Can you please provide some more background on this?
which feature set of cloud-init do you see this covering and how would
the information will be passed (I assume some would be via the vm payload).
but going forward, i was envisioning for ovirt/rhev to better integrate
with cloud-init via something like the meta data service (vm payload of
type network).
so there is custom vm payload, which integration via the current payload
mechanism would be great (since it will be the userdata for network
payload as well).
but for some things, iiuc cloud-init correctly, they are not supposed to
be via userdata, rather via specific named fields.
Thanks,
Itamar
