feature request: [define:[vlan,netmask,gateway,vcpu,mem,disksize,netboot], return: MACaddress]

[jamesliulondon]

Hi,
First off, I've decided to learn golang after seeing what you did for terraform-provider-xenserver.
But I'm a few weeks off before i can do something useful in this arena.

In the meantime, can you extend the go-xen-api-client and terraform-provider-xenserver to include:
Initially Define:

• vlan,netmask,gateway,
• vcpu, disksize, mem(static probably easier)
• bootorder (netboot)

Return:

• MAC address

This in conjunciton with ansible will make an awesome combination.

Hi,
I'm currently working on extending functionality of terraform-xenserver-provider. Currently implemented:

• VCPU
• CPU topology
• static and dynamic memory limits
• boot order
• interface assignment (network, mtu, device order and mac address)
• Attach existing disks and CDs
• Create new disks (via new resource type xenserver_vdi)

Work in progress:

• Attach existing disks and CDs
• Create new disks (via new resource type xenserver_disk)
• Create storage repositories
• VM installation
• Create network and VLAN
• Attach PCI

After all work will be finished I will create a pull request.

@jamesliulondon I would be very grateful if you can spend some time and test current state so I can fix possible existing bugs. Thanks!

UPDATE: Implemented creation of VDIs (hard drives), possibility to attach VDIs (HDD, CD) to VM
