cloud-init

hey guys, I'm working on extending current salt cloud module to support cloud-init (for qemu new vm's/clones) from a first look, looks quite simple, just add ide[n] config with the following for example: "ide0" : "local:101/vm-101-cloudinit.qcow2,media=cdrom" (this varies based on the next...

Hi I'm completely confused with the proxmox support for Cloud-init so hoping someone can help. I've not done very much cloud-init work but I did test it out a few months ago on some VM's in Parallels on my Mac. For that I pretty much had to create a meta-data file, a user-data file and then...

I am using cloud-init to set up some Ubuntu 18.04 VM's (uses netplan for net config) They are all configured using static IPv4 address like 192.168.0.x/24 The gateway is 192.168.0.254 The generated /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml file does not contain gateway4 attribute

Maybe not an issue, but I couldn't easily move a cloud-init drive from a local to a shared storage (for live migration) The workaround was just remove&recreate the drive, but the "move disk" button is just a bit easier.

Hey, I'm following the docs on creating a cloud-init template via cli, and ran into some errors. Maybe it's me, maybe others can check as well. USER@HOST: user with root privs on current pve /var/lib/vz/template/iso # wget...

I followed the instructions here and it worked as expected but I can't see the IP address assigned to the instance since it was assigned by DHCP. I can't SSH to this machine if I don't know the IP address. Obviously, accessing the console doesn't work. I ticked the "Qemu Agent" checkbox in the...

Greetings I'm testing cloud-init on a brand new Ubuntu 18.04 VM. My problem is that the IP of the VM and the GW are not on the same subnet (which is quite usual for a floating IP), so I guess the whole process of setting network fails. I can see the parameters in...

I'm a bit confused about what cloud-init options are supported by Proxmox. The 5.2 announcement blog post says: However, the cloud-init docs make no mention of configuring mount points or post install scripts. What am I missing?

Hello, I have tried a few images, i am currently trying CentOS 7 Generic Image and when it loads up, it will update cloud-init and the os and i cant login via the console even if i change the root password via Cloud-Init within proxmox. i have also disabled these in the cloud.conf ssh_pwauth...

Hello, There's a problem with cloud-init drive, when creating this drive you have the option to choose the image type as like normal disks (raw, qcow2 or vmdk) but when choosing type other than qcow2, (raw or vmdk), It will get ignored and pve will always create qcow2 format. What is the...

Greetings. I am trying to figure out a way to resize disks of cloud-init created clones. At the moment created VMs have just as much storage as the image. Note: I want to provision Centos 7 only VMs. If anyone can provide a different solution to provision centos VMs with custom disk space you...

Hi guys, I setup a 3-node experimental cluster with LVM on iSCSI (FreeNAS) as storage. Live migration fails when the CloudInit drive is attached but it works fine without the CloudInit drive. Is this normal? Live migration with the CloudInit drive attached gives this error...

Moin, Kann man irgendwo globale Cloud-init Defaults setzen und wird der cloud-init support in Zukunft noch ausgebaut? Was mir im Moment fehlt ist zb der qemu-guest-agent in den ubuntu cloud images. Da wäre es hilfreich eine Option zu haben die den agent via Cloud-init gleich installiert. Ich...

After reading the documentation at (https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#qm_cloud_init) I was able to start, access and restart the VM without problems, but I still had a question: In addition to the parameters reported in the manual, can I use other cloud-init parameters, such...

The docs for cloud-init are a little thin on the ground being such a new feature. What is the expected behaviour for this in proxmox? Should the cloud-init drive remain always connected? if so, after the machine is shut down and then started again, it fails with the error: qemu-img: Could not...

Hello I'm trying to use the Generic cloud image of Centos 7 and I would like to disable the login via SSH-Key, I can use a file cloud-config.yaml as user-data in proxmox ?

Hello, First of all, any ETA on cloud-init? It's very important to us as it simplifies deployment hugely. I understand there might be support in a "testing" branch. How could I play with that, any docs? Second, will Proxmox use configdrive for metadata? Thank you
