Hi Guys,

I've fixed the issue, you all were correct, the problem was on the OpenStack side.
The problem was with the MTU (a device in the middle of those link don't allow >1500 MTU, we use jumbo frames.

But I have a question. Why xenial worked, did it transfer the metadata in chunks (therefore each part (json payload+protocol overhead) totals <1500 bytes)? because even with the MTU 9000 and the device discarding jumbo frames in the middle cloud-init on xenial worked (yes, with the EC2 datasource).

I would appreciate an insight of how that cloud init version works in this sense.
