What SDK are you using? I guess that the Python SDK. Did you try this
example:

That should be eough, at least in CentOS. Not sure about Ubuntu.

Note that you are using a quite old version of CentOS, so you may also
be using an old or buggy version of cloud-init. Did you try with latest
CentOS 7?

It does, in CentOS. Not sure about Ubuntu.
