I have a branch at https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+ref/bug/1576692 which: a.) moves cloud-init-final to be Type=idle b.) moves config modules such as package-update-upgrade-install to run in the final_modules
I've patched a lxc container with that, and then launched several instances. My experience is that out of 5 containers 2 or 3 of them will have a running postgres at the end (per systemctl status postgresql@9.5-main). The user-data I'm providing is just: #cloud-config packages: [postgresql] runcmd: - "systemctl status postgresql@9.5-main > /run/my-status || true" Then you can just look at /run/my-status. To start a patched image what you can do is: n=y1 lxc init ubuntu-daily:yakkety $n "--config=user.user-data=$(cat my.user-data)" lxc-chroot $n -- sh -ec 'd=/tmp/my.deb; trap "rm -f $d" EXIT; cat > $d && dpkg -i $d' < "$deb" lxc start $n -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1576692 Title: fully support package installation in systemd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1576692/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
