Thanks for filing the bug. It's unfortunate that VIO does not identify
that it's running images in OpenStack.
Looking at the output provided, all we can tell is that we're on VMWare,
but no indication that it's OpenStack, so cloud-init can't reasonable
expect to know that it should enable the OpenStack datasource.
I'm not familiar with the VIO product, but any of the DMI tables which
set values could be an option to include OpenStackCompute.

In the above dump of DMI data, is VMware Virtual Platform specific to
VIO? and does VIO always expose metadata service?
If so, we could detect/enable OpenStack datasource if we know we're on
VIO specifically.
