cloud-init
is absolute cancer. Its code is horrible. It has no documentation at all.
It took me 5 fucking hours to figure out how to properly configure networking on recent
cloud-init
(Ubuntu 16.04 cloud image
) with local datasource.
It's not mentioned anywhere you need to provide dsmode: local
. (but only if you need network-config,
besides that everything is fine; someone below noted that -m
flag does the same thing, good to know) Of course nobody needs documentation for network-config
format
either. (cloudinit/net/__init__.py
is a protip, enjoy the feces dive)
Oh, and by the way - no, it's not possible to provide network-config
to uvt-kvm
without patching shit.
Use -N
flag for cloud-localds for network-config
.

Instead of relying on cloud-init's network configuration I've opted to write the netplan configuration from the
user-config.yml
usingwrite_files
and it's applied from a per-instance script.Full disclosure though I have ditched Proxmox in favour of Multipass but the cloud-init logic will be the same.
