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

[sachidananda sahu]

Hello Andres,
Even i am able to find the setting to change package repositories from the
default archives to local mirrors (or different mirrors). in Maas 1.9

Let me try this by changing and will update you further.

Thanks a lot for the help.
