Wouldn't the cloud-init information I configured in the initial run properties page of the virtual machine be unnecessary?
In that case - correct. Only the configuration you set in the run-once will be taken into account when you run it.

Do you mean that you can use cloud-init for the first normal startup of a virtual machine that has not yet been booted, and then you can't use cloud-init for subsequent normal startup?
Yes. This is for safety from overriding a configuration on future boots.
Is it possible to use cloud-init with the run-once boot option as long as the virtual machine has already been started? Yes, if you set it in run-once the payload will be included to the VM on boot, regardless if it booted already or not.

Hello, I have a question about cloud-init:
After installing vm, I installed cloud-init immediately, and enabled its four services, and then I can use cloud-init in the admin interface.
However, I don't know how cloud-init knows where to get the relevant information (such as host name, SSH secret key, etc.) that I configured on the admin interface ? For I haven't configured the data source for cloud-init.
Hi, The relevant information comes as a payload to the VM, a CD-ROM containing the data source.
Why it can works ?
Cloud-init detects the data source and configures the OS. Please note that once the VM booted, the only way to provide the cloud-init payload is by using Run-Once. For a VM that didn't boot, a regular run will work as well.

Thanks!
