All, I've built a custom image according to the various directions available in the nova docs. The instance is loaded into glance and boots fine. When building the image, openssh-server and cloud-init packages are installed. So far so good.
However, when I start the image, cloud-init does not 'see' the EC2 datasource (i.e. the meta-data server), and reports back that it's only looking for the NoCloudNet and SourceOVFNet datasources when running in the 'cloud-init start' phase (versus start-local). When I check the '/var/lib/cloud' directory, cloud-init is not setting up the instance link or populating the instance subdirectory under /var/lib/cloud/instances. I'm able to connect to the meta-data service with no problem when logged into the running instance. Obviously there's something I'm missing when configuring my custom image and installing the cloud-init package. UEC images execute flawlessly (downloaded from Ubuntu). I feel like a broken record. What am I missing? Any pointers would be appreciated.
