> @CodeBleu (and others), isn’t this overriding of the template level definition the exact intention of the append method? I understand this might be a security rtisk in some cases, but append not overiding the template level definition would cause me to complain to my provider. As mentioned above. Here is what actual docs say. IMO, APPEND/APPEND_ONLY should do just that, append, otherwise it doesnt make sense. https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.19.3.0/adminguide/virtual_machines/user-data.html > Append Only: Don’t allow users to override linked UserData but allow users to pass userdata content > or ID that should be appended to the linked UserData of the Template. When the users pass userdata it is appended to the Template userdata in the form of a multipart MIME message -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
