ACS uses a different system than configdrive. Userdata and metadata is saved on
a vrouter and can be queried from the instance with basic HTTP call. It is very
similar to AWS.
To save userdata you would use deployVirtualMachine or updateVirtualMachine call
Use this guide for details how format encode it:
http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/projects/cloudstack-administration/en/4.8/virtual_machines/user-data.html
Here it is an example how you would get VM ID and some random property from
metadata and userdata assuming userdata has propertyname:”propertyvalue” style
tag inside
if [[ $OS == "RHEL" || $OS == "CentOS" ]]; then
DHCPBASE="/var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-*.lease"
elif [ $OS == "Ubuntu" ]; then
DHCPBASE="/var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.*.leases"
fi

Hi,
Im testing out RancherOS in ACS and have a couple of issues.
First, it seems that RancherOS does not support cloudstack datasource for
meta/userdata but that I need to take with Rancher guys.
But, in openstack I can always use configdrive to get userdata to my vm.
Is it possible to use configdrive in acs? (i have'nt had any luck yet)
