F5OS cloud-init on 21.1 does tenants come with DO and AS3 RPM installed?
Hello Everyone,
This great new feature
https://techdocs.f5.com/en-us/bigip-21-1-0/big-ip-f5os-cloud-init-support-velos-rseries/cloud-init-support-velos-rseries.html is not very well described. I think F5 making a demo session or a Guide with pictures will be helpful.
For example do the F5os Tenants come with RPM AS3 and DO installed by default for this to work ?
Other than that it is mentioned that the DO yaml file needs to be hosted on F5OS ? Where exactly ?

This is indeed an interesting new feature. I've read that before, but I didn't look into it further. +1 for a short demo and/or better description how to use it.
My current workflow is:
- Deploy the F5OS Tenants with a relatively simply API call
- Start my Declarative Onboarding Pipelines in GitLab
- Start the AS3 Pipelines
DO pipelines using the DO RPM work for F5OS tenants even before TMOS 21.1 ?
Yes, DO RPM works fine with all supported TMOS versions supported by F5OS. I onboard F5OS tenants regularly with DO.
Just make sure to configure the VLAN and trunk settings exactly as specified by F5OS.
I am struggling with testing cloud-init for F5OS tenants. I have read the documentation at:
But this does not help:
