Hello.

I created and ran a Windows instance made with OpenStack. (The instance name is "AAA") And after a 'few minutes'(about 3min~10min) after booting the instance, it was automatically rebooted.

So I confirmed that the hostname was changed to the name("AAA") of the instance I named.

I want to shorten this 'few minutes'. Is there a way to make Cloudbase-init run as soon as it finishes booting?

Thank you

Hello,

In this case, I can only assume that there is no access to the HTTP OpenStack metadata service and cloudbase-init is set by default to use it and it will retry to access the HTTP metadata a number of configurable times, and only after that it uses the ConfigDrive metadata (which succeeds).

Can you share the cloudbase-init configuration file / logs for further debug and information?

Thank you,
Adrian Vladu

I found this part of log. 2020-12-16 11:22:59.717 6848 ERROR cloudbaseinit.metadata.services.ec2service [-] 503 Server Error: Service Unavailable for url: http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/meta-data/local-hostname

It seems that the OpenStack you use does not expose the HTTP metadata API to the instances. If it exposes the config drive one, you can set in cloudbase-init.conf, in the DEFAULT section, metadata_services=cloudbaseinit.metadata.services.configdrive.ConfigDriveService
