Windows guest VM with cloudbase init

I'll take a look.
 
Anyone get Server 2019 working?
I can pass the config to the drive but the config doesnt work, Had success with Win 10 + Server 16.
 
I tried to experiment on windows2008R2 but it was not successful. Is it not supported?
 
Any errors in the cloudbase-init.log?
 
Can't set the password automatically

yes I know about I use winrm to do that after its running
BTW I just upgarded my lab to Proxmox V6 and the cloud init works ( not sure about the password
OI assume the same issure though as windows needs a clear text password )

but no patches are needed so very cool

Hi where can I download Windows image?
 
Hello,Has anyone made cloudbase-init work in proxmox ve 6.0? I tried for a long time but all failed....I'm very frustrated because I don't seem to see hope for a patch yet......

You are right.
It doesn't set the password because of the encryption.
Too bad Proxmox doesn't fix this already.
Maybe you can release a patch for Proxmox 6.x meanwhile.
This will be appreciated.

For now, the password could not be set.
At least not in an easy way.
 
Dear fellow users,

I have made my own Windows Server 2019 image on Proxmox 6.1-7 however the only present issue is the automated setting of DNS domain.

Please bear in mind I am not trying to set automatic passwords due to the reasoning that it has been mentioned that it does not work previously in this conversation.

How may I get Cloudbase init to set the DNS domain or specify defaults for Windows?

My kindest regards
 
Did anyone fix "Cannot set the password in the metadata as it is not supported by this service"
I'm still getting it even though it's clearly a plaintext password, I can see it in the config drive
