You have been subscribed to a public bug: Hello,
This is a request to please backport this patch from the 1.4.1 agent: https://github.com/WindowsAzure/WALinuxAgent/commit/375f1ede38fd323c2560e7e21ba99ac50bc66acd Summary The Ubuntu images in the Windows Azure gallery (except for 12.10) all use cloud-init for provisioning. This means that WALA provisioning and the hostname monitor are disabled via /etc/waagent.conf. However, when a user runs 'waagent -deprovision' the agent will attempt to modify the 'send host-name' parameter dhclient.conf file to set the hostname to "localhost.localdomain". But with provisioning and the monitor disabled, the agent does not have a chance to reset this parameter to the proper hostname. So captured Ubuntu images will not register their correct DNS name with the DHCP server. In the Ubuntu images this behavior is not necessary since dhclient is already configured to send its hostname to the DHCP server. This patch makes the agent a bit smarter about this and leaves dhclient.conf alone if it sees that it is already configured to send it's current hostname to the DHCP server. ** Affects: walinuxagent (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Deprovision breaks iDNS registration when using cloud-init https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268050 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to walinuxagent in Ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
