Hi colleagues,
we've faced an issue, described in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020622 - when VM don't see
virtio-scsi devices if there are 2+ connected devices (in our case there
are block device itself and config drive). We're under Ubuntu 16.04 and
while Redhat released fixed version of seabios (1.10.2-3), there is no
update for Ubuntu (still 1.10.2-1).
We see two ways to work around this problem:
1. try to replace seabios binaries (bios-256k.bin and bios.bin) with
ones from Redhat RPM on compute nodes
2. or use UEFI for booting images
Whether we missed others?
We will try 1st way, but I guess UEFI is more preferable long-term
solution, since it better itself than legacy BIOS.
During googling I wasn't find any recommendations on how to prepare UEFI
images using diskimage-builder.
Can anybody there point on documentation or give some recommendations on
how to create UEFI images with diskimage-builder?
Thank you!
