Hello,
I've build my own Windows Image (Windows 2012 R2 Standard) by following this guide: http://docs.openstack.org/image-guide/windows-image.html
I am creating my instances with metadata => {admin_pass => "MySpecialPassword123!@"}. My generated passwords are following the Windows password complexity requirements: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh994562%28v=ws.11%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I want to use my own password passed by the Metadata Service of OpenStack.
I've set the following attributes in both configs:
- C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\conf\cloudbase-init.conf
- C:\Program Files\Cloudbase Solutions\Cloudbase-Init\conf\cloudbase-init-unattend.conf
inject_user_password=true first_logon_behaviour=no username=Administrator
The OpenStack Instance Log shows up also "Set password for existing user Administrator". Looks fine but I can't login with my metadata password and Windows still tells me to change my password after the login. I don't know why this happens because firstlogonbehaviour is set to "no".
As quick-fix I am setting my passwords via powershell by myself. But that solution is really dirty and I would recommend to use the build-in function.
Does anyone know what the problem can be?
Thank you!
Regards, Alexander
