Limited information in rancher-metadata/latest/self/ on some containers

Archive Rancher 1.x

I’ve got a container running that I’m exploring the metadata API with, but I’m seeing very limited data on it.
When doing curl rancher-metadata/latest/self/, I only get the following response:

host/

This is different from other containers that list endpoints such as container/, etc.

The only different here is that this container is running in Host networking mode (with Rancher server discovery turned on).
It is not running as a privileged container.

Is this expected behavior since it’s on host networking?

This is expected behaviour as it’s on host networking. There is less information for any containers that are started with net: host.
