[00:29] <powersj> blackboxsw: may also consider running with lxc from ppa
[00:29] <powersj> I know smoser and I both run artful, which will have latest and greatest, and base version in xenial probably isn't totally going to have everything
[00:30] <powersj> ppa: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-lxc/+archive/ubuntu/stable?field.series_filter=xenial
[00:53] <smoser> powersj, blackboxsw yeah, i figured i might need to address different lcx versions.
[01:35] <redcavalier> blackboxsw, good evening. Were you able to have a look to the cloud.cfg I posted?
[02:03] <blackboxsw> redcavalier:thanks for posting. hmm ok looks like you have resizefs as you mentioned. only difference I'm seeing from ubuntu related to disks  is you are missing a  disk_setup in your cloud config modules... but I don't think that alone would preclude you from resizing
[02:03] <redcavalier> yea, it has always worked before the upgrade, with that cloud.cfg
[02:05] <redcavalier> Hence why I think there's definitely a bug there and why I assumed it is related to the vendordata issue, but it could also be an error that'S not logged
[02:05] <redcavalier> I mean, do you think the vendordata issue could prevent growpart from running?
[02:07] <blackboxsw> redcavalier: I talked w/ smoser today about your bug, we're hoping to work out a fix for that in earnest  next week. At least the vendordata_raw will be sorted in 17.1+ shortly (and you'd be able to pull our daily builds from copr).
[02:08] <redcavalier> Ah, then we'll see if that'S the cause or if there's something else
[02:08] <blackboxsw> redcavalier: I don't believe that is really breaking the resize is the thing..... I just don't see that module even running on your attached cloud-init.log
[02:08] <blackboxsw> that's what baffles me. I see other cloudinit modules running
[02:09] <redcavalier> It's definitely running at least once though. Let me give you a small explanation regarding what we do.
[02:09] <blackboxsw> maybe you could share some of your #cloud-config with us/me in pvt message ? I'll share with scott as we look this over on Monday. my email is chad.smith@canonical.com if there is stuff you want to keep semi-private. (or you could redact some of the content)
[02:10] <redcavalier> We actually have a VM that's constantly running. To create (and update) our images, we make a snapshot of it's volume, convert it to image and then boot up on a new volume.
[02:11] <redcavalier> Our latest image is still on the older cloud-init, so the VM does resize on first boot. I do believe that should at least be in the log. It's not though.
[02:12] <redcavalier> We don't even erase the log from the previous VM when we create an image, so the file is already there when the VM boots.
[02:12] <redcavalier> I don'T really get it.
[02:13] <redcavalier> Anyhow, I'll send you a copy of our cloud-init by email, it'll give you a good idea.
[02:14] <blackboxsw> on 17.1 you could run "cloud-init analyze show" on the commandline and it'd give a simple breakdown of what modules ran from your cloud-init.log files and how long it took. I'd also expect to see growpart and resizefs in that report
[02:15] <blackboxsw> thanks for the additional context. it'll help us understand what might be happening
[02:15] <redcavalier> ah, there might be a thing I forgot to say also
[02:15] <redcavalier> The cloud-init daemon is crashed
[02:15] <redcavalier> Like, the daemon doesn'T start
[02:16] <redcavalier> again, the only error it gives in journalctl is that it can'T retrieve the vendordata, but I think there's something else
[02:17] <blackboxsw> hrm. ok I'll poke at centos7 again tonight/this weekend just to make sure we can run. we test all the time in lxc w/ centos, but I'm not sure how frequent our coverage is on openstack
[02:18] <redcavalier> Ok. All this makes me wonder if there's something wrong in our user data
[02:23] <blackboxsw> it also might be worth a quick check of the pickled datasource object
[02:23] <blackboxsw> redcavalier: something like this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/25735734/
[02:24] <blackboxsw> just find the pkl filename under /var/lib/cloud
[02:24] <blackboxsw> then you can pkl load it and check userdata  userdata_raw vendordata vendordata_raw on your instance
[02:24] <blackboxsw> make sue it has the content you expect
[02:25] <redcavalier> Alright, I'll do that. Not right now because it'S Saturday morning here, but I'll have a look monday
[02:26] <redcavalier> Just sent the email
[02:27] <blackboxsw> thanks again. we'll be in touch
[02:27] <blackboxsw> yeah, it's Friday night, gotta get some movie time in ;)
[02:27] <blackboxsw> have a good weekend
[02:30] <redcavalier> You too! see ya next week
