Bug Description
Bug originally found by Alex Katz and reported in the bugzilla: https:/
Description of problem:
When a stateless security group is attached to the instance it fails to fetch metadata info. An explicit rule is required to allow metadata traffic from 169.254.169.254.
Checked with the custom security group (only egress traffic is allowed) as well as with the default security group (egress and ingress from the same SG are allowed).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHOS-17.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 9.1 (Plow)
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
openstack security group create --stateless test_sg
openstack server create --image <IMG> --flavor <FLAV> --network <NET> --security-group test_sg vm_1
Actual results:
checking http://

There's a workaround so the importance should be set to Medium.
