Changing userdata in MAAS for customizing the enlisting, commissioning and deploying

[sachidananda sahu]

Hi Andres,
Thanks for quick reply, really appreciate it :-)

Need couple of clarification from you,
1> If i change the repo by this process does maas will always use the
configured repo for all phase (enlisting, commissioning , deploying) phase

2> But unfortunately i am using maas 1.9, will this similar option/feature
exist where i can change the apt mirror to point different location.
3> As MAAS 1.9 i am able to change the apt sources for enlisting by
changing the userdata, is it possible to similar for other phases ?

Thanks,
