Just sharing some scripts used here. I hope they can help you. Create file cloud.cfg_jammy
Change the following lines: cloud_init_modules: . . - [ssh, always] cloud_config_modules: . . - [set-passwords, always] Download the cloud-set-guest-password-configdrive.sh script. Create custom-networking_v2.cfg: network: version: 2 ethernets: ens3: dhcp4: true apt install libguestfs-tools wget https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/jammy/current/jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --run-command 'rm /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg' -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --upload cloud.cfg_jammy:/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --mkdir /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --mkdir /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-instance -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --upload cloud-set-guest-password-configdrive.sh:/var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot/cloud-set-guest-password-configdrive.sh -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --upload cloud-set-guest-password-configdrive.sh:/var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-instance/cloud-set-guest-password-configdrive.sh -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --upload cnptia-per-instance-script.sh:/var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-instance/cnptia-per-instance-script.sh -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img virt-customize --upload custom-networking_v2.cfg:/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/custom-networking_v2.cfg -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img One important thing noted here, if you intend to use a DHCP server in this L2 network, without static configured hosts. All VMs will be launched from the same template and the /etc/machine-id will be the same. The DHCP client will derivate one client id from this information. So, for all VMs, the DHCP server thinks they are the same host, offerging the same IP. Caos! I've read some documents and posts saying the image distributor (maybe Canonical, distributing de qcow2 image), is the indicated figure to fix the problem, making some configuration to reset the machine id. Indeed, if you truncate (you cannot remove the file) /etc/machine-id and /var/lib/dbus/machine-id, it will be generated on first boot. Here, as the template is already uploaded and distributed to the Zone, I made one ansible that fix this problem. But, I think you could run virt-customize and truncate them. Maybe: virt-customize --run-command 'truncate -s0 /etc/machine-id /var/lib/dbus/machine-id' -a jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img Em qui., 5 de out. de 2023 às 05:57, Joan g <joang...@gmail.com> escreveu: > Thanks wei... > > On Thu, 5 Oct, 2023, 13:20 Wei ZHOU, <ustcweiz...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > You need to add a script in the template to get password from configdrive > > and reset user password.
