[pve-devel] HTTP API : Cloudinit

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

Hi,

I also wonder if it could be great to allow user to add custom cloudinit config,
if something is not yet in proxmox gui.(deploy ssh keys, format disk, growfs, do the mount,... )

I'm using puppet, so I don't need it, but maybe  user without conf deployment software could use it.

We already able to send a lot of text in "notes" gui.
maybe something resonable, like 4k of custom cloudinit config should be enough, and should not explode pmxcfs.

ok so you want to have a completely custom cloudinit config? 
since it would blow up our config file size if someone has a big 
cloudinit config, i would rather avoid that (e.g. with every snapshot, 
the whole thing has to be duplicated) 

i guess in that case it would be easier to have your own cloudinit 
metadata server and generate it yourself, or do those things 
with a configuration management tools like ansible/puppet/chef etc. 

or do you have an idea how to implement that ?
