fohdeesha Thank you for the input, we tried several different things but it seems that it might be the bug you mentioned at the end, and had everything just set with DHCP.
Question though, for centos machine how would you go ahead and select the nocloud datasource as I didn't see that portion on the CENTOS guide?
olivierlambert Perfect thank you. To reiterate one of my statements the user data box uses the Open Stack Cloud Drive option. For now I will try and see if by putting run commands on the user data box I can rewrite the network configuration on the vms.
I'm currently using the templates given by Hub but was wondering why they won't take the settings I'm putting in the network config drive box?
It's mentioned that I need the nocloud datasource for it to work, but user-data uses cloud-config. I tried to run dpkg-reconfigure and enabled no-cloud as well but nothing changed.
I followed this guide as well but still the same issue.

Sample of the config I'm using:

version: 1

Greetings I have followed the steps on how to create a cloud ready template. Whenenver I try to do some config changes from the XO User Data box, the changes do not apply. They only apply when I manually change it from the filesystem, and reboot.
I was trying even with the basic hostname:{name%} parameter that come with default to see if it can at least change the host name but nothing.
Any clue on what might be happening?
