in the meantime, you could try and do this manually by passing it via the vm payload field, which is mounted to the guest as a block device.
Thanks for the tip! I'm not familiar with this feature and I don't see any information about it in the Redhat RHEV documentation. All I've found is this:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/VMPayload
That suggests I can use the API to set this up, but is this possible via the administrative UI instead? Could I do this in a creation-time VDSM hook?
Thanks,
1. yes, you can do it via a hook using custom properties (that what the floppy/iso inject hooks were for, but they are now deprecated as the vm payload makes them redundant). 2. RHEV has this in 3.1. iirc, its only available via the API though[1] cloud init should be available from the UI via the runonce dialog.
