Hello, I followed instructions at http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration It works fine for Fedora, but it not works properly for Centos 6.5 and 7 (for example network settings changed, hostname only in one of them, system start waiting for password in 6.5 etc.) - which are most common distros for us. It seems to be problematically (by design ?) at future. So - is another alternative of cloud-init (maybe with more coding and configuring) for automatically assign IP settings, hostname and root password? Thanks, Jiri

Hello, so, first for Centos 6.5. I made a template with steps from http://www.ovirt.org/Quick_Start_Guide: touch /.unconfigured rm -rf /etc/ssh/ssh_host_* After starting system created from my template it stops on "set new root password", I must set something (may be empty) and then shows up authconfig-tui, must confirm. After this cloud-init set everything ok - network, hostname, authorized_keys, root password. To have network working, must set network in "Initial Run" to eth1, not eth0. So it is good to remove ifcfg-eth0 from template. But works. Bad thing is that stop on root password and authconfig-tui. I think it is some issue with unconfigured state, not with cloud-init - but don't know. cloud-init-0.7.4-2.el6.noarch from epel, don't know simple way to downgrade. cloud-init logs: http://pastebin.com/v7FS8hpj http://pastebin.com/MnnTzKAq Thanks, Jiri Dne 22.9.2014 v 16:30 Shahar Havivi napsal(a):

Hello again, Centos 7: Everything works except network needs manually restart to work (but config is done by cloud-init). Is workaround to send custom command through cloud-init to restart network service? It also neither do not setup resolv.conf nor add DNS settings to ifcfg-eth0 (workaround may be to let this settings in ifcfg-eth0 filled from template) Jiri Dne 22.9.2014 v 16:30 Shahar Havivi napsal(a):

I spent a day with testing and went into two situations: - cloud-init set up everything except root password - cloud-init set up everything except network What does it mean? Let me explain: When I remove HWADDR from ifcfg-eth0 in template, everything works (network, ssh with key), but can't login through console or ssh with password. So I think it is not set. When I forgot to remove HWADDR line, root password is set but network not work ofcourse. I added custom command with runcmd to remove this line and restart network - everything works. Stupid hack ... So root password cloud-init setting depends on network settings. Is this cloud-init bug? Jiri Dne 23.9.2014 v 8:30 Shahar Havivi napsal(a):

I assume that we are talking about cloud-init 0.7.2, What version of oVirt are you using? I will try to reproduce it with rhel/fedora. Shahar.
