Engineering Team, which is subscribed to cloud-init. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890528 Title: cloud-init status --wait returns before cloud-final has finished executing Status in cloud-init: Expired Bug description: I'm instrumenting our EC2 instances to report whether cloud-init succeeded or failed during the boot process. I've implemented this as a systemd unit that is triggered early in the boot process that runs a script that resembles the following: cloud_init_status=0 cloud-init status --wait || cloud_init_status=$? if [ "$cloud_init_status" = "0" ]; then report_launch_success else report_launch_failure fi I was expecting `cloud-init status --wait` to only return after cloud- final has completed, but I discovered today that it can return early if there is an error encountered during the cloud-config stage. I reported this in IRC and @blackboxsw thought the issue might be somewhere in this code ( https://github.com/canonical/cloud- init/blob/a13febd286d21f1754e32f4a05e722039eb452b8/cloudinit/cmd/status.py#L133-L144) and suggested I file a bug here. I am using cloud-init 20.2-45 on Xenial.
