2018-12-03NoCloud: Allow top level 'network' key in network-config.Scott Moser
NoCloud's 'network-config' file was originally expected to contain network configuration without the top level 'network' key. This was because the file was named 'network-config' so specifying 'network' seemed redundant. However, JuJu is currently providing a top level 'network' config when it tries to disable networking ({"network": {"config": "disabled"}). Other users have also been surprised/confused by the fact that a network config in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/network.cfg differed from what was expected in 'network-config'. LP: #1798117
2018-12-03ovf: Fix ovf network config generation gateway/routesRyan Harper
Move routes under the nic's subnet rather than use top-level ("global") route config ensuring all net renderers will provide the configured route. Also updated cloudinit/cmd/devel/net_convert.py:  - Add input type 'vmware-imc' for OVF customization config files  - Fix bug when output-type was netplan which invoked netplan   generate/apply and attempted to write to   /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml instead of joining with the   output directory. LP: #1806103
2018-11-29azure: detect vnet migration via netlink media change eventTamilmani Manoharan
Replace Azure pre-provision polling on IMDS with a blocking call which watches for netlink link state change messages. The media change event happens when a pre-provisioned VM has been activated and is connected to the users virtual network and cloud-init can then resume operation to complete image instantiation.
2018-11-29Azure: fix copy/paste error in error handling when reading azure ovf.Adam DePue
Check the appropriate variables based on code review. Correcting what seems to be a copy/paste mistake for the error handling from a few lines above.
2018-11-15azure: _poll_imds only retry on 404. Fail on TimeoutChad Smith
Upon URL timeout, _poll_imds is expected to re-dhcp to get updated IP configuration. We don't want to indefinitely retry because the instance likely has invalid IP configuration. LP: #1803598
2018-11-13azure: retry imds polling on requests.TimeoutChad Smith
There is an infrequent race when the booting instance can hit the IMDS service before it is fully available. This results in a requests.ConnectTimeout being raised. Azure's retry_callback logic now retries on either 404s or Timeouts. LP:1800223
2018-11-12azure: Accept variation in error msg from mount for ntfs volumesJason Zions
If Azure detects an ntfs filesystem type during mount attempt, it should still report the resource device as reformattable. There are slight differences in error message format on RedHat and SuSE. This patch simplifies the expected error match to work on both distributions. LP: #1799338
2018-11-12azure: fix regression introduced when persisting ephemeral dhcp leaseasakkurr
In commitish 9073951 azure datasource tried to leverage stale DHCP information obtained from EphemeralDHCPv4 context manager to report updated provisioning status to the fabric earlier in the boot process. Unfortunately the stale ephemeral network configuration had already been torn down in preparation to bring up IMDS network config so the report attempt failed on timeout. This branch introduces obtain_lease and clean_network public methods on EphemeralDHCPv4 to allow for setup and teardown of ephemeral network configuration without using a context manager. Azure datasource now uses this to persist ephemeral network configuration across multiple contexts during provisioning to avoid multiple DHCP roundtrips.
2018-11-01azure: remove /etc/netplan/90-hotplug-azure.yaml when net from IMDSChad Smith
There was a typo in the seeded filename s/azure-hotplug/hotplug-azure/.
2018-10-31azure: report ready to fabric after reprovision and reduce loggingasakkurr
When reusing a preprovisioned VM, report ready to Azure fabric as soon as we get the reprovision data and the goal state so that we are not delayed by the cloud-init stage switch, saving 2-3 seconds. Also reduce logging when polling IMDS for reprovision data. LP: #1799594
2018-10-17azure: Add apply_network_config option to disable network from IMDSChad Smith
Azure generates network configuration from the IMDS service and removes any preexisting hotplug network scripts which exist in Azure cloud images. Add a datasource configuration option which allows for writing a default network configuration which sets up dhcp on eth0 and leave the hotplug handling to the cloud-image scripts. To disable network-config from Azure IMDS, add the following to /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-azure-no-imds-network.cfg: datasource:   Azure:     apply_network_config: False LP: #1798424
2018-10-09tools: Add cloud-id command line utilityChad Smith
Add a quick cloud lookup utility in order to more easily determine the cloud on which an instance is running. The utility parses standardized attributes from /run/cloud-init/instance-data.json to print the canonical cloud-id for the instance. It uses known region maps if necessary to determine on which specific cloud the instance is running. Examples: aws, aws-gov, aws-china, rackspace, azure-china, lxd, openstack, unknown
2018-10-09instance-data: Add standard keys platform and subplatform. Refactor ec2.Chad Smith
Add the following instance-data.json standardized keys: * v1._beta_keys: List any v1 keys in beta development, e.g. ['subplatform']. * v1.public_ssh_keys: List of any cloud-provided ssh keys for the instance. * v1.platform: String representing the cloud platform api supporting the datasource. For example: 'ec2' for aws, aliyun and brightbox cloud names. * v1.subplatform: String with more details about the source of the metadata consumed. For example, metadata uri, config drive device path or seed directory. To support the new platform and subplatform standardized instance-data, DataSource and its subclasses grew platform and subplatform attributes. The platform attribute defaults to the lowercase string datasource name at self.dsname. This method is overridden in NoCloud, Ec2 and ConfigDrive datasources. The subplatform attribute calls a _get_subplatform method which will return a string containing a simple slug for subplatform type such as metadata, seed-dir or config-drive followed by a detailed uri, device or directory path where the datasource consumed its configuration. As part of this work, DatasourceEC2 methods _get_data and _crawl_metadata have been refactored for a few reasons: - crawl_metadata is now a read-only operation, persisting no attributes on the datasource instance and returns a dictionary of consumed metadata. - crawl_metadata now closely represents the raw stucture of the ec2 metadata consumed, so that end-users can leverage public ec2 metadata documentation where possible. - crawl_metadata adds a '_metadata_api_version' key to the crawled ds.metadata to advertise what version of EC2's api was consumed by cloud-init. - _get_data now does all the processing of crawl_metadata and saves datasource instance attributes userdata_raw, metadata etc. Additional drive-bys: * unit test rework for test_altcloud and test_azure to simplify mocks and make use of existing util and test_helpers functions.
2018-09-26docs: surface experimental doc in instance-data.jsonChad Smith
2018-09-26Add support for Infiniband network interfaces (IPoIB).Mark Goddard
OpenStack ironic references Infiniband interfaces via a 6 byte 'MAC address' formed from bytes 13-15 and 18-20 of interface's hardware address. This address is used as the ethernet_mac_address of Infiniband links in network_data.json in configdrives generated by OpenStack nova. We can use this address to map links in network_data.json to their corresponding interface names. When generating interface configuration files, we need to use the interface's full hardware address as the HWADDR, rather than the 6 byte MAC address provided by network_data.json. This change allows IB interfaces to be referenced in this dual mode - by MAC address and hardware address, depending on the context. Support TYPE=InfiniBand for sysconfig configuration of IB interfaces.
2018-09-25cli: add cloud-init query subcommand to query instance metadataChad Smith
Cloud-init caches any cloud metadata crawled during boot in the file /run/cloud-init/instance-data.json. Cloud-init also standardizes some of that metadata across all clouds. The command 'cloud-init query' surfaces a simple CLI to query or format any cached instance metadata so that scripts or end-users do not have to write tools to crawl metadata themselves. Since 'cloud-init query' is runnable by non-root users, redact any sensitive data from instance-data.json and provide a root-readable unredacted instance-data-sensitive.json. Datasources can now define a sensitive_metadata_keys tuple which will redact any matching keys which could contain passwords or credentials from instance-data.json. Also add the following standardized 'v1' instance-data.json keys:   - user_data: The base64encoded user-data provided at instance launch   - vendor_data: Any vendor_data provided to the instance at launch   - underscore_delimited versions of existing hyphenated keys:     instance_id, local_hostname, availability_zone, cloud_name
2018-09-20Remove dead-code _write_network distro implementations.Scott Moser
Any distro that has a '_write_nework_config' method should no longer get their _write_network called at all. So lets drop that code and raise a RuntimeError any time we got there. Replace the one caller of 'apply_network' (legacy openstack path) with a call to apply_network_config after converting the ENI to network config.
2018-09-14OpenStack: Support setting mac address on bond.Fabian Wiesel
Fix a bug where setting of mac address on a bond device was ignored when provided in OpenStack network_config.json. LP: #1682064
2018-09-13EphemeralIPv4Network: Be more explicit when adding default route.Scott Moser
On OpenStack based OVH public cloud, we got DHCP response with   fixed-address 54.36.113.86;   option subnet-mask 255.255.255.255;   option routers 54.36.112.1; The router clearly is not on the subnet. So 'ip' would fail when we tried to add the default route. The solution here is to add an explicit route on that interface to the router and then add the default route. Also add 'bgpovs' to the list of 'physical' types for OpenStack network configuration. That type is used on OVH public cloud. LP: #1792415
2018-09-13OpenStack: support reading of newer versions of metdata.Scott Moser
Mark as supported for reading some newer versions of openstack metadata: 2016-06-30 : Newton one 2016-10-06 : Newton two 2017-02-22 : Ocata 2018-08-27 : Rocky
2018-09-12OpenStack: fix bug causing 'latest' version to be used from network.Scott Moser
Cloud-init was reading a list of versions from the OpenStack metadata service (http://169.254.169.254/openstack/) and attempt to select the newest known supported version. The problem was that the list of versions was not being decoded, so we were comparing a list of bytes (found versions) to a list of strings (known versions). LP: #1792157
2018-09-11user-data: jinja template to render instance-data.json in cloud-configChad Smith
Allow users to provide '## template: jinja' as the first line or their #cloud-config or custom script user-data parts. When this header exists, the cloud-config or script will be rendered as a jinja template. All instance metadata keys and values present in /run/cloud-init/instance-data.json will be available as jinja variables for the template. This means any cloud-config module or script can reference any standardized instance data in templates and scripts. Additionally, any standardized instance-data.json keys scoped below a '<v#>' key will be promoted as a top-level key for ease of reference in templates. This means that '{{ local_hostname }}' is the same as using the latest '{{ v#.local_hostname }}'. Since instance-data is written to /run/cloud-init/instance-data.json, make sure it is persisted across reboots when the cached datasource opject is reloaded. LP: #1791781
2018-09-05tests: Disallow use of util.subp except for where needed.Scott Moser
In many cases, cloud-init uses 'util.subp' to run a subprocess. This is not really desirable in our unit tests as it makes the tests dependent upon existance of those utilities. The change here is to modify the base test case class (CiTestCase) to raise exception any time subp is called. Then, fix all callers. For cases where subp is necessary or actually desired, we can use it via   a.) context hander CiTestCase.allow_subp(value)   b.) class level self.allowed_subp = value Both cases the value is a list of acceptable executable names that will be called (essentially argv[0]). Some cleanups in AltCloud were done as the code was being updated.
2018-08-28VMWare: Fix a network config bug in vm with static IPv4 and no gateway.Pengpeng Sun
The issue is when customize a VM with static IPv4 and without gateway, it will still extend route list and will loop a gateways list which is None. This fix is to make sure when no gateway is here, it will not extend route list. LP: #1766538
2018-08-17Add datasource Oracle Compute Infrastructure (OCI).Scott Moser
This adds a Oracle specific datasource that functions with OCI. It is a simplified version of the OpenStack metadata server with support for vendor-data. It does not support the OCI-C (classic) platform. Also here is a move of BrokenMetadata to common 'sources' as this was the third occurrence of that class.
2018-08-17azure: allow azure to generate network configuration from IMDS per boot.Chad Smith
Azure datasource now queries IMDS metadata service for network configuration at link local address http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance?api-version=2017-12-01. The azure metadata service presents a list of macs and allocated ip addresses associated with this instance. Azure will now also regenerate network configuration on every boot because it subscribes to EventType.BOOT maintenance events as well as the 'first boot' EventType.BOOT_NEW_INSTANCE. For testing add azure-imds --kind to cloud-init devel net_convert tool for debugging IMDS metadata. Also refactor _get_data into 3 discrete methods:   - is_platform_viable: check quickly whether the datasource is     potentially compatible with the platform on which is is running   - crawl_metadata: walk all potential metadata candidates, returning a     structured dict of all metadata and userdata. Raise InvalidMetaData on     error.   - _get_data: call crawl_metadata and process results or error. Cache     instance data on class attributes: metadata, userdata_raw etc.
2018-08-17Scaleway: Add network configuration to the DataSourceLouis Bouchard
DEP_NETWORK is removed since the network_config must run at each boot. New EventType.BOOT event is used for that. Network is brought up early to fetch the metadata which is required to configure the network (ipv4 and/or v6). Adds unittests for the following and fixes test_common for LOCAL and NETWORK sets.
2018-08-03OpenNebula: Fix null gateway6Akihiko Ota
The OpenNebula data source generates an invalid netplan yaml file if the IPv6 gateway is not defined in context.sh. LP: #1768547
2018-07-31oracle: fix detect_openstack to report True on OracleCloud.com DMI dataChad Smith
The OpenStack datasource in 18.3 changed to detect data in the init-local stage instead of init-network and attempted to redetect OpenStackLocal datasource on Oracle across reboots. The function detect_openstack was added to quickly detect whether a platform is OpenStack based on dmi product_name or chassis_asset_tag and it was a bit too strict for Oracle in checking for 'OpenStack Nova'/'Compute' DMI product_name. Oracle's DMI product_name reports 'SAtandard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)' and DMI chassis_asset_tag is 'OracleCloud.com'. detect_openstack function now adds 'OracleCloud.com' as a supported value 'OracleCloud.com' to valid chassis-asset-tags for the OpenStack datasource. LP: #1784685
2018-07-26update_metadata re-config on every boot comments and tests not quite rightMike Gerdts
The comment in update_metadata() that explains how a datasource should enable network reconfig on every boot presumes that EventType.BOOT_NEW_INSTANCE is a subset of EventType.BOOT. That's not the case, and as such a datasource that needs to configure networking when it is a new instance and every boot needs to include both event types. To make the situation above easier to debug, update_metadata() now logs when it returns false. To make it so that datasources do not need to test before appending to the update_events['network'], it is changed from a list to a set. test_update_metadata_only_acts_on_supported_update_events is updated to allow datasources to support EventType.BOOT. Author: Mike Gerdts <mike.gerdts@joyent.com>
2018-07-21pylint: Fix pylint warnings reported in pylint 2.0.0.Scott Moser
Pylint 2.0.0 was recently released and complains more about logging-not-lazy than it used to. I've fixed those warnings, here. The changes in rh_subscription are more extensive. pylint may be complaining incorrectly there, but the tests were not correctly un-doing all of their mock/patching. This cleans those up and makes pylint happy.
2018-07-01update_metadata: a datasource can support network re-config every bootChad Smith
Very basic type definitions are now defined to distinguish 'boot' events from 'new instance (first boot)'. Event types will now be handed to a datasource.update_metadata method which can determine whether to refresh its metadata and re-render configuration based on that source event. A datasource can 'subscribe' to an event by setting up the update_events attribute on the datasource class which describe what config scope is updated by a list of matching events. By default datasources will have the following update_events: {'network': [EventType.BOOT_NEW_INSTANCE]} This setting says the datasource will re-write network configuration only on first boot of a new instance or when the instance id changes. New methods are now present on the datasource: - clear_cached_attrs: Resets cached datasource attributes to values listed in datasource.cached_attr_defaults. This is performed prior to processing a fresh metadata process to avoid keeping old/invalid cached data around. - update_metadata: accepts source_event_types to determine if the metadata should be crawled again and processed
2018-06-15openstack: avoid unneeded metadata probe on non-openstack platformsChad Smith
OpenStack datasource is now discovered in init-local stage. In order to probe whether OpenStack metadata is present, it performs a costly sandboxed dhclient setup and metadata probe against http://169.254.169.254 for openstack data. Cloud-init properly detects non-OpenStack on EC2, but it spends precious time probing the metadata service also resulting in a confusing WARNING log about 'metadata not present'. To avoid the wasted cycles, and confusing warning, get_data will call a detect_openstack function to quickly determine whether the platform looks like OpenStack before trying to setup network to probe and crawl the metadata service. LP: #1776701
2018-05-29pyflakes: fix unused variable references identified by pyflakes 2.0.0.Scott Moser
A newer version of pyflakes (2.0.0) was released. It identifed some unused variables that version 1.6.0 did not identify. The change here merely fixes those unused variables.
2018-05-24Enable SmartOS network metadata to work with netplan via per-subnet routesDan McDonald
- Updated datadict reference URL - Store sdc:routes metadata in DatasourceSmartOS - Map sdc:routes values to per-interface subnet configuration - Added unittest Co-authored-by: Mike Gerdts <mike.gerdts@joyent.com> LP: #1763512
2018-05-23openstack: Allow discovery in init-local using dhclient in a sandbox.Chad Smith
Network has not yet been configured in the init-local stage so the openstack datasource will use dhcp-client to temporarily obtain an ipv4 address and query the metadata service at http://169.254.169.254 to get network_data.json configuration. If present, the datasource will return network_config version 1 config based on that network_data.json content. Previously OpenStack datasource only setup dhcp on the fallback interface so this represents a change in behavior to react to the full config provided by openstack. Also significant to OpenStack is the separation of a _crawl_data operation from get_data(). crawl_data walks the available metadata services and returns a dict of discovered content. get_data consumes the crawled_data,  caches it in the datasource and reacts to that data. /run/cloud-init/instance-data.json now published network_data.json or ec2_metadata key if that data is present on any datasource. The main reasons for the separation of crawl from get_data:  * Enable performance metrics of cloud-init's metadata crawls on each  * Enable cloud-init modules and scripts to query and consume metadata    content which may have updated/changed after cloud-init's initial cache    during instance boot. (Think hotplug) Also generalize common logic to base DataSource class/module:  * Move to a common UNSET variable up into base datasource module fix EC2,    ConfigDrive, OpenStack, SmartOS to use the global.  * Drop get_url_settings from Ec2, CloudStack and OpenStack and generalize    DataSource.get_url_params(). Allow subclasses to override url_max_wait,    url_timeout and url_retries params.  * Rename get_network_metadata bool to perform_dhcp_setup as it designates    whether EphemeralDHCPv4 setup is required before crawling metadata. LP: #1749717
2018-05-23Azure: Ignore NTFS mount errors when checking ephemeral drivePaul Meyer
The Azure data source provides a method to check whether a NTFS partition on the ephemeral disk is safe for reformatting to ext4. The method checks to see if there are customer data files on the disk. However, mounting the partition fails on systems that do not have the capability of mounting NTFS. Note that in this case, it is also very unlikely that the NTFS partition would have been used by the system (since it can't mount it). The only case would be where an update to the system removed the capability to mount NTFS, the likelihood of which is also very small. This change allows the reformatting of the ephemeral disk to ext4 on systems where mounting NTFS is not supported.
2018-05-17read_file_or_url: move to url_helper, fix bug in its FileResponse.Scott Moser
The result of a read_file_or_url on a file and on a url would differ in behavior. str(UrlResponse) would return UrlResponse.contents.decode('utf-8') while str(FileResponse) would return str(FileResponse.contents) The difference being "b'foo'" versus "foo". As part of the general goal of cleaning util, move read_file_or_url into url_helper.
2018-05-15ds-identify: recognize container-other as a container, test SmartOS.Scott Moser
In playing with a SmartOS container I found that ds-identify did not identify the container there as a container. Systemd-detect-virt identifies it as 'container-other'. Also here are tests for ds-identify for the SmartOS platform identification, and some indentation fixes in ds-identify.
2018-05-03azure: Add reported ready marker file.Joshua Chan
This change is for Azure VM Preprovisioning. A bug was found when after azure VMs report ready the first time, during the time when VM is polling indefinitely for the new ovf-env.xml from Instance Metadata Service (IMDS), if a reboot happens, we send another report ready signal to the fabric, which deletes the reprovisioning data on the node. This marker file is used to fix this issue so that we will only send a report ready signal to the fabric when no marker file is present. Then, create a marker file so that when a reboot does occur, we check if a marker file has been created and decide whether we would like to send the repot ready signal. LP: #1765214
2018-04-30IBMCloud: Disable config-drive and nocloud only if IBMCloud is enabled.Scott Moser
Ubuntu images on IBMCloud for 16.04 have some seed data in /var/lib/cloud/data/seed/nocloud-net. In order to have systems with IBMCloud enabled, we modified ds-identify detection to skip that seed if the system was on IBMCloud. That change did not consider the fact that IBMCloud might not be in the datasource list. There was similar logic in the ConfigDrive datasource in ds-identify and the datasource itself. Config drive is now updated to only check and avoid IBMCloud if IBMCloud is enabled. The check in ds-identify for nocloud was dropped. If a user provides a nocloud seed on IBMCloud, then that can be used. This means that systems running Xenial will continue to get their old datasources. LP: #1766401
2018-04-26IBMCloud: recognize provisioning environment during debug boots.Scott Moser
When images are deployed from template in a production environment the artifacts of the provisioning stage (provisioningConfiguration.cfg) that cloud-init referenced are cleaned up. However, when provisioned in "debug" mode (internal to IBM) the artifacts are left. This changes the 'is_ibm_provisioning' implementations in both ds-identify and in the IBM datasource to identify the provisioning stage more correctly. The change is to consider provisioning only if the provisioing file existed and there was no log file or the log file was older than this boot. LP: #1767166
2018-04-26net: detect unstable network names and trigger a settle if neededRyan Harper
The cloud-init-local.service expects that any network device name changes have already been completed by the kernel or udev daemon. In some situations we've found that the renaming of interfaces from kernel names (eth0, eth1, etc) to their persistent names (eno1, ens3, enp0s1, etc) may happen after cloud-init-local has started where it reads values from sysfs about what network devices are present, and which device to use as a fallback nic. Subsequently, cloud-init-local would write out network configuration for a kernel device name which would no longer be present by the time that networking services start to bring up the devices. The result is that the instance does not get networking configured. Prior to use of systemd-networkd, the Ubuntu 'networking.service' unit included a call to udevadm settle which is why this race is not seen on a Xenial system. This change adds the ability to detect if an interface has a stable name, if if we find one without stable names and stable names have not been disabled (net.ifnames=0 in /proc/cmdline), then cloud-init will invoke udevadm settle. LP: #1766287
2018-04-25IBMCloud: improve documentation in datasource.Scott Moser
This adds information to the IBMCloud datasource describing the 6 different scenarios that it is expected to handle.
2018-04-23DataSourceSmartOS: add locking of serial device.Mike Gerdts
cloud-init and mdata-get each have their own implementation of the SmartOS metadata protocol. If cloud-init and other services that call mdata-get are run concurrently, crosstalk on the serial port can cause them both to become confused. This change makes it so that cloud-init uses the same cooperative locking scheme that's used by mdata-get, thus preventing cross-talk between mdata-get and cloud-init. For testing, a VM running on a SmartOS host and pyserial are required. If the tests are run on a platform other than SmartOS, those that use a real serial port are skipped. pyserial remains commented in requirements.txt because most testers will not be running atop SmartOS. LP: #1746605
2018-04-20DataSourceSmartOS: sdc:hostname is ignoredMike Gerdts
There are three potential sources of the hostname, one of which is documented SmartOS's vmadm(1M) via the hostname property. That property's value is retrieved via the sdc:hostname key. The other two sources for the hostname are a hostname key in customer_metadata and the VM's uuid (sdc:uuid). Of these three, the sdc:hostname value is not used in a meaningful way by DataSourceSmartOS. This fix changes the fallback mechanism when hostname is not specified in customer_metadata. The order of precedence for setting the hostname is now 1) hostname in customer_metadata, 2) sdc:hostname, then 3) sdc:uuid. LP: #1765085
2018-04-20DataSourceSmartOS: list() should always return a listMike Gerdts
If customer_metadata has no keys, the KEYS request returns an empty string. Callers of the list() method expect a list to be returned and will give a stack trace if this expectation is not met. LP: #1763480
2018-04-19pylint: pay attention to unused variable warnings.Scott Moser
This enables warnings produced by pylint for unused variables (W0612), and fixes the existing errors.
2018-04-18DataSourceSmartOS: fix hang when metadata service is downMike Gerdts
If the metadata service in the host is down while a guest that uses DataSourceSmartOS is booting, the request from the guest falls into the bit bucket. When the metadata service is eventually started, the guest has no awareness of this and does not resend the request. This results in cloud-init hanging forever with a guest reboot as the only recovery option. This fix updates the metadata protocol to implement the initialization phase, just as is implemented by mdata-get and related utilities. The initialization phase includes draining all pending data from the serial port, writing an empty command and getting an expected error message in reply. If the initialization phase times out, it is retried every five seconds. Each timeout results in a warning message: "Timeout while initializing metadata client. Is the host metadata service running?" By default, warning messages are logged to the console, thus the reason for a hung boot is readily apparent. LP: #1667735
2018-04-18DataSourceSmartOS: change default fs on ephemeral disk from ext3 to ext4.Mike Gerdts
ext3 is not able to support file system sizes that are needed in Joyent's cloud. For the default block size of 4k, the maximum filesystem size for ext3 is 2^32 * 4096 = 16 TiB. This changes the default file system type from ext3 to ext4. LP: #1763511
