[15:49] <blackboxsw> falcojr: you mentioned trying to validate rpms built on centos or other rpm-based distros this morning. Have you tried using ./tools/run-container centos/8 -p or ./tools/run-container rocky/8
[16:00] <falcojr> blackboxsw: yes, I created a rocklylinux/8 one using run-container
[20:54] <gschanuel> hello there! I'm really new to using cloud-init. I'm doing some tests with vsphere but I have limited permissions. For example, I cannot use OVA and OVF yet. 
[20:54] <gschanuel> So, i'm booting an Ubuntu Server 21.04 iso and added guestinfo.userdata with a base64 gziped cloud-config yaml. I get a message `waiting for cloud-init...` and after a while the ubuntu install menu is shown
[20:57] <gschanuel> If I understood correctly, the ova sets exactly the install settings (something like an autoformat iso)... 
[20:57] <gschanuel> so I guess I could install the iso and manually set the cloud-init configs to search for the guestinfo.userdata afterwards, revert the `manual_cache_clean` and convert this new vm to a template. Is that assumption correct?
[23:16] <gschanuel> I basically followed this guide (but with ubuntu 21.04) https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/manage/hybrid/server/best-practices/vmware-ubuntu-template but before shutting down I ran `cloud-init clean && cloud-init clean -l` and before converting to a template I ran `govc -e guestinfo.userdata="${USERDATA}"` with USERDATA
[23:16] <gschanuel> being `export USERDATA=$(gzip -c9 <userdata.yaml | { base64 -w0 2>/dev/null || base64; })`
[23:16] <gschanuel> what may I be missing here?
[23:20] <gschanuel> userdata.yaml is this https://gist.github.com/d245643b4c268e05b7f5479537ed91f6
