-CONFIG>-section. 有关<NS-CONFIG>标记内容的更多信息，请参见 [示例<NS-CONFIG>-部分]（apply-preboot-userdata-on-esx-vpx.html #sample-<ns-config>-部分）。

How to provide preboot user data on ESX hypervisor
您可以通过以下两种方式在 ESX Hypervisor 上从 Web 客户端或 vSphere 客户端提供预启动用户数据：
- Using CD/DVD ISO
- Using OVF Property
Provide user data using CD/DVD ISO
您可以使用 VMware vSphere 客户端使用 CD/DVD 驱动器将用户数据作为 ISO 映像注入虚拟机。
按照以下步骤使用 CD/DVD ISO 提供用户数据：
-
使用文件名
userdata创建一个包含预启动用户数据内容的文件。 有关<NS-CONFIG>标签内容的更多信息，请参阅示例<NS-CONFIG>部分。注意：
文件名必须严格使用为
userdata。 -
Store the
userdatafile in a folder, and build an ISO image using the folder.You can build an ISO image with
userdatafile by the following two methods:- Using any image processing tool such as PowerISO.
- Using
mkisofscommand in Linux.
The following sample configuration shows how to generate an ISO image using the
mkisofscommand in Linux.root@ubuntu:~/sai/14jul2021# ls -l total 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 14 12:32 esx_preboot_userdata root@ubuntu:~/sai/14jul2021# root@ubuntu:~/sai/14jul2021# ls -l esx_preboot_userdata/total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3016 Jul 14 12:32 userdata root@ubuntu:~/sai/14jul2021# mkisofs -o esx_preboot_userdata.iso ./esx_preboot_userdata I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) Total translation table size: 0 Total rockridge attributes bytes: 0 Total directory bytes: 112 Path table size(bytes): 10 Max brk space used 0 176 extents written (0 MB) root@ubuntu:~/sai/14jul2021# ls -lh total 356K drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jul 14 12:32 esx_preboot_userdata -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 352K Jul 14 12:34 esx_preboot_userdata.iso root@ubuntu:~/sai# ls preboot_userdata_155_193 userdata root@ubuntu:~/sai# mkisofs -o preboot_userdata_155_193.iso ./preboot_userdata_155_193 I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) Total translation table size: 0 Total rockridge attributes bytes: 0 Total directory bytes: 112 Path table size(bytes): 10 Max brk space used 0 176 extents written (0 MB) -
使用标准部署流程预配 NetScaler VPX 实例以创建虚拟机。 但是不要自动打开虚拟机的电源。
-
After the VM is successfully created, attach the ISO file as CD/DVD drive to the VM.
-
Navigate to New CD/DVD Drive and choose Datastore ISO file from the drop-down menu.
-
Select a Datastore in the vSphere Client.
-
Power on the VM.
使用 ESX Web 客户端中的 OVF 属性提供用户数据
Follow these steps to provide user data using OVF property.
-
Create a file with user data content.
-
使用 Base64 编码对用户数据内容进行编码。 Encode the user data content with Base64 encoding. You can perform the Base64 encoding using the following two methods:
-
In Linux, use the following command:
base64 <userdata-filename> > <outuput-file>Example:
base64 esx_userdata.xml > esx_userdata_b64
-
Use online tools to encode user data content, for example, Base64 Encode and Decode.
