Just to provide some more background info: for DMTF CIMI, I will be
pusing to standardize the EC2 approach, since it is the only one that
properly decouples the VM from the infrastructure; IOW, the standard
will hopefully mandate that each instance can access a web server at
http://169.254.169.254/ from which it can get the user data.
To add more background^2: OVF has the notion of an 'activation engine',
which includes passing some XML to the VM via a CD-ROM. Depending on
where OVF support is on the ovirt roadmap, we could support user data
injection that way.
