Engineering Team, which is subscribed to cloud-init. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1893770 Title: Cloudinit resets network scripts to default configuration DHCP once Config Drive is removed after sometime Status in cloud-init: Expired Bug description: Cloudinit version: 19.1 Platform: OpenStack based. OS: RHEL, SUSE We use config drive(/dev/sr0) as a data source to configure network interfaces in the guest but configdrive is not always available and may be removed after couple of hours from the hypervisor. On a first boot cloudinit uses data provided in config drive and updates system level network scripts /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-* (Static configuration of networks) files and also configures the interface in the guest. As long as the configdrive is available, reboots will relay on system scripts for the configuring network but once configdrive is removed, datasource becomes None meaning it neither system script nor config drive which makes cloud init to configure default network which is DHCP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1893770/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team Post to : yahoo-eng-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
