Add Cloud-init Script and Key to a VDU

You can customize a VDU in your Network Function by adding Cloud-init scripts. You can also provide a VMware Integrated OpenStack key to the VDU.

Add the Cloud-init script and the key by editing the NFD.yaml file. Perform the following steps:

Procedure

1. Log in to the VMware Telco Cloud Automation web interface.
2. Go to Catalog > Network Function.
3. Select the desired Network Function, click the ⋮ menu, and click Edit.
4. Click the Resources tab and click Edit (pencil icon) against NFD.yaml.
5. Under the VDU properties, update the values of key_name and user-data under the boot_data property.
