** Description changed:
- The ConfigDrive datasource fails to provision on ConfigDrive capable
- clouds that use "interfaces" rather than "network-interfaces". This is
- only seen on 12.04.
+ [SRU Justification]
- meta_data.json:
+ [IMPACT] The ConfigDrive datasource fails to provision on ConfigDrive
+ capable clouds that use "interfaces" rather than "network-interfaces".
+
+ This is only seen on 12.04. As a result, some Cloud providers are unable
+ to use Cloud-init to provision Ubuntu Instances
+
+ [FIX] The fix is simple: allow for both "network-interfaces" and
+ "interfaces" when reading the meta-data.
+
+ [REGRESSION POTENTIAL] This is a mild-risk change. CloudDrive has been
+ implemented by many Cloud Providers and this change implements a new set
+ of behavior. The most likely scenerio is that Cloud-init on Ubuntu 12.04
+ will start work where it has been broken previously.
+
+ [TEST CASES 1] :
+ 1. Build new images from proposed
+ 2. Boot image on Cloud w/ "instance" as the metadata value
+ 3. Boot image on Cloud w/ "network-interfaces" as the metadata value
+ 4. Check to make sure that cloud-init provisioned with out errors
+
+ [TEST CASE 2]:
+ 1. Build existing Ubuntu image on ConfigDrive provisioned cloud
+ 2. Check for any errors in the logs
+ 3. Upgrade cloud-init
+ 4. Reboot and check for errors in logs
+ 5. Create a new instance from existing instance
+ 6. Check for errors in the log.
+
+
+ The following meta_data.json is from an instance showing the problem:
{
"domain": "foobar.com",
"files": [
[]
],
"hostname": "utl-precise-0904-88f2e9",
"meta": {
"dsmode": "net"
},
"name": "utl-precise-0904-88f2e9",
"network_config": {
"content_path": "/content/interfaces"
},
"public_keys": {
"177313": "<REDACTED FOR READABILITY>"
},
"uuid": "9ba148b1-74d2-7f3f-2e8d-68746513d09f"
}
** Summary changed:
