Subject: [ovirt-users] yaml  cloud-init custom scripts

Hello,

I've been unsuccessfully trying to make work a custom yalm script with the
cloud-init option in 3.4.1.
All other native UI parameters are correctly configured (hostname...)

My goal is to change the keyboard layout:
write_files:
- content: |
# My new /etc/sysconfig/keyboard file
KEYTABLE="fr"
MODEL="pc105"
LAYOUT="fr"
KEYBOARDTYPE="pc"
path: /etc/sysconfig/keyboard
permissions: '0644'

I can't see what is wrong and there is nothing into cloud-init logs on the
guest (/var/log/clou-init-output.log).
isn't it in /var/log/cloud-init.log ?

Is it possible to see the whole yalm file generated by the engine somewhere?

the cloud init data is attached to the vm as a cd-rom
you can mount it locally and look inside the drive name is config-2 (look for 
it with blkid)
for me on fedora 19 it always appear in /dev/sr1
First look at the mounted content as Omer suggested and take a look if the YAML
output as you expected.
You can also try to set the data that is written in the "custom script"
commit:

see if adding this content is working for your setup:
write_files:
-   content: |
         # some file content
     path: /root/myfile

This sample was tested and worked under RHEL 6 and Fedora 19.
Please note that you need to add a tab/4 spaces as shown above.

What OS and what version of cloud-init you are using?
that's it, I finally managed to make it work after many an many tests, that wasn't so trivial. First I followed your advices and I successfully tested the sample script you suggested without modify it. Then each time I attempted to add a line to the same file, it wasn't executed anymore. I read the file with cat -T /media/openstack/latest/user_data and then noticed that the lines weren't uniformly formated : some were with tab and other ones with 8 spaces. Following "Please note that you need to add a tab/4 spaces as shown above" I added tab on every lines related to content of the file, but it didn't work.
I began again with only 8 spaces and then it ran.
Seems YAML to be very format sensitive and it is not clear enough when begining this kind of job, so that I hope my leak will help many other ones. I think the custom script field in the UI is not helpful because it is impossible to insert a line, when doing a CR it leads to the end of file, and it is a behaviour which easily leads to format error. It could be a good idea to refuse validating OK if any tab is detected there.
Can I have your feeling about this?
