在迁移到Chef Provisioner块之前，vRA Windows计算机创建不会返回主机名/地址

Question

在vRA中创建Windows计算机时，Terraform将在获取新计算机的IP / FQDN并传递到资源调配器之前，移至Chef Provisioner块。

Terraform v0.11.14 + provider.vra7 v0.2.0

我已经尝试了一切可以从互联网上获得的东西；使用caly_on属性，设置睡眠计时器，使loca-exec's刀启动，似乎无济于事。

resource "vra7_deployment" "terraform-1" {
  count             = "${var.server_count}"
  description       = "deployment via terraform"
  reasons           = "because it's awesome"
  catalog_item_name = "${var.vra_cat_item_name}"
  wait_timeout      = "1800"

  provisioner "chef" {
    # This is for chef_server to talk to the node
    connection {
      type = "winrm"
      user = "${var.KT_USER}"
      password = "${var.KT_PASS}"
      insecure = true
    }

    # This is for TF to talk to the chef_server
    server_url = "${var.chef_server_url}" 
    node_name  = "terraform-chef-test"
    run_list   = [ ]
    user_name  = "${var.chef_user_name}"
    user_key   = "${file(var.chef_user_pem)}"
    recreate_client = true
    fetch_chef_certificates = true
    environment = "_default"
    ssl_verify_mode = false
    version = "12"
  }
}

错误：

vra7_deployment.terraform-1: Still creating... (21m20s elapsed)

Answer 1

var.chef_server_url是一个地形变量，不是vra7_deployment.terraform-1的输出。

如果未设置var.chef_server_url且没有任何值将其传递给供应商，则供应商连接将无法工作

Answer 2

我知道了。关键是要了解我的vRA实例已设置好，因此VM称为vSphere_Machine_1。它以Component Name的形式出现在用户界面中。

肯定有一些精神上的飞跃，我敢肯定我必须看过所有其他例子，并犯下所有的错误才能使我的大脑在那时融合在一起。无论采用哪种机制，此代码现在都起作用：

# in resource block
resource_configuration {
    vSphere_Machine_1.name = ""
  }

...

# in provisioner block
    connection {
      host = "${self.resource_configuration.vSphere_Machine_1.name}"
     ....
}

现在，当然，在下一个砖墙上...但是我想通了。我打算将其转发给社区。

对于其他有相同问题的人，您正在vRa项目的计算机列表中查找组件名称。
