[05:29] hi~ [06:05] do we have any audio discuss? [06:26] what tool dou you use [11:41] hm, is there no support for slaac in network config v2? [13:24] rough, so I'm not sure how to configure networking on a vsphere cluster because it doesn't let me provide meta-data via the vapp for an ubuntu cloud image ovf/ova [14:36] how is meta-data supposed to be passed on local vsphere clusters? [14:37] we have machines that basically only have slaac on their network segment, and deploying them via terraform times out, because the ubuntu cloud image wants to do DHCP by default AFAIU. [14:38] Continuing on from #ubuntu-server [14:38] I just looked at https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources.html [14:39] AIUI, both meta-data and user-data must come from one of those sources. [14:39] cloud-init logs will tell you which was used in your case I think. [14:39] Maybe https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/ovf.html ? [14:40] /run/cloud-init/ds-identify.log might be useful [14:40] https://paste.lossy.network/J6KA [14:42] the referenced ovf env comes via cdrom https://paste.lossy.network/6KWA [14:42] i stripped the user-data because it doesn't really matter [14:46] I think you're using the OVF datasource then, and your question can be refined to asking how cloud-init does networking configuration when using the OVF datasource. [14:46] I don't know the answer to that, but I hope that helps. [14:47] I think the relevant code might be https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/tree/main/cloudinit/sources/helpers/vmware/imc [14:47] thanks for clarifying, that helps somewhat. [14:48] Looking at *nic* in that directory, it looks to me like the configuration is grabbed from the platform NIC configuration somehow, but I don't see anything specific there about enabling/disabling DHCP. [14:48] But I am just speculating, to be clear - this is beyond my current knowledge. [15:08] looks like I need to somehow build upon https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/691 [15:08] Pull 691 in canonical/cloud-init "[VMware] Support cloudinit raw data feature" [Merged] [17:23] I'm looking for help finding a robust and clean solution for a problem related to systemd-resolve, GCE, cloud-init, and bad domain naming. I have ubuntu 20.04 servers in a GCP project that is DNS peered with a project that is providing .local TLDs for some internal names. systemd-resolve won't even try to resolve .local TLDs via the name server unless it's added as a search domain. I've tried a couple of different confi [17:24] config changes but I can't seem to find a way to add a search domain without knowing the interface name, which I'm not sure I can rely on when spinning up a bunch of cloud images. [20:37] bummer that needs-help-guy is gone [20:37] i was going to help. [20:37] my experience with .local domain is that nsswitch.conf editing can help [20:38] + hosts: files dns [NOTFOUND=return] [20:38] -files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns [23:05] smoser, i'm still around, i'll check that out
