Hi,

we made this solution for us:

We add a cloud-init script to the cloud image, before we add this to our templates.

In /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/, we create a file 98_runcmd.cfg with the following content:

write_files:

- content: |

network: {config: disabled}

path: /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg

permissions: '0700'

- content: |

#!/bin/bash

rm /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg

path: /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot/datasources.sh

permissions: '0700'

This should create the file /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg after first cloud-init run and then network config is never touched again.

Without disabling cloud-init completely, you are able for example to set a root password to login into VM console, when you have to debug something and can't login anymore to ssh.

We have password logins disabled by default over ssh.

We also remove /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/90_dpkg.cfg and set datasource_list to ["NoCloud", "ConfigDrive"] in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg

-> VM will reboot with this a way faster. Without it, cloud-init will look for too much different location to find a valid config.

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

Hi Ryan,

This behaviour reproduces for me as well with

ovirt-engine-latest-nightly-snapshot,
cloud-init-0.7.9-24.el7.x86_64,
Centos-7.4.1708 VM.

Can you comment?

Thanks

I have the same issue since some months. Since cloud-init doesn't sees
any configuration, applies the default, which is to use dhcp.

I don't remember if it is a bug of cloud-init or a misconfiguration,
but now i solved removing cloud-init package after the first boot.

In case you want redeploying, you can keep cloud-init and disable its
work by disabling the service:

touch /etc/cloud/cloud-init.disabled
