1 Configuration tasks performed during deployment
2 ===============================================
4 Partition Table manipulation
5 ----------------------------
6 During image deployment the last partiton is enlarged to use all
7 the available disk space. If SWAP property is present an extra
8 swap partition is also added.
12 This task enlarges the file system of the last partition to use
13 all the available partition space.
15 Swap partition configuration
16 ----------------------------
17 If swap partition is added during the image deployment, the swap
18 partition is formated and a swap entry is added to the instance's
23 All SSH keys found in the image are removed. For debian instance,
24 where the key creation is not perfored automatically, the keys
25 are recreated by this task.
27 Temporary disable Remote Desktop (RDP) connections
28 --------------------------------------------------
29 RDP connections are temporarily disabled during Windows
30 configuration. This is done because when sysprep runs, there is a
31 small time interval where the new password is not applied yet thus
32 allowing RDP connections which raises some security conserns.
34 Perform SELinux file system relabeling
35 --------------------------------------
36 For redhat-based images, since the instance's disk is modified
37 during deployment, a full SELinux file system relabeling needs to
38 be performed. This tasks triggers a full file system relabel at
41 Hostname or Computer name assignment
42 ------------------------------------
43 The instance name is assigned as hostname (or Computer Name for
48 This task will change the password for the users specified by
53 The files specified by the PERSONALITY image property are
54 injected into the instance's hard disk.
