Sounds great to me. Looking forward to that. In the mean-time should there be an attempt at getting something into essex (or not?) that may just be what the grid-dynamics people have done? Thoughts? -Josh On 2/15/12 1:25 PM, "Scott Moser" wrote: On Wed, 15 Feb 2012, Joshua Harlow wrote: > S

I don't think there's much I disagree with here. Libguestfs is useful for injecting "firstboot" scripts (scripts that run the first time a guest boots and then disable themselves). That seems simpler than the DHCP-based method you outlined, at least for guests that libguestfs can recognize. But

Sure that makes sense (less dependency on guest file-systems). Although one of my concerns was that I thought this config drive stuff was only in the openstack api and not in the EC2 one. So that limits the market there (especially as openstack really needs some love given to the EC2 stuff)? It s

Ya, it seems like guestfs and netcf are being worked on by RH (at least in some part). Maybe someone from there can chime in. It would be awesome to just use guestfs and something like "guestnetwork" (using netcf?) for network config or just have it be a part of guestfs. Josh On 2/14/12 2:56 PM,

Ok, so that sounds nice and would be ideal. But what is realistic? Is there some kind of OS agonistic interface format that exists? If there is that's great, lets us it! If there isn't what is plan B. Do we make one? Something like guestfs for networking would seem pretty nice :-P On 2/14/12 1

Nathan i forgot to mention that were actually running ubuntu as host, so we were thinking about a way of inject ips on Red Hat as guest, but without forcing any interfaces.template so Ubuntu guests can reside in the same hosts too. Maybe if we can merge the aditions to the mainline package. Thats

So is that in the openstack "mainline" or is that an add-on that fedora/RH/EPEL has done? Something in the "mainline" would be great (then there would be one solution and not X+1 solutions to this). I guess this goes beyond the networking injection and also applies to any other "adjustments" t

I know various companies/groups have hacked it in themselves. Guestfs just showed up in essex. But the networking part would seem equally important. Possible something like https://github.com/griddynamics/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/netcfg.py can get pulled in?? My only concern though is that
