[ovirt-users] 4.2 Cloud-init & VM Portal question

[Florian Schmid]

Hi, 

we use it in 4.1.7 and here it is working quite well. 
Before you create the template from the VM, we remove the VM Hostname in cloud-init tab. 

When we then build the template and create a VM from it, we only need to enter a name in general tab Name. 
It will then be auto fill in cloud-init tab VM Hostname 

Only one important thing I saw is, that you need to select the template before you enter a name. 

Sometimes my users complain about missing hostname in the VM, but actually, I every time have a look on cloud-init tab, if the hostname was filled in and I never had this issue.

Dear oVirt, 



I have created a template which includes cloud-init with user / timezone / ssh key / network defined. Intention is to allow regular users & VM Portal to create VMs using this template. 



Question that I have is; if possible, how can I arrange that vm name I fill in, is passed to cloud-init as vm hostname (as it is default when creating VM from Admin Portal)? Is it even possible and please if so, provide some guidance. 



not possible atm - it is a good point. Can you please open an issue on [ https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-web-ui/issues | https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-web-ui/issues ] 

thank you!
