[ovirt-users] Re: cloud-init reverting static network settings to DHCP on shutdown and restart

I think that before a shutdown / restart the cloud-init configuration is attached as there is /dev/sr1 visible. On shutdown / restart the config is no longer attached and there is seemingly an error related to not being able to find the data source: - 2018-06-06 15:15:11,297 - handlers.py[DEBUG]: finish: init-network/search-NoCloudNet: SUCCESS: no network data found from DataSourceNoCloudNet 2018-06-06 15:15:11,298 - util.py[WARNING]: No instance datasource found!
