You have to make sure that cloud-init is enabled and running in your base instance. Then snapshot that VM and launch another instance from the new image, provide some user-data to test it. Cloud-init is a tool for initial configuration of new instances, that's why you would have to execute these steps manually if you configure your first VM to be a new base image. So all the magic will be (hopefully) visible if you launch a new VM.

Hi Bob,

yes I'm following those tutorial, creating glance image from existing vm
xenserver.

   - build from scratch VM using "16.04 template" and "other installation
   media"
   - update & upgrade the VM OS
   - installing cloud-init package, no change of cloud-init configuration
   and using the default setting of cloud-init
   - reboot the VM for testing the cloud-init and no output showing
   cloud-init activity, there is no process associated with cloud-init in
   "/var/log/syslog"
   - export the vdi, compress the VHD, upload to glance
   - start instance using the custom image, just get the IP address. To
gather instance metadata, "cloud-init init" must be executed manually after
   instance completely booting.

Hi Adhi,



Did you follow a guide, such as http://citrix-openstack.
siteleaf.net/posts/generating-images-for-xenserver-in-openstack/ for
generating the image?  If not, how was the image generated?



What exactly is the output from the 17.04 image you’re using?



Thanks,



Bob

*Subject:* [Openstack] cloud-init not start ini ubuntu 17.04



hi all,

I just created ubuntu 17.04 custom image for working with openstack
xenserver, after installing & update+upgrade ubuntu 17.04 base OS, I
installed cloud-init, then reboot it to test cloud-init, but I can't see
cloud-init process during the ubuntu 17.04 OS boot.

Is there anyone can help or give a suggest for me ?
