ConfigDrive status
Hi,
I am interested in the ConfigDrive feature.
Before I potentially waste time on it, is anyone around here using it or can clarify whether it's usable or not or gotchas etc?
Regards,
Lucian

Thanks! It's on my whish-list to test this feature and some other things
like local storage migration.
Could take a while before I get to it, but then we can test this for
Basic Networking as well.

Re: ConfigDrive status
Posted by Kris Sterckx <kr...@nuagenetworks.net>.
Guys if we are talking about the 4.11 implementation, this is documented
here
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Using+ConfigDrive+for+Metadata%2C+Userdata+and+Password
It built further to Jayapal's work, but the support has been significantly
generalized.
- generalized to support Isolated networks and VPC's as well . (note : no
support *yet* for Basic Zone)
- KVM support and ESXI (lack of lab for testing XEN)
- it comes with its own User Data provider now ("ConfigDrive") , so any
network offering can or cannot select Config Drive to be the provider of
User Data.
The use case where VR is not any longer in any of the providers list is
an interesting use case obviously, but it's fully flexible.
- OpenStack cloud-init aligned (~ cfr Miami CCC conclusion last year)
- CoreOS ignition support has been provided
The iso's are stored today at the secondary storage.
First time i see the higher reported issues . In which context were they
filed ?

Like Lucian/Nux said this can be very helpful in other situations as
well. ConfigDrive allows for metadata to reach the Instance without
networking function or DHCP.
In IPv6-only environments this can also work very well, so yes, it would
be great if this works in other offerings.
When I have the time I'll dig into this and see if I can get it working.

Yes, makes sense, hope we can use it everywhere eventually and decouple userdata from the VR.
It would help a lot people working on alternate VRs, such as VyOS (I think cloudps were toying with it).
Thanks for the clarifications!

Re: ConfigDrive status
Posted by Jayapal Uradi <ja...@accelerite.com>.
Yes.
In case shared network there is only DHCP and DNS and user data. If the DHCP and DNS is external then I don’t want to launch a VR only for user data.
Initially it was started to address only specific requirement.
We can have a config drive provider and it can be extended to all networks/zones.
Thanks,

Hi Jayapal,
This has probably already been discussed and am missing a lot of context, but can you summarise why this is not applied in all zones?
A network independent userdata provider should seem like the lowest common denominator, right?

Hi Nux,
It is developed only for advanced zone shared network (offering without any services).
This feature is developed on xenserver, kvm and vmware hypervisor.
It can be extended to other networks.

We reported 3-4 issues with config drive. It’s being worked on. It does
work - but not per agreed upon specifications.

Hi Lucian,
I’m maybe not the right person to answer this – but my understanding is it only kicks in when you have a network offering without a VR, at which point the metadata etc. is presented as the config drive. Happy to be corrected on this.
We did however have a really major gotcha 18 months ago – when a customer did a CloudStack upgrade and ended up with new unexpected config drives causing changes to all the VMware disk controller addressing – meaning VMs wouldn’t boot, couldn’t see disks, etc. If you use VMware I would test beforehand.
