[14:26] <jpic> hi all, how to enable DataSourceVMWare in cloud-init on RHEL8? I have cloud-init with the default configuration in my VM template but spawning a VM results in having the template hostname, not the hostname in vSphere ...
[17:55] <janitha> jpic: The DataSourceVMware only consumes the userdata/metadata explicitly passed in, so whatever the hostname you specify in there is what will be applied. The DS does not have a way to query the hypervisor to to get the vSphere VM name (which I assume is what you mean by hostname in vSphere)
[18:01] <jpic> right, thank you janitha
