|
- `output_directory` (string) - This is the path on your local machine (the one running Packer) to the
|
|
directory where the resulting virtual machine will be created.
|
|
This may be relative or absolute. If relative, the path is relative to
|
|
the working directory when packer is executed.
|
|
|
|
If you are running a remote esx build, the output_dir is the path on your
|
|
local machine (the machine running Packer) to which Packer will export
|
|
the vm if you have `"skip_export": false`. If you want to manage the
|
|
virtual machine's path on the remote datastore, use `remote_output_dir`.
|
|
|
|
This directory must not exist or be empty prior to running
|
|
the builder.
|
|
|
|
By default this is output-BUILDNAME where "BUILDNAME" is the name of the
|
|
build.
|
|
|
|
- `remote_output_directory` (string) - This is the directoy on your remote esx host where you will save your
|
|
vm, relative to your remote_datastore.
|
|
|
|
This option's default value is your `vm_name`, and the final path of your
|
|
vm will be vmfs/volumes/$remote_datastore/$vm_name/$vm_name.vmx where
|
|
`$remote_datastore` and `$vm_name` match their corresponding template
|
|
options
|
|
|
|
For example, setting `"remote_output_directory": "path/to/subdir`
|
|
will create a directory `/vmfs/volumes/remote_datastore/path/to/subdir`.
|
|
|
|
Packer will not create the remote datastore for you; it must already
|
|
exist. However, Packer will create all directories defined in the option
|
|
that do not currently exist.
|
|
|
|
This option will be ignored unless you are building on a remote esx host.
