Hi

Does eve-ng support the cloud-init file and if so how do you update the existing qcow images ?

Has anyone had any joy with the Velo images ?

Thanks

Original from Velocloud.VM ware..
but I have to admit it is super tough instructions, so engineer must be prepared to know linux and compilation and rest stuff, even a coding a bit
Very user unfriendly stuff
sorry

Using cloud.init instructions from VMWare SDWAN Product documentation

From veloedge-4.?.? directory on your eve-ng server

echo 'instance-id: Virtual-Edge' > meta-data
echo 'local-hostname: Virtual-Edge' >> meta-data

echo '#cloud-config' > user-data
echo 'password: h3llo' >> user-data
echo 'chpasswd: { expire: False }' >> user-data
echo 'ssh_pwauth: True' >> user-data

genisoimage -output seed.iso -volid cidata -joliet -rock user-data meta-data

mv seed.iso virtiob.qcow2

Create the velocloud edge in the gui and both virtio files will be copied to the running directory
