Hello,

If you are using, for example, config-drive metadata service(which is read-only), the password cannot be exposed to the OpenStack backend and made available to the user.

As a suggestion to solve this issue, I suggest you to set a password for the instance in advance and in this case it doesn't need to be generated by cloudbase-init. You can find more details on how to set the password in this thread http://ask.cloudbase.it/question/317/retrieving-windows-instance-administrator-password-with-adminpass-filed/

Hope it works!
