Cloud-init config example for using the none data source provider to setup a box for usage with vagrant on finding no cloud metadata service.

cloud.cfg

      chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/vagrant

Pardon the interruption but I've got a question regarding the use of datasource and datasource_list in your example above. What's the purpose of listing "ConfigDrive" on line #2 and then not referencing "ConfigDrive" in the datasource: (line 3) stanza? The reason that I ask is that I want to write a cloud-config file that will work with both VMware (AltCloud) and AWX (Ec2) datasources. I want to install a set of packages only when it's AltCloud and then a different set of packages only when it's Ec2. Is that even possible?

Not referencing it just means use the default cloud-init ConfigDrive config if I remember correctly.

Many of the optiions can be set declaratively, without involving shell scripting: https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/examples.html
