Hello all, So, I'd like to talk about a behavior that's impacting some customers running RHEL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1593010
I've been discussing this issue with Ryan Harper and Ryan Mccabe, and all the possibilities I posted on that bugzilla are basically the result of those discussions. tl;dr: The problem consists in resetting the network configuration to default whenever the CD image used is removed, hence the data source is removed and a new instance-id is generated. Besides persisting the configuration after removing the data source, customers also want it to change whenever a new data source is plugged in. 1) Passing argument on kernel line is not an option because we can't change what's inside customer's vm. 2) Using `manual_cache_clean' is not an option because in this case customer will have to manually clean the cache when a new data source is plugged. I'd like to reach out on this mailing list and hear your opinions before I start to code a solution for this. Is there any other option left that could comply with this corner case? Attach data source and persist instance-id until a new data source is plugged?
