VM is not powered on after creation on XCP-ng

[HaroldVB]

Hi team,

We're attempting to create some VMs on XCP-ng using this provider.
However when we create the VMs they stay powered off after successful creation.
We would also like to retrieve the IP from the machine after it's started so we can provision the machine automatically using other tools.
Our custom template already has xe-guest-utilities installed.

main.tf

data "xenserver_sr" "sr" {
  name_label = "Local storage"
}

data "xenserver_network" "network" {}

resource "xenserver_vm" "vm" {
  name_label       = "vm"
  template_name    = "Ubuntu Noble"
  static_mem_max   = 2 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024
  boot_mode        = "uefi"

  vcpus            = 2
  cores_per_socket = 1
  sr_for_full_disk_copy = data.xenserver_sr.sr.data_items[0].uuid

  network_interface = [
    {
      device       = "0"
      network_uuid = data.xenserver_network.network.data_items[0].uuid,
    },
  ]
}

output "vm_out" {
    value = xenserver_vm.vm
}

outputs

Could you make sure the VM created by terraform can be booted up manually from XOA?

[HaroldVB]

Sorry for the late response, yes the VM can be booted manually from XOA. Since this is how we currently start all VMs
