Blank CloudInit Drive from Xen Orchestra
-
Hi all,
Been trying for a few days to get Xen Orchestra's cloud-init implementation to work with the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Cloud image provided by Canonical to no success. This same image has worked previously with cloud-init under Proxmox.
Whatever I enter into either the User or Network config fields is not applied, even using the "SSH Key" method. I have tried this both while the VM is configured to look for only NoCloud as well as with al sources accepted.
Under inspection, I can see that the additional drive is seen in the VM (xvdb) but it appears to be completely empty. If I try to mount it, there is no vFAT FS detected.
Can anybody advise if there are packages that need to be installed in dom0 to accomodate creating the config drives correctly?
Thanks,
Maxwell -

MaxwellQuick amendment, this is with all the currently newest version of XCP-ng and XO from sources (built last week).

Hi,
That would have been my questions
Are you sure your XO is rebuilt correctly? Please try with XOA on
latestrelease channel and report
-
@olivierlambert Hi Olivier, sure thing, I haven't seen any other stability issues with the build, but will give XOA a try now.
-
@olivierlambert anddd what would ya know, it works with XOA! Man not the first time I am wishing I could afford to run XOA in the lab...
Any pointers as to where I can look at my build to try and rectify this?
-
Remove the XO folder, and rebuild from scratch

@olivierlambert Thanks for your help Olivier, rebuilt my XO install and looks like I may have missed a dependency first time round, its now working.
Just wanted to check something with you, once the VM has booted once with the config drive attached, the config drive can then be disconnected and deleted, right? -
Yes

@olivierlambert Amazing. Thank you for your help sir!
