How to launch a VM using cloud-init script

Let's say you need to launch a VM using Multipass that runs juju 3.0/stable with:

  • 4G RAM
  • 3 CPUs
  • 30G disk
  • and mounting your repos directory inside the ubuntu user home directory

you may run:

multipass launch --cloud-init charm-dev-juju-3.0.yaml \
--timeout 1200 \
--name charm-dev-juju-3 \
--memory 4G \
--cpus 3 \
--disk 30G \
--mount /home/jose/trabajos/canonical/repos:/home/ubuntu/repos

Once the VM is ready you will see:

Launched: charm-dev-juju-3
Mounted '/home/jose/trabajos/canonical/repos' into 'charm-dev-juju-3:/home/ubuntu/repos'

Now you can jump into the new VM:

multipass shell charm-dev-juju-3
