Use RHEL cloud images as the baseline for built disk images.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Because RHEL base images are not publicly available, it is necessary to first
|
||
|
|
download the RHEL cloud image from the Red Hat Customer Portal and pass the
|
||
|
|
path to the resulting file to disk-image-create as the ``DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE``
|
||
|
|
environment variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The cloud image can be found at (login required):
|
||
|
|
RHEL8: https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/479/ver=/rhel---8/8.0/x86_64/product-software
|
||
|
|
RHEL7: https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/69/ver=/rhel---7/7.1/x86_64/product-downloads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then before running the image build, define DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE (replace the file
|
||
|
|
name with the one downloaded, if it differs from the example):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE=rhel-8.0-x86_64-kvm.qcow2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The downloaded file will then be used as the basis for any subsequent image
|
||
|
|
builds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For further details about building RHEL images, see the rhel-common and
|
||
|
|
redhat-common element README files.
