Bug Description
The generic Ubuntu "*-server-
http://
... do not work on a SmartOS hypervisor: they try to detect a datasource, but ultimately fail. It appears that this is because the "SmartOS" datasource is not in the list of datasources to try. This appears to be an oversight, as the "cloud-init" project source includes a fallback configuration for when no configuration is provided by the image:
-------
- cloudinit/
-------
CFG_BUILTIN = {
'datasource
'NoCloud',
'Azure',
'AltCloud',
'OVF',
'MAAS',
'GCE',
'Ec2',
'SmartOS',
# At the end to act as a 'catch' when none of the above work...
'None',
],
...
-------
This list seems to be overridden in the generic images as shipped on ubuntu.com:
-------
- etc/cloud/
-------
# to update this file, run dpkg-reconfigure cloud-init
datasource_list: [ NoCloud, ConfigDrive, OpenNebula, Azure, AltCloud,OVF, MAAS, GCE, OpenStack, CloudSigma, Ec2, CloudStack, None ]
-------
SmartOS is the only datasource type that appears in the default CFG_BUILTIN list but is missing from the overridden list as shipped in the images. Can this list please be updated for at least the 14.04 and 14.10 generic cloud images to include SmartOS?
Thanks.
