  • Using direct text input or upload of the configuration file accessible via network. The text or file must use the YAML format. This method is enabled by default cluster-wide in an OpenStack environment, although there may be some distributions that disable it.

  • Using the Configuration Drive (i.e., virtual CD-ROM). You provide the configuration file as described above and specify an additional Configuration Drive option. The file is automatically placed in an ISO image that appears to the VM as a CDROM drive.

  • Using the OVF transport method. The configuration file must be an XML file of the OVF schema type, encoded in the Base 64 encoding. For more information, see Using OVF Transport Method of Passing Configuration File to NetMRI VM Instance.
