Description
When creating a content library item the files have a UUID appended to the file name that is not fetchable anywhere I can find which prevents using the file programmatically.
Use Case(s)
I'm attempting to import a Ubuntu cloud image VMDK into a content library then create a VM using the VMDK.
Potential Configuration
resource "vsphere_content_library_item" "item" {
name = var.item_name
type = "vmdk"
file_url = "https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/noble/current/noble-server-cloudimg-amd64.vmdk"
library_id = data.vsphere_content_library.main_templates.id
}
resource "vsphere_virtual_machine" "ubuntu_server_22_04_lts_current_az2" {
name = "ubuntu_server_22_04_lts_current_az2"
resource_pool_id = data.vsphere_compute_cluster.az2-drs02.resource_pool_id
datastore_id = data.vsphere_datastore.GOLD-AZ2-DRS02-DS01.id
num_cpus = var.template_vcpu
memory = var.template_memory
cpu_hot_add_enabled = true
memory_hot_add_enabled = true
guest_id = var.ubuntu_guest_os_type
scsi_type = var.template_scsi_type
folder = "Templates"
wait_for_guest_net_routable = false
wait_for_guest_ip_timeout = 0
wait_for_guest_net_timeout = 0
network_interface {
network_id = data.vsphere_network.az2.id
adapter_type = var.template_adapter_type
}
disk {
label = "Hard Disk 1"
datastore_id = data.vsphere_datastore.GOLD-AZ2-DRS02-DS01.id
attach = true
path = "contentlib-${vsphere_content_library.library.id}/${vsphere_content_library_item.item.id}/${var.item_name}_${vsphere_content_library_item.item.guid}.vmdk"
}
}
