| boolman | how can I force netplan on cloudinit? | 11:25 |
|---|---|---|
| meena | boolman: https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/network-config.html#network-configuration-outputs it's default on Ubuntu 17.10 | 11:33 |
| meena | boolman: but you can override the default: https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/network-config.html#network-output-policy | 11:34 |
| meena | of course, that would require that the binaries be in place… and that netplan can render for whatever the backend is, that your OS actually supports. | 11:34 |
| meena | Netplan currently works with these supported renderers | 11:35 |
| meena | NetworkManager | 11:35 |
| meena | Systemd-networkd | 11:35 |
| shibumi | Hi can somebody explain me this error here? udevadm test-builtin net_setup_link /sys/class/net/lo fails with No such file or directory | 13:08 |
| shibumi | The error message is at this location: https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/blob/13e82554728b1cb524438163784e5b955c7c5ed0/cloudinit/net/netplan.py#L256 | 13:08 |
| Odd_Bloke | shibumi: What version of cloud-init are you using, and on what distro? | 14:20 |
| rharper | shibumi: looks like your OS/kernel does not provide a loopback network interface | 15:23 |
| boolman | im trying to get cloudinit to work on vmware, but it works like 1/10 of the time. other times it either doesnt even get the user/metadata or configures the network to late. different hosts each time. seems so random. | 15:27 |
| boolman | should mention that im deploying with terraform | 15:28 |
| rharper | boolman: hi; vmware + cloud-init is not in a great spot; this is a known issue; there are some discussions with VMWare cloud-init devs to work on supporting user-data, network-config and vmware customization; | 15:37 |
| boolman | rharper: okey, so just not do it is the current solution? | 15:41 |
| rharper | boolman: well it depends on what "mode" you're using; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1806133 | 15:50 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1806133 in cloud-init (Ubuntu) "OVF does not read user-data if vmware IMC is used." [Medium,Confirmed] | 15:50 |
| shibumi | Odd_Bloke: arch linux | 15:51 |
| shibumi | Odd_Bloke: newest release | 15:51 |
| shibumi | Odd_Bloke: cloud-init 19.3 | 15:51 |
| shibumi | Odd_Bloke: maybe a bug in the new arch linux implementation for cloud-init? | 15:51 |
| shibumi | rharper: it should..i have no idea what's going on | 15:51 |
| rharper | shibumi: me neither; I don't know what creates the initial loopback interface; I was fairly certain the kernel itself does this; | 15:53 |
| rharper | which made me wonder what kernel was in use | 15:53 |
| boolman | rharper: not sure what you mean, Im deploying a regular vm template, without vmware customization | 15:55 |
| rharper | OVF has many places it "fetches" configuration from | 15:55 |
| boolman | im not using OVF atleast | 15:56 |
| rharper | then IMC ? | 15:56 |
| boolman | Im not following, Ive manually installed a ubuntu bionic from cd, installed cloudinit and vmware's cloudinit guestinfo package. converted to template. | 15:57 |
| rharper | if you like, you can run cloud-init collect-logs and the tarball will have info we look at what's going on; it may be a known issue, or it could be a new one | 15:57 |
| rharper | when you boot the template cloud-init needs a datasource; on VMware platforms, this is typically OVF; | 15:58 |
| boolman | https://github.com/vmware/cloud-init-vmware-guestinfo | 15:58 |
| rharper | the platform provides to the guest 1) an iso OVF format 2) OVF in the filesystem of the guest 3) vmware customization config in the filesystem of the guest | 15:58 |
| rharper | we don't support that | 15:58 |
| rharper | it's out of tree; if VMware wanted to contribute that to cloud-init; that'd be nice | 15:59 |
| rharper | it has 9 issues; maybe one of them is relevant ? | 15:59 |
| rharper | https://github.com/vmware/cloud-init-vmware-guestinfo/issues/5 | 15:59 |
| boolman | no that doesnt seem relevant to my problem | 16:01 |
| johnsonshi | Hi guys, I am trying to configure an Azure VM so that its per-boot scripts would persist across 'cloud-init clean -lr' invocations. I have dropped some scripts into /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot, but when I issue cloud-init clean -lr, the scripts are not executed, and when I look into the per-boot scripts directory, it is empty. The cloud-init.log file also makes no mention of executing any script within the per-boot directory. That means | 18:35 |
| johnsonshi | somehow per-boot directory gets cleaned when cloud-init clean -lr runs. | 18:35 |
| johnsonshi | The docs mention that "Any scripts in the scripts/per-boot directory on the datasource will be run every time the system boots." does that mean that in order to configure per-boot scripts, I would need to configure the datasource (which in this case is the Azure datasource (since this is an Azure VM)) | 18:36 |
| Odd_Bloke | johnsonshi: `cloud-init clean` cleans out all of /var/lib/cloud (by design). Perhaps changing your process to put those scripts in place _after_ you clean would work? | 18:52 |
| johnsonshi | Odd_Bloke: I have just discovered that the write_files module runs first (during the first stage of cloud-init), while the per-boot module runs in the last module. I will try that out instead. Thanks! | 19:00 |
| johnsonshi | Odd_Bloke: Perhaps I could get write-files to write the scripts into the per-boot directory. | 19:01 |
| Odd_Bloke | I believe that would work. | 19:19 |
| Odd_Bloke | blackboxsw: rharper: The updated release process doc/script: https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/uss-tableflip/pull/37 | 21:20 |
| Odd_Bloke | blackboxsw: Can you point me at the template Trello board? I want to be 100% sure I'm modifying the correct thing. :p | 21:21 |
| blackboxsw | Odd_Bloke: https://trello.com/b/QQYFXpsA/template-sru-cloud-init-xy | 21:21 |
| Odd_Bloke | Thanks! | 21:21 |
| blackboxsw | no prob | 21:21 |
