Localhost Support

Roboconf has a IaaS implementation to deploy on the local host.

This implementation has no interest for production environments.
However, it is really useful to debug Roboconf.

When it is asked to create a VM, this implementation launches an agent instance into a distinct thread. Depending on the plug-ins the agent uses, this can lead to permissions issues. As an example, the Puppet plug-in requires root permissions to work. When someone uses this implementation, he or she should use the logger plug-in.

Sample iaas.properties.
Just copy / paste and edit.

# Configuration file for localhost
iaas.type = local 

This kind of IaaS does not have any specific property.
