Hi Paul, Thanks for your suggestion.
The cartridges in Amazon EC2 and OpenStack are configured using Puppet. We pass the puppet master IP to those cartridges and the agent will be executed by the init script. We need to do the same with vCloud. So, I'm thinking whether we can write user data to some file via the customization script and then read that from the init script. I think in summary, the requirement is same as you mentioned. Thanks!
