(Get the code!)
In Azure SSH pubkeys are transported in a certificate through the wireserver protocol. When cloud-init is configured to use waagent, which is the current default, cloud-init will wait maxwait=60 seconds for waagent to drop the .crt files corresponding to the fingerprint that was mentioned in the ovf-env.xml.
We've had a couple of cases where the wireserver was flaky from more than 1 minute during provisioning which yielded a user without password or keys. These VM's are not usable without further action, we would rather have cloud-init wait forever for these .crt files to be provided. Azure VM provisioning will timeout and kill the VM when provisioning takes too long.
I'm working on a fix for this issue.
