Description Jonathan Süssemilch Poulain 2014-08-01 21:02:31 UTC
Description of problem:
When booting a CentOS 7 vm with cloud-init configured network cloud-init-local.service hangs when bringing up the configured interface and never finishes the rest of the user-data script. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7.x


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a vm, install CentOS 7 add EPEL 7 beta repo. Install cloud-init.
2. Boot vm with static network configuration for eth0 and some random user-data script.
3. Log in to vm and run: systemctl status cloud-init-local.service

Actual results:
[root@localhost xxxxx]# systemctl status cloud-init-local.service

Expected results:
Something like this

cloud-init-local.service - Initial cloud-init job (pre-networking)
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/cloud-init-local.service; disabled)
   Active: active (exited) since fre 2014-08-01 23:00:32 CEST; 6s ago
 Main PID: 897 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
   CGroup: /system.slice/cloud-init-local.service

And vm booted with network interface configured and up, user-data script finished running.

Additional info:
With this SELinux policy loaded the vm boots as expected.

I am experiencing this problem too when trying to build a CentOS 7 image. It seems weird that there aren't many other Google search results; almost as if no one else is having experiencing this or every just turns off SELINUX or something?

This package is no longer included in epel7. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/cloud-init/c/aeebc66ebb93afe224cc4752a58955dad03a5dde?branch=epel7
