Regularguy | Hey guys, I have a question about nocloud-net and the user-data and meta-data files. Pardon if I'm being so forward. | 15:53 |
---|---|---|
Regularguy | for the user data, Is there a option to specify to download a file named user.10 instead of the generic user-data? | 15:57 |
minimal | Regularguy: if you're referring to seed urls then it seems like the "meta-data" and "user-data" portions of the urls are hardcoded | 16:04 |
Regularguy | minimal: yes, that's what I was reffering to. Thank you! | 16:35 |
minimal | Regularguy: you only define the base url | 16:52 |
Regularguy | I figured, and nocloud will download user-data, meta-data, and vendor-data from the url. I was hoping to specify the files like file1 is user-data and file2 is meta-data. Thank you for confirmn, now I have a better direction | 16:54 |
minimal | Regularguy: those requested URLs don't have to be static content - you have a PHP/Python/whatever app generating the YAML on demand for those urls | 17:00 |
minimal | Regularguy: how/where would you have expected to define different URLs? | 17:01 |
Regularguy | minimal: I have multiple of preseeds of ubuntu 20 named diferently on one dir. my option is to have the files but in diferent sub dir for each "preseed" I now need. I was hoping to figure it out with out and modification, but that's ok. It's a pretty basic system. I will have to look at the yaml option if I expand further | 17:20 |
Regularguy | Thanks again! | 17:20 |
minimal | Regularguy: my point was how/where would you expect to define a unique url for each machine - if you're embedding it inside the (e.g. VM) image then why bother with cloud-init in the first place. Perhaps you expcect to put it on the cmdline, in which case how would you do that? manually? | 17:22 |
minimal | its a catch-22 - cloud-init's DataSource is where you would place per-machine information but how would you place per-machine information (i.e. urls) in order to be used by the DataSource? | 17:23 |
holmanb | Ephemeral v6 pr is up, including a cheeky integration test. | 22:15 |
minimal | holmanb: do other providers handle IPv6 via link-local address rather than DHCPv6? | 22:48 |
