2017-08-10 02:49:23 +0300 answered a question Run a cmd after host name reboot

Cloudbase-Init has actions performed at various stages (called plugins). The one that sets the hostname (and needs a reboot because that's what Windows requires unfortunately) comes before the userdata or the localscripts ones.

If you are using OpenStack, I would recommend to pass a userdata PowerShell script that joins the domain, e.g. using djoin.exe:

#ps1
& djoin.exe /requestODJ /loadfile <blob_txt_file> /windowspath $ENV:SystemRoot /localos

2017-07-28 01:55:23 +0300 commented question Avoid Reboot After Cloning Volume?

The reason why a reboot is performed by cloudbase-init, is that Windows requires a reboot after changing the hostname. Disabling the hostname plugin avoids the reboot.

2017-05-16 22:14:20 +0300 answered a question SetUserPasswordPlugin failed with error 'HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

As by Nova API documentation, the service returns 202 in case of success or 409 when the password is already set. A 403 error leads towards a configuration issue on the Nova API side. Can you check your Nova API configuration (policy.json in particular) to ensure that posting passwords is allowed?
