Argument Reference⁠

The following arguments are supported:

region - (Optional) The region in which to create the server instance. If omitted, the region argument of the provider is used. Changing this creates a new server.
name - (Required) A unique name for the resource.
image_id - (Optional; Required if image_name is empty and not booting from a volume. Do not specify if booting from a volume.) The image ID of the desired image for the server. Changing this rebuilds the existing server.

Swap block device mappings have the following restrictions: source_type must be blank and destination_type must be local and only one swap disk per server and the size of the swap disk must be less than or equal to the swap size of the flavor. Changing this creates a new server.

Notes⁠

Multiple Ephemeral Disks⁠

For your information

Applicable only to Private Clouds

It's possible to specify multiple block_device entries to create an instance with multiple ephemeral (local) disks. In order to create multiple ephemeral disks, the sum of the total amount of ephemeral space must be less than or equal to what the chosen flavor supports.

The following example shows how to create an instance with multiple ephemeral disks:

resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "foo" {
  name            = "terraform-test"

  block_device {
    boot_index            = 0
    delete_on_termination = true
    destination_type      = "local"
    source_type           = "image"
    uuid                  = "<image-id>"
  }

  block_device {
    boot_index            = -1
    delete_on_termination = true
    destination_type      = "local"
    source_type           = "blank"
    volume_size           = 1
  }

  block_device {
    boot_index            = -1
    delete_on_termination = true
    destination_type      = "local"
    source_type           = "blank"
    volume_size           = 1
  }
}

Instances and Ports⁠

Neutron Ports are a great feature and provide a lot of functionality. However, there are some notes to be aware of when mixing Instances and Ports:

In OpenStack environments prior to the Kilo release, deleting or recreating an Instance will cause the Instance's Port(s) to be deleted. One way of working around this is to taint any Port(s) used in Instances which are to be recreated. See here for further information.
When attaching an Instance to one or more networks using Ports, place the security groups on the Port and not the Instance. If you place the security groups on the Instance, the security groups will not be applied upon creation, but they will be applied upon a refresh. This is a known OpenStack bug.
Network IP information is not available within an instance for networks that are attached with Ports. This is mostly due to the flexibility Neutron Ports provide when it comes to IP addresses. For example, a Neutron Port can have multiple Fixed IP addresses associated with it. It's not possible to know which single IP address the user would want returned to the Instance's state information. Therefore, in order for a Provisioner to connect to an Instance via it's network Port, customize the connection information:

resource "openstack_networking_port_v2" "port_1" {
  name           = "port_1"
  admin_state_up = "true"

  network_id = "0a1d0a27-cffa-4de3-92c5-9d3fd3f2e74d"
}

resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "instance_1" {
  name = "instance_1"

  network {
    port = openstack_networking_port_v2.port_1.id
  }

  connection {
    user        = "root"
    host        = openstack_networking_port_v2.port_1.fixed_ip.0.ip_address
    private_key = "~/path/to/key"
  }

  provisioner "remote-exec" {
    inline = [
      "echo terraform executed > /tmp/foo",
    ]
  }
}

Instances and Networks⁠

Instances almost always require a network. Here are some notes to be aware of with how Instances and Networks relate:

In scenarios where you only have one network available, you can create an instance without specifying a network block. OpenStack will automatically launch the instance on this network.
If you have access to more than one network, you will need to specify a network with a network block. Not specifying a network will result in the following error:

* openstack_compute_instance_v2.instance: Error creating OpenStack server:
Expected HTTP response code [201 202] when accessing [POST https://example.com:8774/v2.1/servers], but got 409 instead
{"conflictingRequest": {"message": "Multiple possible networks found, use a Network ID to be more specific.", "code": 409}}

If you intend to use the openstack_compute_interface_attach_v2 resource, you still need to make sure one of the above points is satisfied. An instance cannot be created without a valid network configuration even if you intend to use openstack_compute_interface_attach_v2 after the instance has been created.

Importing instances⁠

Importing instances can be tricky, since the nova api does not offer all information provided at creation time for later retrieval. Network interface attachment order, and number and sizes of ephemeral disks are examples of this.

Importing basic instance⁠

Assume you want to import an instance with one ephemeral root disk, and one network interface.

Your configuration would look like the following:

resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "basic_instance" {
  name            = "basic"
  flavor_id       = "<flavor-id>"
  key_pair        = "<key-pair-name>"
  image_id        = "<image-id>"

  network {
    name = "<network-name>"
  }
}

Then you execute

terraform import openstack_compute_instance_v2.basic_instance instance_id

Importing an instance with multiple emphemeral disks⁠

The importer cannot read the emphemeral disk configuration of an instance, so just specify image_id as in the configuration of the basic instance example.

Importing instance with multiple network interfaces.⁠

Nova returns the network interfaces grouped by network, thus not in creation order. That means that if you have multiple network interfaces you must take care of the order of networks in your configuration.

As example we want to import an instance with one ephemeral root disk, and 3 network interfaces.

Examples

resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "boot-from-volume" {
  name            = "boot-from-volume"
  flavor_id       = "<flavor-id>"
  key_pair        = "<key-pair-name>"
  image_id        = "<image-id>"

  network {
    name = "<network1>"
  }
  network {
    name = "<network2>"
  }
  network {
    name = "<network1>"
    fixed_ip_v4 = "<fixed_ip_v4>"
  }

}

In the above configuration the networks are out of order compared to what nova and thus the import code returns, which means the plan will not be empty after import.

So either with care check the plan and modify configuration, or read the network order in the state file after import and modify your configuration accordingly.

A note on ports. If you have created a neutron port independent of an instance, then the import code has no way to detect that the port is created idenpendently, and therefore on deletion of imported instances you might have port resources in your project, which you expected to be created by the instance and thus to also be deleted with the instance.

Importing instances with multiple block storage volumes.⁠

We have an instance with two block storage volumes, one bootable and one non-bootable. Note that we only configure the bootable device as block_device. The other volumes can be specified as openstack_blockstorage_volume_v3

resource "openstack_compute_instance_v2" "instance_2" {
  name            = "instance_2"
  image_id        = "<image-id>"
  flavor_id       = "<flavor-id>"
  key_pair        = "<key-pair-name>"

  block_device {
    uuid                  = "<image-id>"
    source_type           = "image"
    destination_type      = "volume"
    boot_index            = 0
    delete_on_termination = true
  }

   network {
    name = "<network-name>"
  }
}
resource "openstack_blockstorage_volume_v3" "volume_1" {
  size = 5
  name = "<volume-name>"
}
resource "openstack_compute_volume_attach_v2" "va_1" {
  volume_id   = openstack_blockstorage_volume_v3.volume_1.id
  instance_id = openstack_compute_instance_v2.instance_2.id
}

To import the instance outlined in the above configuration do the following:

terraform import openstack_compute_instance_v2.instance_2 instance_id
import openstack_blockstorage_volume_v3.volume_1 volume_id
terraform import openstack_compute_volume_attach_v2.va_1
instance_id/volume_id

A note on block storage volumes, the importer does not read delete_on_termination flag, and always assumes true. If you import an instance created with delete_on_termination false, you end up with "orphaned" volumes after destruction of instances.
