cloud-init / nocloud plans #67
Comments
@smoser ping, any input here would be appreciated. Thanks! |
What would you like to see ? |
Basic network configuration would be a great start. My initial use case has to do with QEMU functional tests, where booting a guest defaults to using Fedora (but can easily use other distros). With emulation (that is, without KVM) this can be quite slow. There have been discussions on building/using custom lightweight distros for this purpose, but I believe CirrOS is well suited to that. If configuring the network stack was consistent across distros such as Fedora, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu and CirrOS, CirrOS would be the definitive choice for many scenarios. Then, the linked PR from the Kubevirt project apparently has the exact same perspective. Let me know if this makes sense to you. |
I think it would be great to support network configuration. I have no idea how to approach that, though. Ideas or patches welcome. |
I run cirros in qemu-kvm environment for testing openvswich bridge vlan/vlxan or other functions.
but it need much time to start, because it need connect
In this serverfault link have a way use But this requires a lot of extra work:
untar
list file
use
And i don't know how to change cirros image quickly, i use
Then I searched for other tina images, such as the popular Alpinelinux, which provided the nocloud image. However, the user of this image does not have a password by default, making it more difficult to test. This has trapped me in a dead cycle, forcing me to return to circos. So the current question is whether cirros can solve this problem through the following methods
|
I find the way here:proxmox-cirros
install vm

Are there any plans to bump cirros' support for cloud-init / nocloud beyond its current state? As far as I can tell, it currently supports a similar
meta-data
, but an executable onlyuser-data
.I understand that recreating cloud-init is not an option, but I just wanted to check if there are any plans in this area.
