Public bug reported:
Pollinate provides various bits of information in the user agent to
allow gathering of statistics about Ubuntu clients. Unfortunately, the
'subiquity' tag is only added (via curtin->cloud-init) to the user agent
tag in the *target* system; the live environment, which also runs
pollinate for entropy gathering, does not have any such tag. This makes
it impossible to distinguish booted live server images from other
"generic" clients in the data.
It would be valuable to have a tag identifying the live server image for
statistical and debugging purposes.
I would suggest using 'live/<serial>' as a tag, where <serial> is the
image build serial from /mnt/.disk/info.
This probably needs to be done by casper reading the file and
synthesizing the content on the live overlay.
** Affects: casper (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Package changed: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) => casper (Ubuntu)
** Summary changed:
- /etc/pollinate/add-user-agent should be populated in the (server live env) to
allow better identification of live clients
+ /etc/pollinate/add-user-agent should be populated (in the server live env) to
allow better identification of live clients
