Vsphere virtual machines: how to apply domain configuration to resolv.conf and eth configuration

[Luca I]

Hi.

Is there a way to apply domain configuration to /etc/resolv.conf and to ethernet configuration? These are my tf settings:

#define variable from terraform.tvars

variable "vsphere_user"       {}

variable "vsphere_password"   {}

variable "vsphere_server"     {}

variable "vsphere_cluster"    {}

variable "vsphere_datacenter" {}

variable "vsphere_domain"     {}

variable "vsphere_dns"        {}

# Configure the VMware vSphere Provider

provider "vsphere" {

  user           = "${var.vsphere_user}"

  password       = "${var.vsphere_password}"

  vsphere_server = "${var.vsphere_server}"

  allow_unverified_ssl = true

}

# Create a folder

resource "vsphere_folder" "testfolder" {

  path = "TEST/Vms"

  datacenter = "${var.vsphere_datacenter}"

}

# Create a virtual machine within the folder

resource "vsphere_virtual_machine" "web" {

  name   = "terraform-web"

  folder = "${vsphere_folder.testfolder.path}"

  vcpu   = 2

  memory = 2048

  datacenter = "${var.vsphere_datacenter}"

  cluster = "${var.vsphere_cluster}"

  domain = "my.custom.domain"

  gateway = "172.16.1.1"

  dns_servers = ["172.16.1.34"]

  #resource_pool = ""

  network_interface {

    label = "virtualwire_Template"

    ipv4_address = "172.16.1.2"

    ipv4_prefix_length = "28"

  }

  disk {

    template = "TEMPLATE/mytemplate"

  }

}

Configurations on new VM are correct on hosts file, but on resolv.conf and eth there is a default value (vsphere.local):

-/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4

::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

172.16.1.2 terraform-web.my.custom.domain terraform-web

-/etc/resolv.conf

search vsphere.local

nameserver 172.16.1.34

-/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

HWADDR=00:50:56:a0:12:4c

NAME=eth0

GATEWAY=172.16.1.1

DNS1=172.16.1.34

DOMAIN=vsphere.local

DEVICE=eth0

ONBOOT=yes

USERCTL=no

BOOTPROTO=static

NETMASK=255.255.255.240

IPADDR=172.16.1.2

PEERDNS=no

IPV6INIT=no

check_link_down() {

 return 1;

}

Thanks,

Luca.
