That doesn't make any sense. Its non-determinable, its non-determinable when cloud-init runs as well as later on. When cloud-init ran to decide if there was a response to this call, it may give a single value, or may give 4 values, or may give no response. That may change later on when some other utility was asking. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/871966 Title: FQDN written to /etc/hosts causes problems for clustering systems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/871966/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
