[16:16] <elsonrodriguez> Is there a way to define an environment variable in cloud-init that is visible by all child processes?
[16:24] <smoser> elsonrodriguez, no. :-(. that woudl probably be usefu,
[16:25] <elsonrodriguez> yeah :(
[16:26] <elsonrodriguez> I'm one of those dopes behind a proxy
[16:27] <elsonrodriguez> Was just making sure I wasn't lying: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1089405/comments/13
[16:42] <jfcastro> hi all! how can I configure cloud-init to using a device as swap?
[16:42] <jfcastro> I saw that openstack do it but I'm trying to do manually without luck :(
[17:35] <larsks> smoser: for testing out cloud-init, how do I tell it "just read this file, don't try to contact a data source"?  Just using --file doesn't seem to do that.  I'm looking at a solution to https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1424710
[17:41] <smatzek> larsks:  When testing cc module changes I've modified cloud.cfg to say datasource_list: ['None']
[17:41] <larsks> smatzek: that seems reasonable.  Let me give that a shot...
[17:42] <smatzek> once you do that, the semaphores you need to delete to allow things to re-run will be under  /var/lib/cloud/instances/iid-datasource-none/sem
[17:42] <larsks> That I knew.  I was just looking for something like a --datasource cli option or something.  You're idea seems to work just grand, thanks.
[21:05] <larsks> Does anyone know if a 0.7.7 release is imminent?  We are discussing cloud-init packaging in RHEL and I would hate to get things into a distribution channel just before a new version drops.
