cloud-init script not running #131

Closed ubenmackin closed 3 years ago

ubenmackin commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug I'm sure this is not a bug, and my issue, but wasn't sure how to best ask a question.

I'm trying to follow

https://github.com/josenk/terraform-provider-esxi/tree/master/examples-0.13/05%20CloudInit%20and%20Templates

But it seems like the cloud-init script are not being applied to my VM on deployment.

If I deploy the OVA that I made, and run cloud-init status it shows:

root@ubuntuserver:~# cloud-init status
status: disabled

I'm not sure if the status should be something else.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

terraform apply

Expected behavior

The hostname gets changed thanks to cloud-init

Terraform files main.tf

variable "vm_hostname" {
  default = "randomname"
}

terraform {
  required_version = ">= 0.13"
  required_providers {
    esxi = {
      source = "registry.terraform.io/josenk/esxi"
    }
  }
}

provider "esxi" {
  esxi_hostname = "10.5.1.10"
  esxi_hostport = "22"
  esxi_hostssl  = "443"
  esxi_username = "root"
  esxi_password = "mypassword"
}

data "template_file" "userdata_default" {
  template = file("userdata.tpl")
  vars = {
    HOSTNAME = var.vm_hostname 
    HELLO    = "Hello EXSI World!"
  }
}

resource "esxi_guest" "vmtest" {
  disk_store = "VMSSD"

  guest_name     = var.vm_hostname
  memsize        = 2048
  numvcpus       = 2
  virthwver      = 18

  power = "on"

  ovf_source = "http://10.5.0.20/index.php/s/Q6IhdbGcV6flGaa/download?path=%2F&files=Ubuntu
Server.ova"

  network_interfaces {
    nic_type = "vmxnet3"
    virtual_network = "VM Network"
  }

  guestinfo = {
    "userdata.encoding" = "gzip+base64"
    "userdata"          = base64gzip(data.template_file.userdata_default.rendered)
  }

}

userdata.tpl

#cloud-config

runcmd:
  - date >/root/cloudinit.log
  - hostnamectl set-hostname ${HOSTNAME}
  - echo ${HELLO} >>/root/cloudinit.log
  - echo "Done cloud-init" >>/root/cloudinit.log

Sounds like a cloud-init issue to me??? Did you figure this out?
