** Description changed: Binary package hint: cloud-init as described in bug 566792 . The uec instances time out on waiting for the metadata service well too early (in ~ 20 seconds). This needs to be increased so that they boot more reliably. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: cloud-init 0.5.10-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: User Name 2.6.32-305.9-ec2 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-305-ec2 i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Apr 28 14:27:01 2010 Ec2AMI: ami-2d4aa444 Ec2AMIManifest: ubuntu-images-us/ubuntu-lucid-10.04-i386-server-20100427.1.manifest.xml Ec2AvailabilityZone: us-east-1b Ec2InstanceType: m1.small Ec2Kernel: aki-754aa41c Ec2Ramdisk: unavailable PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: cloud-init + + ======== Begin SRU Information ======= + Impact: This bug shows up in UEC instances run when the UEC they are running on is under load. + How this has been addressed: The UEC instances depend on the metadata serviced provided by UEC. When the UEC is under high load, that meta data service may not be available immediately on instance boot. The previous version of cloud-init would wait only 10 seconds and then go on, causing failure. The changes here enable some debug output when that is occuring and wait for considerably longer (1050 seconds total) + Patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/lucid/revision/21?start_revid=21 + Regression Potential: The largest potential for regression that I can imagine is the case where 'cloud-init' is installed on a non-cloud instance. Previously, that would have resulted in delaying boot by 10 seconds and some python traces on the console. Now, the delay would be ~ 1050 seconds. There is no trivial way to determine "am I in the cloud", so solving this bug and avoiding problems is not easy. In general, the 'cloud-init' is a cloud specific package, not intended for local installation. + + TEST CASE: + * repeatedly launch instances. + * previously, failure would be seen by instance not being reachable to ssh and a message such as 'Failed to get instance data' in the console log + ======== End SRU Information =======
