Cloud-config Reference

All custom configuration applied on top of a fresh deployment should come from the cloud-config section in a MachineRegistration.

This will get run by elemental-cli run-stage during the boot stage, and it will be stored in the node under the /oem dir.

Elemental uses yip to run these cloud-config files, so we support the yip subset cloud-config implementation.

Below is an example of the supported configuration on a MachineRegistration resource.
