-
headless
(bool) - Packer defaults to building VMware virtual machines
by launching a GUI that shows the console of the machine being built. When
this value is set to true, the machine will start without a console. For
VMware machines, Packer will output VNC connection information in case you
need to connect to the console to debug the build process.
-
vnc_bind_address
(string) - The IP address that should be
binded to for VNC. By default packer will use 127.0.0.1 for this. If you
wish to bind to all interfaces use 0.0.0.0.
-
vnc_port_min
(int) - The minimum and maximum port
to use for VNC access to the virtual machine. The builder uses VNC to type
the initial boot_command. Because Packer generally runs in parallel,
Packer uses a randomly chosen port in this range that appears available. By
default this is 5900 to 6000. The minimum and maximum ports are
inclusive.
-
vnc_port_max
(int) - VNC Port Max
-
vnc_disable_password
(bool) - Don't auto-generate a VNC password that
is used to secure the VNC communication with the VM. This must be set to
true if building on ESXi 6.5 and 6.7 with VNC enabled. Defaults to
false.
