| [16:43] <linuxgeek_> hey cloud-init | |
| [16:44] <linuxgeek_> i want to use the cloudinit feature, so as a first step i started reading cloudinit on the net | |
| [16:44] <linuxgeek_> got useful info | |
| [16:45] <linuxgeek_> i did a nova boot --flavor x --image xx --userdata /root/test.yaml testvm | |
| [16:46] <linuxgeek_> the content of the test.yaml is copied from here http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/examples.html#run-commands-on-first-boot | |
| [16:47] <linuxgeek_> now i logged into the instance | |
| [16:47] <linuxgeek_> and checked the /etc/hosts file | |
| [16:47] <linuxgeek_> it has not echoed the line | |
| [16:48] <linuxgeek_> any thoughts what i'm missing? | |
| [17:02] <JoshNang> hey, does anyone have time to review a nova spec? we'd like to add a json description of the network interfaces to configdrive/metadata service to make it more flexible. https://review.openstack.org/#/c/85673/ | |
| [17:03] <JoshNang> our use case is baremetal servers (openstack ironic) with bonded interfaces and vlans over those bonds, and be able to support debian/centos/windows more easily. we're more than happy to write the patches to make cloud-init use the new json :) | |

| [17:25] <harlowja> JoshNang i'll look it over | |
| [17:26] <harlowja> linuxgeek_ can u get the cloudinit log file, might have a reason why that didn't happen, /var/log/cloud-init.log (i think) | |
| [17:26] <harlowja> JoshNang on the cloudinit side, what did u think about using to write it in, https://fedorahosted.org/netcf/ ? | |
| [17:26] <harlowja> or other? | |
| [17:30] <harlowja> JoshNang any reason why not just to use that format that netcf takes as input? | |
| [17:30] <JoshNang> harlowja: i figured we'd have to hand code a lot of it. netcf looks like it'd make life a lot easier, at least for fedora/centos/etc, and maybe we can pitch in to help with adding .deb backends | |
| [17:31] <harlowja> damn irc client just crashed, JoshNang what did i miss, think i missed a line | |
| [17:32] <JoshNang> harlowja: openstack in general seems to be trying to moving away from xml. i don't have a strong opinion either way | |
| [17:32] <JoshNang> what you maybe missed: i figured we'd have to hand code a lot of it. netcf looks like it'd make life a lot easier, at least for fedora/centos/etc, and maybe we can pitch in to help with adding .deb backends | |
| [17:33] <harlowja> https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/netcf.git/tree/src/drv_debian.c :) | |
| [17:33] <harlowja> might just already work | |
| [17:34] <harlowja> so convert the xml format to json and be done, lol | |
| [17:34] <harlowja> or yaml, or plaintext | |
| [17:34] <harlowja> ha | |
| [17:35] <JoshNang> heh if i have to write a json to netcf gen, i'm sure i can come up with something | |
| [17:35] <JoshNang> plaintext could be fun :) | |
| [17:37] <linuxgeek_> harlowja, i do not find cloudinit directory or clound-init.log. will this be present when the image has cloudinit installed? | |
| [17:38] <harlowja> it should be, u should find a /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg that should have the config, if thats missing then that makes me wonder if cloudinit is installed at all | |
| [17:38] <harlowja> JoshNang anyway, thats just a nitpick, the format as long as its compatible would be great, then can just use netcf (which already seems to do most of what we want) | |
| [17:39] <harlowja> JoshNang when smoser gets back i'm sure he'll have other inputs, he wants to fix some of the current brokenness that is this stuff | |
| [17:39] <JoshNang> harlowja: sweet. i'll review their format and adjust as needed. | |
| [17:40] <JoshNang> harlowja: sounds good! more input is always helpful | |
| [17:40] <harlowja> JoshNang u might be interested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1153626 | |
| [17:40] <harlowja> which is where i think smoser wants to go (much more dynamic network config, apparently already done in ec2?) | |
| [17:41] <harlowja> maybe not for your spec, but something to think about | |
| [17:44] <linuxgeek_> i'll upload a ubuntu cloud image since they have cloudinit installed. so the cloud-init.log should have info if its a success or a failure? | |
| [17:47] <harlowja> linuxgeek_ typically yes, if not u can adjust cloud.cfg log levels | |
| [17:52] <JoshNang> harlowja: ooo interesting. i definitely want to see more dynamic network config in openstack (somewhat less useful in baremetal), so if this can help, ++ | |
| [17:52] <harlowja> ya, smoser (i believe on vacation until nexst week?) will have lots to say about that | |
| [17:52] <harlowja> ^ the BDFL of cloudinit, ha | |
| [17:52] <harlowja> i'm just BDFLjr :-P | |
| [18:02] <JoshNang> ahh :) | |
