As per his instructions, logging this bug. We need to add 'cloud-init' dependency for 'open-vm-tools' service. This is how 'Guest Customization' works for the 'VMware' managed guests. 1. open-vm-tools service comes up and populates a 'customization' configuration file. 2. cloud-init service starts and waits for the 'customization config' file, reads it and applies the customization. (1) should start before (2). Else, (2) will just block itself and not find the config file. Everything was working fine. But due to recent 'systemd' changes done to 'cloud-init', 'cloud-init' service starts early in the boot process before 'open-vm-tools' service. Due to this, no customization actually happens. Need to add the 'cloud-init' dependency for 'open-vm-tools' service so that (1) always happens before (2). Logging a bug. Thanks Sankar.
