[one-users] advanced contextualization

[Daems Dirk]

Hello Javier,

I installed the latest version from the yum repository:

yum info opennebula-context.x86_64

Name        : opennebula-context
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 4.2.0
Release     : 1
Size        : 8.9 k
Repo        : installed
>From repo   : opennebula
Summary     : Configures a Virtual Machine for OpenNebula
URL         : http://opennebula.org
License     : Apache
Description : Configures a Virtual Machine for OpenNebula. In particular it configures the
            : udev rules, the network, and runs any scripts provided throught the CONTEXT
            : mechanism.

There doesn't seem to be a newer version available in the yum repo.
Should I have a look in the Git repo then?

Regards,
Dirk

There is a bug in old contextualization packages that made custom init scripts unable to run:

http://dev.opennebula.org/issues/2128

Upgrade your context script the latest version and you should be able to run it. You will also be able to name you init scripts other than init.sh and add more than one of those scripts using INIT_SCRIPTS variable.
