(Optional) Installing bms-network-config

Scenario

network-config works with Cloudbase-Init to configure the BMS network.

Prerequisites

• You have logged in to the VM.
• Cloudbase-Init has been installed.

Procedure

1. Download the bms-network-config software package and SHA256 checksum by referring to Software and very the software package integrity (for details, seeHow Do I Verify Software Package Integrity?).

   Decompress the package to the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\LocalScripts\ directory.

   

   The value of bsdtar_path in the bms-network-config.conf file is C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\bin\bsdtar.exe by default. If Cloudbase-Init is installed in a non-default directory, set this parameter to the directory where bsdtar.exe is actually stored.

2. Use a text editor (such as Notepad) to open the Cloudbase-Init configuration file in the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\conf directory and check the path specified by local_scripts_path. Cloudbase-Init will execute the scripts from this path.

   

3. Copy bms-network-config.py to the C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\LocalScripts directory based on the value of parameter local_scripts_path in the Cloudbase-Init configuration file.

   The default path of Cloudbase-Init is recommended. If you store the script file in another directory, change the value of parameter local_scripts_path in the Cloudbase-Init configuration file.
