Check which cloud-init template you have associated by viewing the host's Templates tab (on the left), it needs to be YAML format.

I create cloud-init template with this content.

Virtual machine suceftully create from template but:
1. I set storage as 25GB in template set storage set as 50GB, in new VM storage size not changed. This correctly or bug?
2. Network adapter in new VM is disabled.
3. VM after create in foreman interface marked as "pending installation".

Is the template showing as linked to the host, either on the Templates tab or via the Resolve Templates button when editing the host?

Bug, but fixed for 1.10 via #9705.

2. Network adapter in new VM is disabled.
3. VM after create in foreman interface marked as "pending installation".

Probably because of this failure.

Thanks!

Probably because of this failure.

But, disabled network adapter is bug of the foreman or my template?

Not sure, if you're hitting an exception during provisioning then all bets are off about the final state of the VM. I don't know why you're seeing this error, leaving the ticket open.

Please close this ticket, error with " undefined method `key?" is not actually.

Do you know what the cause was in the end? It might be useful to record it for others.

If it's still happening after the exception's fixed, then yep, could be worthwhile. Also it might be worth trying on nightlies in a couple of days time (once built) since the fix I mentioned above for storage also changed how network interfaces are cloned, and was only just merged to nightlies.

Yes, cause in invalid YAML in my cloud init template. May be add checking YAML validate, or add example cloud-init template in default configuration?

Thanks! I try backport this changes in my 1.9 or try nightly.

Interesting, syntax check might be something to raise to Fog as it appears to all be there. If you have a useful template that might serve as a default, please submit it to https://github.com/theforeman/community-templates/tree/develop/cloudinit
