Public bug reported: I use no-cloud to test the kernel in CI (I am maintainer of the bcache subsystem), and have been running it successfully under 16.04 cloud images from qemu, using a qemu command that includes:
-smbios "type=1,serial=ds=nocloud- net;s=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mlyle/mlyle/master/cloud- metadata/linuxtst/" As documented here: http://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/datasources/nocloud.html Under the new 17.10 cloud images, this doesn't work: the network comes up, but name resolution doesn't work-- /etc/resolv.conf is a symlink to a nonexistent file at this point of the boot and systemd-resolved is not running. When I manually hack /etc/resolv.conf in the cloud image to point to 4.2.2.1 it works fine. I don't know if nameservice not working is by design, but it seems like it should work. The documentation states: "With ds=nocloud-net, the seedfrom value must start with http://, https:// or ftp://" And https is not going to work for a raw IP address. ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
