## Explanation of centos8-example.pkr.hcl
```hcl
packer {
required_plugins {
xenserver= {
version = ">= v0.3.2"
source = "github.com/ddelnano/xenserver"
}
}
}
```
this tells packer that it needs the `xenserver` plugin to run this script.
`version = ">= v0.3.2"` with a version higher than 0.3.2
`source = "github.com/ddelnano/xenserver"` found on github
* `source "xenserver-iso" "example" { } ` directs packer to configure an Artifact named example using the `xenserver-iso` builder
* `iso_url = "http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/centos/8.3.2011/isos/x86_64/CentOS-8.3.2011-x86_64-dvd1.iso" ` use the iso obtainable from this url
