Subject: [ovirt-users] Network issues with oVirt 4.2 and cloud-init


We're using cloud-init to customize VMs built from a template. We're
using static IPV4 settings so we're specifying an IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway. There is apparently a bug in the current version of
cloud-init shipping as part of CentOS 7.4
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1492726) that fails to set
the gateway properly. In the description of the bug, it says it is
fixed in RHEL 7.5 but also says one can use
https://people.redhat.com/rmccabe/cloud-init/cloud-init-0.7.9-20.el7.x86_64.rpm
which is what we're doing.

When the new VM first boots, the 3 IPv4 settings are all set correctly.
Reboots of the VM maintain the settings properly. But, if the VM is
shut down and started again via the oVirt GUI, all of the IPV4 settings
on the eth0 virtual NIC are lost and
the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 shows that the NIC is now
set up for DHCP.

Are we doing something incorrectly?
