Hello all,
I'm trying to use Cloud-Init to provision network configuration on a VM in
VMware using OpenSuse 15.2 and Cloud-Init 20.2 (the latest version of
cloud-init supported by OpenSuse). The VM is itself created by Terraform,
Terraform passes in the correct VMWare guestinfo variables (guestinfo.metadata,
guestinfo.userdata) that contain the base64 encoded cloud-init config info.
First I discovered that network information can only be specified in
guestinfo.metadata, and then it turns out that this information must not be
specified in yaml, but in json format. So I specified the JSON information in
guestinfo.metadata for the VM.
Problem: no network configuration is carried out in OpenSuse by cloud-init, the
IP address for eth0 does not change (it remains set to DHCP). The
guestinfo.userdata config is applied correctly by cloud-init and works fine.
Question: Is there something I'm missing or forgetting to do?
Here are the guestinfo.metadata JSON contents:
{
"network-config": {
"version": 1,
"config": [
{
"name":"lo",
"type":"physical",
"subnets":{
"control":"auto",
"type":"loopback"
}
},
{
"name":"eth0",
"type":"physical",
"subnets":{
"type":"static",
"address":"10.150.86.170",
"netmask":"255.255.255.128",
"gateway":"10.150.86.1"
}
}
]
}
}
Thanks for any help,
