flatcar-openstack-hostname.service not using config-drive as default for scraping metadata #1445
Description
Description
When booting up a Flatcar instance in OpenStack using Ignition and config-drive, flatcar-openstack-hostname.service is retrieving information from metadata API instead of trying config-drive first.
Impact
Information on config-drive is ignored which might be a problem on environments where metadata API cannot be used.
Environment and steps to reproduce
- Set-up: Create an OpenStack instance using "Flatcar Container Linux by Kinvolk 3815.2.2 for Openstack" image. Enable config-drive for it and provide any ignition config via userdata.
- Task: Boot up the instance.
- Action(s): Boot up the instance.
- Error: Checking the logs of flatcar-openstack-hostname.service, service is connecting to metadata API instead of using existing config-drive.
Expected behavior
Existing values under /media/configdrive/ should be used. As implemented on coreos/afterburn#462.

Unsure whether this is relevant, but https://github.com/flatcar/bootengine/blob/flatcar-master/dracut/30ignition/flatcar-openstack-hostname.service#L17 is using openstack-metadata instead of openstack.
