Creating BMSs

Function

This API is used to create one or more BMSs.

Background for Setting the Login Authentication Mode

Logging in to a BMS can be authenticated using either a key pair or password. For security purposes, you are advised to use key pair authentication.

  • Key pair

    A key pair is used for BMS login authentication.

    Method of calling APIs: Use the key_name field to specify the key file used for logging in to the BMS. For details about how to use the key_name field, see Table 2.

  • Password

    If you choose the initial password for authentication in a BMS, you can log in to a BMS using the username and its initial password. The initial password of user root is used for authentication in Linux.

    Methods of calling APIs:

    • Method 1 (recommended): Use the adminPass field to specify the initial login password of the specified administrator account. For details about how to use the adminPass field, see Table 2.

      For Linux BMSs with Cloud-Init, if field user_data is specified, field adminPass is invalid.

    • Method 2:
      • For Linux BMSs with Cloud-Init, use the user_data field to inject data. For details, see Table 2.

    Public images contain Cloud-Init or Cloudbase-Init by default. For private images, you need to check whether Cloud-Init or Cloudbase-Init is installed.

Constraints

  • File injection is not supported.
  • Currently, only yearly/monthly BMSs can be created.
  • Marketplace images cannot be used to create BMSs.

Precautions

  • If AK/SK authentication is used, set the region in the example code based on the Region column of the "Bare Metal Server (BMS)" section in Regions and Endpoints and set serviceName (service name abbreviation) to BMS.
  • For details about endpoints, see the Endpoint column of the "Bare Metal Server (BMS)" section in Regions and Endpoints.

Yes

String

Specifies the image ID or image resource URL used for creating the BMS. The ID is in the format of a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID).

You can obtain the image ID from the IMS console or by following the instructions in Querying Images in Image Management Service API Reference.

When using an API to query images, you can add the field ?virtual_env_type=Ironic to filter BMS images.

Specifies the flavor ID of the BMS. The format is physical.x.x.

You can obtain the flavor ID from the BMS console or using the Querying Flavor Details and Extended Flavor Information API.

NOTE:

For details about the images supported by different BMS flavors, see OSs Supported by Different Types of BMSs.

Only DeC tenants can apply for BMSs using the physical.x.x.hba flavor, and only DESS disks can be attached to BMSs using this flavor.

String

Specifies the BMS name.

Value range:

  • The value can contain a maximum of 63 characters consisting of letters (case-insensitive), digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
  • If more than one BMS is to be created, tags similar to -0000 will be automatically added to the end of the BMS names during the creation. In this case, the BMS name contains 1 to 58 characters.

Object

Specifies the BMS metadata. The maximum size for both the metadata key and value is 255 characters. For details, see Table 3.

user_data

No

String

Specifies the user data to be injected during the BMS creation. Text can be injected.

Constraints:

  • The content to be injected must be encoded with base64. The maximum size of the content to be injected (before encoding) is 32 KB.
  • If key_name is not specified, the password of user root for logging in to the BMS will be injected by default.
  • This parameter is mandatory when you create a Linux BMS using password authentication. Its value is the initial user root password.

Password complexity requirements:

  • Contains 8 to 26 characters.
  • Contains at least three of the following character types: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters !@$%^-_=+[{}]:,./?
An example is as follows:
1
2

echo 'root:$6$V6azyeLwcD3CHlpY$BN3VVq18fmCkj66B4zdHLWevqcxlig' | chpasswd -e

where, $6$V6azyeLwcD3CHlpY$BN3VVq18fmCkj66B4zdHLWevqcxlig is the ciphertext password, which can be generated as follows:

  1. Generate an encrypted salt value.
    1
    2
    [root@test linux]# python -c "import crypt, getpass, pwd;print crypt.mksalt()" 
    $6$V6azyeLwcD3CHlpY
    
  2. Generate a ciphertext password based on the salt value.
    1
    2
    [root@test linux]# python -c "import crypt, getpass, pwd;print crypt.crypt('Cloud.1234','\$6\$V6azyeLwcD3CHlpY')" 
     $6$V6azyeLwcD3CHlpY$BN3VVq18fmCkj66B4zdHLWevqcxlig
    
NOTE:

Data injection is not supported for BMSs that use a Linux image and the password login mode. For details about how to inject user data, see Injecting User Data into BMSs.

adminPass

No

String

Specifies the initial login password of the administrator account for logging in to a BMS using password authentication. The Linux administrator is root.

Password complexity requirements:
  • Contains 8 to 26 characters.

You can create a key pair using the Creating or Importing an SSH Key Pair (Native OpenStack API) API, or query existing key pairs using the Querying SSH Key Pairs (Native OpenStack API) API.

Constraints:

  • If both key_name and user_data are specified, user_data only injects user data.
  • When a Windows image is used to create a BMS, this parameter cannot be left blank because the Windows image supports only login using a key.
