Could-init on lxc

[murphyslaw]

Hello,

I noticed that lxc now supports cloud-init. Also suppliers now provide could-init compatible tarballs for containers.

Are there any plans to support this on Proxmox? I may want to contribute on such a project; do you have any pointers on how to approach this or do you have some initial code that someone has been working on?

This would be a nice feature making your product stand out, plus I want it .

Thanks!

Hi,

I did actually discuss this idea with a colleague recently you can open a feature request on our bugzilla [1] so that people can keep track of the idea, and others may voice their support/concerns.

the bugzilla link shows a patch is available but from what I can tell it isn't released yet, any updates on when this will be released?
