> I specifically left the old functionality, so the users can choose whether to use the script you mentioned, or the cloud-init's native functionality. So this code will not break the script functionality. > > Regarding the "the username can be changed in the script (by default it uses root)": cloud-init supports custom usernames too, it is a separate parameter in the cloud.cfg that is set to "ubuntu" in Ubuntu cloud image. > thanks @phsm it looks good > I think the main issue with the cloud-init `set_password` module is that it was meant to set the _initial_ password for the VM, hence the default "force changing the password on the first login" behavior. If the need arises, the PR to cloud-init can be made for it to compare the cached password with the password in the config drive ISO, and change user's password if needed. yes. if the vm password is reset in cloudstack ,how to reset the user password in the VM via cloud-init ? please consider that the vm is not accessible by user (for example user has forgot the password), so no changes can be made before resetting the password -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
