Comment 5 for bug 1640635

Kernel command line:

$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=(http)/kernel initrd=initrd root=/dev/sda3 ro netroot=iscsi:@169.254.0.2::3260::iqn.2015-02.oracle.boot:uefi crashkernel=auto ip=dhcp iscsi_initiator=iqn.2015-10.oracle:2.1g1538-gb000393 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0

The datasource is a yaml file we generate on instance launch that is made accessible to the host over http. At the moment it contains very little information:

$ curl http://169.254.169.254/openstack/latest/meta_data.json
{
  "uuid" : "ocid1.instance.oc1.phx.abyhqljszmao4waexfg6gxtu73phfgeclyyscoi6r3evhsaba24uupp3hu5q",
  "name" : "nvmetest",
  "availability_zone" : "phx-ad-2",
  "hostname" : "nvmetest",
  "public_keys" : {
    "0" : "<<redacted>>"
  },
  "meta" : { }
}

It's also available via a few different URLs, e.g. http://169.254.169.254/openstack/2013-10-17/meta_data.json will return the same content.
