Ok. That's a pity. Where can I send a feature request ? FYi, I think the best would be to combine, both custom and generated one cloud-init file. Therefore, I could set some config in GUI and use custom part from a file.

Unfortunately, it won't work either. I did sth like this in my hookscript `sed -i '/cicustom:/c\\cicustom: user=local:snippets/cloudinit-$vmid' /etc/pve/qemu-server/$vmid.conf It overwrites old cicustom file from a vm config (which is called cloudinit-empty). But it does it after VM is started...

Hmm, I tried this and it seems like it stills try to acquire lock: system("qm set $vmid --skiplock --cicustom user=local:snippets/cloudinit-$vmid"); sleep 5; and I still get trying to acquire lock... can't lock file '/var/lock/qemu-server/lock-101.conf' - got timeout

Yeah, that's what I wanted to avoid. Manual step. :) I was hoping to just clone a VM in GUI, start and it is all ready. Is there maybe a some way to attach some script to clone procedure ? and attach empty cloutinit-$vmid file to newly cloned vm

Hmm, thats one option, however it would not work properly with a template in some cases. If I attach hookscript and clcustom to a template and then clone it , all new VMs, based on it, would use the same cicustom file. So everytime I start a new VM, this shared file would be edited. Therefore...

Hi, I have a problem with this kind of approach, I cannot edit already started VM. My code looks like this if ($phase eq 'pre-start') { # First phase 'pre-start' will be executed before the guest # ist started. Exiting with a code != 0 will abort the start print "$vmid is...

I am not sure what do you mean to load from a different URL. I set vm to use a cicustom from a snippet file. Wow, great thing, I did not know about hookscripts. I will try to add cicustom file snippet generation in pre-start phase. Hmm, but I guess I will have to store a cicustom snippet file...

Hmm I know these commands, but it would only give me a console way to pass this data. Not via GUI, like with simple clone feature available in Proxmox :/ and the best way IMHO would be with a custom and an autogenerated config merge with cloud-init.

Hmm, but I want to provide these data to the VM. My template VM is cloud-init ready image provided by Ubuntu/CentOS and I want set both hostname and additional user-data like puppet/apt configuration. Hostname, in auto-generated user-data, is set based on VM Name, and I would like to combine it...

Hi, Is it possible to somehow combine a custom cloud-init with an auto generated one ? I thought that maybe if I do not set values that are autogenerated in my custom file, I will get them from ones I set in GUI. For example in my cicustom file for user-data I set some puppet and apt config...

Bug report created: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2394

Ok, it seems like this is a bug only in GUI. I was able to do this from console, but there is a small error. It was unable to remove this cloudinit image from a source node. I found vm-191-cloudinit image and removed it manually.

Just to make it worse, I am not able to remove Cloud init Device from a VM, without stoping it. So this as a workaround is pretty terrible.

Hi, I am trying to do an online/offline migration of the VM, and I get an error when I have a cloud-init device attached. I read this thread https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/vm-live-migration-fails-when-cloud-init-image-is-attached.44485/ and I thought this issue was fixed. Is it suppose to...
