Hi,<br>
<br>
The test step followed for user-data as follows.<br>
<br>
1. Got image from <a href="http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/precise/current/precise-server-cloudimg-i386-disk1.img" target="_blank">http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/precise/current/precise-server-cloudimg-i386-disk1.img</a><br>
<br>
2. Booted it from Horizon and passed the script in the file<br>
<br>
#!/bin/sh<br>
mkdir /home/ubuntu/testdir<br>
<br>
3. Logged in to the machine with<br>
<br>
ssh -i <mykey.pub> ubuntu@IP<br>
<br>
And i can see the directory created.<br>
<br>
<br>
File injection via Horizon uses cloud-init and i have tested it on Ubuntu 12.04 i have no idea about other distributions.<br>
<br>
You can file more about cloud-init here :- <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit</a><br>
<br>
And thanks, i will add this in the doc somewhere. :)<br>
<br>
Hope it helps.<br>
<br>

Hi,<br>
<snip><br>
I have some doubts regarding File Injection.<br>
Can File Injection can be done through Horizon, while creating an Instance?<br>
While creating an Instance from Horizon, a field called 'User Data' [text area] is there. Is that field is related to File Injection? Can anyone tell me, the values we need to give for 'User Data'?<br>
</snip><br>
Yes.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers!!<br>
