** Description changed:
+ [SRU Justification]
+ WALinuxAgent prior to 2.0.13 will crash on large size VM's due to a race condition. Newer VM types and large VM's are affected. Further,
+
+ [FIX]
+ WALinuxAgent 2.0.13 contains several fixes including:
+ - Handle http 410 returned by host
+ - Add support for http proxy
+ - Add support to execute CustomData after provisioning
+ - Add a udev rule for product-uuid
+ - Update service start/stop command for Ubuntu
+
+
+ [TEST CASES]
+ Test Case 1:
+ - Launch Ubuntu instance
+ - Upgrade walinuxagent from -proposed
+ - Check /var/log/waagent for errors
+ - Reboot
+ - Check /var/log/waagent.log for errors
+ - Confirm that /var/log/waagent.log is running
+
+ Test Case 2:
+ - Shutdown instance from Test Case 1
+ - Capture VM
+ - Launch new instance from Capture VM
+ - Confirm instance comes up with new identity
+ - Confirm /var/lib/waagent/SharedConfig.xml exists
+ - Confirm that "waagent" is running
+
+ Test Case 3:
+ - Build new image from -proposed
+ - Boot new image
+ - Confirm that instance provisioned
+
+ [RISK]
+ Limited to moderate. The update to 2.0.13 for 12.04 (currently at 2.0.8) contains new features, which are required for provisioning on newer VM types. Extensive testing of the new agent by both Microsoft and the Canonical Cloud Image has been and will be performed in order to capture any fall out.
+
+ For Ubuntu 14.04 and later which have version 2.0.12, the changes are
+ far less invasive and can be categorized as code-hardening. A
+ substantial portion of changes are are for other distributions.
+
+ ------
