i have install utility already: manual change as below:
cloud-init log saying this:
/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg is the same with CentOS 7: they have defined module growpart already.
Problem related to CentOS 6 templates is similarly to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1327337
disk size is already increase but partition is not. After reboot, partition has show correct space.
cloud-utils package is 0.27-10
This bug is already fixed from version cloud-utils-0.27-16.fc24. However, we can not update from CentOS 6

This work for debian 9 but didn't work for debian 8. Can not reinstall dependencies library.
You also need to install cloud-utils en its missing dependencies from buster. Then it works fine
hi, thanks for the information. I follow the steps to update cloud-init RPM package to epel-release's 18.3, every things are working well expect change root password. After checking cloud-init.log, I found CentOS6 always locked root password(by inserting "!!" into the /etc/shadow) when first boot, and I have to run command "passwd -u root" to unlock it manually, and then change root password is working. I have tried many ways but not success to disable this first boot locking action. any one know how to disable it ? Thanks.
Hey guys,
This link for cloud-init 18 el6 x86_64 is reporting 404 : https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@cloud-init/cloud-init-dev/epel-6-x86_64/00785549-cloud-init/
Does anybody know a valid link or another way to get cloud-init new versions to work on CentOS 6?
Thank you,
EDIT
Since only CentOS 7 is there. I tried to create a workaround, not optimal but it worked for me to run cloud-init-18.5-3 on CentOS 6.

Hopefully, this can help anyone who's experiencing the same issue.

This worked perfectly to get the latest version of cloud-init running, but unfortunately didn't solve my underlying issue.
For the life of me I cannot work out why the newly deployed server sets is hostname to either the last octet of the IP or the PTR record but never the hostname that is specified in user-data.
Started another thread for that issue here: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/kvm-templates-cloud-init-not-applying-hostname.60626/
Did anyone here end up getting a fully functional Centos 6 cloud-init image?
What I've got so far is available for download here (486MB).
