Hi, I hope you don't mind my intrusion into this thread. My name is Bruce Mathews. I work for Hewlett Packard in their Cloud Services organization. I recently joined this mailing list and was wondering, based on what you are trying to accomplish, if you had ever considered attempting the same operation in our Cloud. You can look here for further information:

Getting ready to roll out another set of updated AWS images. So this is a good time to have the conversation about cloud-init Firstly, what is the best version to go with ? I know there is a maintained cloud-init in EPEL but that seems to be 0.6.x based, whereas lots of people seem to be focusing on 0.7.x as the best rpm based distro supported option. thoughts ? - Kb -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list [email protected] http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list [email protected] http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
