Created cloud config, but can't select it when creating a new VM.

You need to add the following 2 lines to /usr/lib/cloud-init/ds-identify at or around line 245 if your file is different than mine.
LABEL_FATBOOT=*) label="${line#LABEL_FATBOOT=}"; labels="${labels}${line#LABEL_FATBOOT=}${delim}";;The file diff /usr/lib/cloud-init/ds-identify.ORIGINAL is just a backup of the original file. You should do the same in case you need to roll back changes one day.
Here's the end result in my file (see line 245 where I added the above):
236 for line in "$@"; do 237 case "${line}" in 238 DEVNAME=*) 239 [ -n "$dev" -a "$ftype" = "iso9660" ] && 240 isodevs="${isodevs},${dev}=$label" 241 ftype=""; dev=""; label=""; 242 dev=${line#DEVNAME=};; 243 LABEL=*) label="${line#LABEL=}"; 244 labels="${labels}${line#LABEL=}${delim}";; 245 LABEL_FATBOOT=*) label="${line#LABEL_FATBOOT=}"; 246 labels="${labels}${line#LABEL_FATBOOT=}${delim}";; 247 TYPE=*) ftype=${line#TYPE=};; 248 UUID=*) uuids="${uuids}${line#UUID=}$delim";; 249 esac 250 done -
@MrMike Great, thanks. I'll try this out.
-
@eperez539 good luck
-
@MrMike nope, not working.
- Created VM
- Installed guest-tools
- Installed cloud init, cloud-initramfs-growroot
- Updated /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
- Updated /usr/lib/cloud-init/ds-identify with lines given above
- Created template
- Created new vm from template using cloud init config on XO
- New VM has nothing from the cloud init config...
I could see how you could tweak the /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg with the users, etc. But cloud.cfg should have minimal settings on it. All the settings and configuration should come from the cloud init config in XO.
-
Check if you can read the config file in the extra disk while inside the VM. If yes, it's clearly a cloudinit config issue
-
@olivierlambert I see the drive attached to the new VM but it is not mounted. After mounting, I can see the contents of cloud-init config and everything looks ok unless I missed something:

Also, tried the do the networking in different ways but nothing worked.
-
So double check cloudinit logs, so you'll know at boot what happened and why it didn't take your configuration into account
-
Same issue here, i'm not getting the NoCloud configuration loaded even if the disk is here, with right label but not mounting. When mounted i'm getting cloud-init files. No erro from the cloud-init side :

That's a question for @fohdeesha , he loves Cloudinit

May also be related to systemd ordering issue conflicting xe-daemon and cloud-init (cloud-init almost conflicting with everyone else) :

Same configuration is working on alpine made ready for cloud-init the same way. Not working on ubuntu 16.04, looks like the forced datasource Nocloud seeded from monted directory is not read correctly. -
@dr4s1l-0 @Dr4s1l-0 you will not see the config drive mounted in your system, cloud-init only mounts it temporarily very early on in the boot process, copies the found config files off of it, and unmounts it. Mounting it manually will just cause more issues. You can probably see it being mounted early on in the logs in /var/log/cloud-init.log
Cloud-init has introduced a ton of bugs this year and has no documentation regarding them, it has been a nightmare to try and track down these issues - I have a support customer with the same issue on recent versions of ubuntu and I've gotten nowhere. At this point I think it's best to take it up with the upstream project, cloud-init - from the XOA/XCP perspective we're doing everything we can, resulting in presenting a properly configured config drive - any issue after that is the cloud-init package
