The cloud-init address is used for dynamic configuration of your instances. Reasons it might fail: - you might not have a neutron metadata-agent & proxy configured and running - your networking might be misconfigured : if instance networking doesn't come up, you'll see that error. I suspect the latter issue is the problem. -- Robert Collins <rbtcoll...@hp.com> Distinguished Technologist HP Cloud Services _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
