Issue with 'Admin' password.

Hello,

We are creating customer windows images for our cloud. Currently cloudbase-init user is set to 'Admin' with 'injectuserpassword' value true. We are able to retrieve password for 'Admin' user with 'nova get-password' but for some reason that password is not working.

One thing I noticed is that 'adminPass' in the 'nova boot' command and the password retrieved using 'nova get-password ' are different and both didn't work. Customers can set 'Administrator' password from Console on first boot and it works fine.

I checked the 'cloudbase-init.log' file and there is no error when executing the ''SetUserPasswordPlugin'' plugin.

One of our customer wants to use nova API to create instances and they want to retrieve password using API.

If you could give some assistance on fixing this issue, that would be great.

Thanks for your assistance.
