Setting prompt is implemented by creating /etc/profile.d/prompt.sh
. Every
user can have different prompt.
linux:
system:
prompt:
root: \\n\\[\\033[0;37m\\]\\D{%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S} $(hostname -f)\\[\\e[0m\\]\\n\\[\\e[1;31m\\][\\u@\\h:\\w]\\[\\e[0m\\]
default: \\n\\D{%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S} $(hostname -f)\\n[\\u@\\h:\\w]
On Debian systems to set prompt system-wide it's necessary to remove setting
PS1 in /etc/bash.bashrc
and ~/.bashrc
(which comes from
/etc/skel/.bashrc
). This formula will do this automatically, but will not
touch existing user's ~/.bashrc
files except root.
Fix bash configuration to preserve history across sessions (like ZSH does by default).
linux:
system:
bash:
preserve_history: true
/etc/issue is a text file which contains a message or system identification to be printed before the login prompt. It may contain various @char and char sequences, if supported by the getty-type program employed on the system.

Debian manual proto interfaces
When you are changing interface proto from static in up state to manual, you
may need to flush ip addresses. For example, if you want to use the interface
and the ip on the bridge. This can be done by setting the ipflush_onchange
to true.
linux:
network:
interface:
eth1:
enabled: true
type: eth
proto: manual
mtu: 9100
ipflush_onchange: true
Debian static proto interfaces
When you are changing interface proto from dhcp in up state to static, you
may need to flush ip addresses and restart interface to assign ip address from a managed file.
For example, if you want to use the interface and the ip on the bridge.
This can be done by setting the ipflush_onchange
with combination
restart_on_ipflush
param set to to true.
linux:
network:
interface:
eth1:
enabled: true
type: eth
proto: static
address: 10.1.0.22
netmask: 255.255.255.0
ipflush_onchange: true
restart_on_ipflush: true
Concatinating and removing interface files
Debian based distributions have /etc/network/interfaces.d/ directory, where you can store configuration of network interfaces in separate files. You can concatinate the files to the defined destination when needed, this operation removes the file from the /etc/network/interfaces.d/. If you just need to remove iface files, you can use the remove_iface_files key.
linux:
network:
concat_iface_files:
- src: '/etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg'
dst: '/etc/network/interfaces'
remove_iface_files:
- '/etc/network/interfaces.d/90-custom.cfg'

Configure global environment variables
Use /etc/environment
for static system wide variable assignment after
boot. Variable expansion is frequently not supported.
linux:

- /srv/bob/bin
...
ftp_proxy: none
http_proxy: http://global-http-proxy.host.local:8080

# NOTE: global defaults proxy configuration.

Configure profile.d scripts
The profile.d scripts are being sourced during .sh execution and support
variable expansion in opposite to /etc/environment global settings in
/etc/environment
.
linux:

export LC_ALL=C

export NO_PROXY='.local'
Linux with hosts
Parameter purge_hosts will enforce whole /etc/hosts file, removing entries that are not defined in model except defaults for both IPv4 and IPv6 localhost and hostname + fqdn.
It's good to use this option if you want to ensure /etc/hosts is always in a clean state however it's not enabled by default for safety.
linux:
network:
purge_hosts: true
host:
# No need to define this one if purge_hosts is true
hostname:

Netconsole logger could be configured for configfs-enabled kernels (CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC should be enabled). Configuration applies both in runtime (if network is already configured), and on-boot after interface initialization. Notes:
- receiver could be located only in same L3 domain (or you need to configure gateway MAC manually)
- receiver's MAC is detected only on configuration time
- using broadcast MAC is not recommended
parameters:
linux:
system:
netconsole:
enabled: true
port: 514 (optional)
loglevel: debug (optional)
target:
192.168.0.1:
interface: bond0
