Public bug reported: Hi, I have been running up against this for a while and haven't found a work around no matter how much I change the format of the source yaml.
Environment: - vSphere deploying using Terraform and the VMWare Guest Info datasource (https://github.com/vmware/cloud-init-vmware-guestinfo) - Ubuntu 18.04 Cloud image - Cloud-init v. 19.4-33-gbb4131a2-0ubuntu1~18.04.1 Issue: When cloud init tries to apply the network configuration (using v2 syntax) it results in the following error from netplan: Stderr: /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml:10:13: Error in network definition: malformed address '10.1.400.140/24', must be X.X.X.X/NN or X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X/NN - 10.1.400.140/24 It is obvious why the error is happening because when you check the resulting yaml file it is wrongly indented: # This file is generated from information provided by the datasource. Changes # to it will not persist across an instance reboot. To disable cloud-init's # network configuration capabilities, write a file # /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following: # network: {config: disabled} network: ethernets: ens192: addresses: - 10.1.1.50/24 dhcp4: false gateway4: null nameservers: addresses: [] set-name: TEST ens224: addresses: - 10.2.2.14/24 dhcp4: false gateway4: 10.2.2.254 nameservers: addresses: - 10.2.2.254 set-name: MGMT ens256: addresses: - 192.168.1.14/24 dhcp4: false gateway4: 192.168.1.254 nameservers: addresses: - 192.168.1.254 set-name: TEST2 version: 2 However the input yaml from the VMware datasource looks correct: #vmware-rpctool "info-get guestinfo.metadata" | base64 -d network: version: 2 ethernets: ens192: dhcp4: false set-name: TEST addresses: [10.1.1.50/24] gateway4: nameservers: addresses: [] ens224: dhcp4: false set-name: MGMT addresses: [10.2.2.14/24] gateway4: 10.2.2.254 nameservers: addresses: [10.2.2.254] ens256: dhcp4: false set-name: TEST2 addresses: [192.168.1.14/24] gateway4: 192.168.1.254 nameservers: addresses: [192.168.1.254] local-hostname: server.mgmt instance-id: server.mgmt And cloud init seems to interpret it correctly to json (from cloud- init.log): { 'ens192': { 'dhcp4': False, 'set-name': 'TEST', 'addresses': [ '10.1.1.50/24' ], 'gateway4': None, 'nameservers': { 'addresses': [ ] } }, 'ens224': { 'dhcp4': False, 'set-name': 'MGMT', 'addresses': [ '10.2.2.14/24' ], 'gateway4': '10.2.2.254', 'nameservers': { 'addresses': [ '10.2.2.254' ] } }, 'ens256': { 'dhcp4': False, 'set-name': 'TEST2', 'addresses': [ '192.168.1.14/24' ], 'gateway4': '192.168.1.254', 'nameservers': { 'addresses': [ '192.168.1.254' ] } } } However it seems the conversion from the json into netplan yaml malforms the yaml slightly causing the netplan apply to fail.
