https://gist.github.com/vbatts/705c2542df39495319c8601c01b658e8/#file-cloud-config-yaml-L14 missing an install target here. I'd have to add:

[Install]
        WantedBy=multi-user.target

for the install-opt-dir.service for the service to startup

@frezbo oh nice. Since it is a oneshot that is pulled in by dependency of usr-libexec.mount I didn't find that [Install] was needed. Did this config not work for you without that section?

@vbatts I was using the ignition config and it failed to create the unit. If you want I can spin a vm and show the logs with [Install] section missing. This was with FlatCar Linux on DigitalOcean.

IgnitionConfig:

{
  "ignition": {
    "version": "2.1.0"
  },
  "systemd": {
    "units": [
      {
        "name": "install-opt-dir.service",
        "enabled": true,
        "contents": "[Unit]\n\tDescription=Install /opt directories\n\tConditionPathIsDirectory=!/opt/libexec\n\tConditionPathIsDirectory=!/opt/libexec.wd\n\n[Service]\n\tType=oneshot\n\tExecStart=/usr/bin/mkdir -p /opt/libexec /opt/libexec.wd\n\"
      }
    ]
  }
}

@frezbo 👍 no worries. And thanks for the ignition example!
