At Rackspace we're running into an interesting problem: Consider a user<br>
who boots an instance in Nova with an image which only supports SSH<br>
public-key authentication, but the user doesn't provide a public key in<br>
the boot request. As far as I understand it, today Nova will happily<br>
boot that image and it may take the user some time to realize their<br>
mistake when they can't login to the instance.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>What about images where the authentication information is inside the image? For example, there's just a standard account baked in that everyone knows about? In that case Nova doesn't need to inject anything into the instance, and therefore the metadata doesn't need to supply anything.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Michael</div><div> </div></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature">Rackspace Australia</div>
