Bootstrap Data
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
You can use one or more mechanisms to pass information to a new |VNF| when it
|
|
is originally launched. The |VNF| can use this information for system
|
|
configuration purposes or to determine running options for the services it
|
|
provides.
|
|
|
|
The mechanisms used to convey information from the Cloud OS to the |VNF| are
|
|
the metadata server and config drive.

|
|
|
|
- User data is made available to the |VNF| through either the metadata
|
|
service or the configuration drive.
|
|
|
|
- The cloud-init package reads information from either the metadata
|
|
server or the configuration drive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Detailed information about the OpenStack metadata server, config drive, and
|
|
cloud-init is available online.
