| vhosakot | Hi, I have a question about cloud-init in OpenStack images. | 02:21 |
|---|---|---|
| vhosakot | Anybody there ? :) | 02:26 |
| Odd_Bloke | smoser: Where are we on moving 0.7.x to git? I've got a few bzr branches hanging around that I'll hold off on merging/proposing if it's happening... | 11:23 |
| Odd_Bloke | smoser: Unrelately, the clear_dhcp and if_down_up methods in https://code.launchpad.net/~sankaraditya/cloud-init/topic-stanguturi-vmware-support/+merge/277933 make me a little nervous. Do you know if there is a "proper" way of doing this via the OS? | 12:23 |
| jgrimm | Odd_Bloke, fyi, smoser is out on vacation today, will be back tomorrow tho | 15:10 |
| Odd_Bloke | jgrimm: Ah, thanks. :) | 15:10 |

| vhosakot | Hi, would it possible for cloud-init to make a cloud instance join a multicast group by sending an IGMP join message while the instance boots ? This will enable cloud instances receive multicast traffic in a cloud. | 15:53 |
| vhosakot | Hello, anybody there :) | 16:07 |
| vhosakot | ? :) | 17:50 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: o/ | 17:53 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: \o/ | 17:53 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: cloud-init can run any scripts you give it, so you should be able to make it do that. :) | 17:53 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: So if you construct appropriate user-data and pass that in to the instance, it should work. | 17:54 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: ok, so I can use the --user-data or --user-data-file argument of cloud-init to make the instance send IGMP join message while it boots. Is this right ? | 17:54 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: Yeah, assuming that the cloud you're on will allow it etc. :) | 17:55 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: Yes, OpenStack's nova has --user-data argument that is passed to cloud-init when the instance boots | 17:56 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: Oh, yeah, I mean assuming that IGMP multicast-y things work. :) | 17:56 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: yes, there will be a multicast sender in our cloud that responds to the IGMP join message sent by the instance | 17:58 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: Cool! Good luck getting it set up! | 17:58 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: thanks! do you anyone that has tried/done multicast with cloud-init | 17:59 |
| Odd_Bloke | vhosakot: I don't know anyone who's tried it, no. | 17:59 |
| vhosakot | Odd_Bloke: wow, I'm the first one.. thanks! have a great day :) | 18:00 |
| Odd_Bloke | :) | 18:00 |
