cloud-init not setting gateway

Are there any known issues with cloud-init not setting the network gateway ? I'm trying to create a host with the ansible roles, all is Ok apart from network settings. Ansible code: - block: - name: Authenticate ovirt_auth: password: *** url: "https://***/ovirt-engine/api" username: admin@internal - name: "Create Virtual Machines" ovirt_vms: auth: "{{ ovirt_auth }}" clone: false cloud_init: custom_script: "touch /etc/cloud/cloud-init.disabled" dns_search: *** dns_servers: "*** ***" host_name: *** nic_boot_protocol: static nic_gateway: "***" nic_ip_address: "***" nic_name: eth0 nic_netmask: "***" nic_on_boot: true cluster: Default comment: "Ansible Created" name: "***" state: present stateless: false storage_domain: "***" template: CentOS7_1711_could_init timeout: 600 register: ovirt_vm always: - name: "Sign Out" ovirt_auth: ovirt_auth: "{{ ovirt_auth }}" state: absent I've also tried using the web-ui, again most 'things' get set but not the gateway which is a killer as I can only access the VM with remote console until I set the gateway.

Hello Brett, we have the same issue with RHEL 7.4. Our workaround is writing /etc/sysconfig/network file with the variable GATEWAY= so we have the variable set at next network activation.

There are several bugzilla items opened for this problem. The one for RH EL 7.4.z is this on QA https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1540094 Others: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1492726 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1539760 Gianluca

Thanks Luca, I'll give that a go with the custom_script option. Regards, Brett On 31 January 2018 at 08:55, Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto < lorenzetto.luca@gmail.com> wrote:
