Open Stack

In addition to Seans comment I wanted to point out that you might need  
config-drive to ensure the VMs get their metadata since the neutron  
metadata service won't work on the external network. At least that's  
how we spin up instances in our external networks.
The cli option would be
'openstack server create --image ... --config-drive true <VM_NAME>'
