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>

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
userdata
file in a folder, and build an ISO image using the folder.You can build an ISO image with
userdata
file by the following two methods:- Using any image processing tool such as PowerISO.
- Using
mkisofs
command in Linux.
The following sample configuration shows how to generate an ISO image using the
mkisofs
command 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) <!--NeedCopy-->
-
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> <!--NeedCopy-->
Example:
base64 esx_userdata.xml > esx_userdata_b64 <!--NeedCopy-->
-
Use online tools to encode user data content, for example, Base64 Encode and Decode.
