[ovirt-users] Cloud init and vms

[Artyom Lukianov]

Also, you need to be aware of the fact that the engine applies the
cloud-init configuration only when you start the VM first time. So the
scenario must be:

   1. Create a VM for template
   2. Install and enable on it cloud-init and seal it
   3. Make template from the VM
   4. Make new VM from the template and fill all relevant cloud-init
   parameters
   5. Start the VM

If you do not sure if the VM attached the cloud-init file you can check VM
devices via # virsh -r dumpxml <vm_id_or_name>
