ansible-role-configdrive

Currently this repo is not being actively maintained. I suggest you use the fork maintained by David Blaisonneau: https://gitlab.com/davidblaisonneau-orange/ansible-role-configdrive

Ansible role to create config-drives for OpenStack Ironic. It creates OpenStack config-drives data for nodes and it is able to setup complex networking configuration like bonding, vlans and bridges on Debian and RedHat based distributions. Note that the images have to have support for those features (kernel modules, packages, ...). This tool just create the configuration files which are going to be injected in the host at boot time using Cloud-Init.

This playbook is intended to be executed prior to the deployments of nodes via Ironic. It creates a basic configuration drive containing network configuration, a SSH key permitting the user to login to the host, and other files like /etc/hosts or /etc/resolv.conf. Also, it is able to include user_data file https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit

Ansible 2.0, works with Ubuntu Trusty, Xenial and Centos 7

Requirements

It does not install packages on the target host, it just creates the folders and files needed to create a config-drive volume, So, be aware that you probably you will need to install genisoimage, base64 and gzip.
