That was changed to a warning. [Test Case] This can't really be tested on Ubuntu, as ubuntu does not render sysconfig network information. [Regression Potential] Low everywhere (change ValueError to a WARN) and lower on Ubuntu, where the code is not in the run path. [Other Info] Upstream commit: https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/commit/?id=657fd40f9ee692a === End SRU Template === When running in an environment that provides more than 3 nameservers, cloud-init will raise a ValueError exception: Mar 04 18:03:01 localhost.localdomain cloud-init[901]: ValueError: Adding '8.8.8.8' would go beyond the '3' maximum name servers While that is a legitimate complaint, raising an exception seems like the wrong response, because this results in *no* nameserver configuration, which can have a substantial operational impact on the system. Cloud-init should probably just log a warning in this case, and ignore any nameservers received after the first three.
