Open Stack

AFAIK cloud-init is not handling it ATM, while Cloudbase-Init supports it out of the box on Windows (and soon FreeBSD).

You need to deploy your instance with an SSH keypair and use HTTP metadata, required for POSTing back the encrypted password.
It does not work with ConfigDrive.

Get password only works if you have something in the guest generating the
encrypted password and posting it to the metadata server. Cloud-init for
windows (the primary use case) will do this for you. You can do something
similar for ubuntu using this script:

If cirros has usermod and openssl installed it may work there as well. Note
that you can pass the script in as userdata (see the comments at the end).

Hi,

I used devstack to deploy Juno OpenStack.

I spin up an instance with cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-uec.

By default, useranme/password is cirrus/cubswin:)

When I execute the command “nova get-password”, nothing is returned.

localadmin at qa4:/etc/nova$ nova help get-password
usage: nova get-password <server> [<private-key>]

Get password for a server.

Positional arguments:
  <server>       Name or ID of server.
  <private-key>  Private key (used locally to decrypt password) (Optional).
                 When specified, the command displays the clear (decrypted) VM
                 password. When not specified, the ciphered VM password is
                 displayed.
localadmin at qa4:/etc/nova$ nova get-password vm1
                                      <<<<<[NOTHING RETURNED]
localadmin at qa4:/etc/nova$

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Danny
