I believe one of the main features of cloud-init is to provide user data to the machine at boot time [1]. This functionality did not work for me with the current (0.7.2) version of cloud-init in debian (they work in ubuntu) but was restored by the proposed patch [2]. This functionality is useful in EC2 as well as openstack.On 07/08/2013 06:16 PM, Juerg Haefliger wrote:On 07/06/2013 08:18 PM, Thomas Goirand wrote:Right now we have cloud-init in backports and testing/Jessie (yay! Well done Thomas, Jakub and Charles).Thanks, but unfortunately, it is still waiting for FTP masters approval.It seems I was wrong, cloud-init really is in backports already! :) I wonder though why it still doesn't show on packages.debian.org.I was not able to use that version of cloud-init (from jessie) successfully.That's what I used and backported. What functionality didn't work for you? For me everything was working: - ssh key was added in /home/debian/.ssh/authorized_keys2 - hostname was set correctly - HDD was resized as expected Am I missing something? What functionality are we missing because lacking of these init scripts?
