# Cloud-Config Locations
|
|
|
|
On every boot, coreos-cloudinit looks for a config file to configure your host. Here is a list of locations which are used by the Cloud-Config utility, depending on your CoreOS platform:
|
|
|
|
Location | Description
|
|
--- | --- | ---
|
|
|`/media/configvirtfs/openstack/latest/user_data`|`/media/configvirtfs` mount point with [config-2](/os/docs/latest/config-drive.html#contents-and-format) label. It should contain a `openstack/latest/user_data` relative path. Usually used by cloud providers or in VM installations.|
|
|
|`/media/configdrive/openstack/latest/user_data`|FAT or ISO9660 filesystem with [config-2](/os/docs/latest/config-drive.html#qemu-virtfs) label and `/media/configdrive/` mount point. It should also contain a `openstack/latest/user_data` relative path. Usually used in installations which are configured by USB Flash sticks or CDROM media.|
|
|
|Kernel command line: `cloud-config-url=http://example.com/user_data`.| You can find this string using this command `cat /proc/cmdline`. Usually used in [PXE](/os/docs/latest/booting-with-pxe.html) or [iPXE](/os/docs/latest/booting-with-ipxe.html) boots.|
|
|
|`/var/lib/coreos-install/user_data`| When you install CoreOS manually using the [coreos-install](/os/docs/latest/installing-to-disk.html) tool. Usually used in bare metal installations.|
|
|
|`/usr/share/oem/cloud-config.yml`| Path for OEM images.|
|
|
|`/var/lib/coreos-vagrant/vagrantfile-user-data`| Vagrant OEM scripts automatically store Cloud-Config into this path. |
|
|
|`/var/lib/waagent/CustomData`| Azure platform uses OEM path for first Cloud-Config initialization and then `/var/lib/waagent/CustomData` to apply your settings.|
|
|
|`http://169.254.169.254/metadata/v1/user-data` `http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/user-data` `https://metadata.packet.net/userdata`|DigitalOcean, EC2 and Packet cloud providers correspondingly use these URLs to download Cloud-Config.|

|
|`/usr/share/oem/bin/vmtoolsd --cmd "info-get guestinfo.coreos.config.data"`|Cloud-Config provided by [VMware Backdoor][VMware Backdoor]|
|
|
|`/usr/share/oem/bin/vmtoolsd --cmd "info-get guestinfo.coreos.config.url"`|Cloud-Config URL provided by [VMware Backdoor][VMware Backdoor]|

You can also run the `coreos-cloudinit` tool manually and provide a path to your custom Cloud-Config file:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo coreos-cloudinit --from-file=/home/core/cloud-config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command will apply your custom cloud-config.
