Build OVA workflowto use AL2023 #147Description
This PR aims to change the base OS for the Wazuh OVA from Amazon Linux 2 to Amazon Linux 2023.
This change required many other changes in the OVA creation process.
Previously, the OVA creation process consisted of creating an instance in AWS, installing Wazuh and making some configurations and using AWS EC2 to export that instance as an OVA. This meant that we could completely forget about this process since it was automated by AWS.
When changing the base operating system, AWS EC2 does not support the export of instances with Amazon Linux 2023 so we had to implement the process by hand.
In the OVA Spike issue this problem and possible solutions were fully developed and explained.
The solution we have chosen is to create an instance of type metal in AWS EC2 and within this create a VM in which Wazuh is installed and the relevant configurations are made. This VM is then exported with VirtualBox as OVA and uploaded to the S3 bucket from the Github Actions runner.
The step-by-step process of each day is described in the related issue.
Tests
Tests were made in these two workflow runs:
Resulting in the OVA successfully created and tested as can be seen in the following screenshots:
