The 'power-state-change' module appears to have been added in Nov 2012 ( https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/finalcmd/+merge/134029) - which should have been included in cloud-init 0.7.1, at least according to the timeline on the Launchpad pages and my interpretation thereof :) The reason I mention this is that I know that Ubuntu 12.04 LTS makes use of cloud-init 0.6.3 and similar may be true for other OS distros/versions. 2. Inclusion in cloud-init config While I would expect it to appear there by default (it does in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS), and assuming you are making use of cloud-init >= 0.7.1, the instance should have an entry in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg (under the 'cloud_final_modules' section) for the 'power-state-change' module in order for it to be considered during a run e.g. # The modules that run in the 'final' stage cloud_final_modules: - rightscale_userdata - scripts-vendor - scripts-per-once - scripts-per-boot - scripts-per-instance - scripts-user - ssh-authkey-fingerprints - keys-to-console - phone-home - final-message - power-state-change Naturally, if the module is not included it will not be considered. I hope that one of those is the pointer you were looking for. Regards, -- Adnan
