   > Hi @mlsorensen after days of hunting and investigation we think the 
smoketests failure on the PR have to do with missing entropy and pkgs for 
default/stock el7. I've added a commit to add those as dependencies - 
[a240c3b](https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/commit/a240c3ba5d3637a0965d4b1a7a13b9e45200f881)
   > 
   > Do you think/know if that's the case and there's additional entropy 
requirement (i.e for random number generation)? (we think this was found from 
our CI/CD which is virtualised and may not always be fast and have entropy like 
a baremetal env would). We found that by using `SecureRandom random = 
SecureRandom.getInstanceStrong()` it blocks the mgmt server and perhaps 
explains why the marvin tests would fail with not able to run API on mgmt 
server port 8096 (connection refused).

   Yes, thanks! This is the `rng-tools` callout in the initial PR documentation 
above.  Just wasn't sure if it was proper to make this an actual requirement, 
but it seems at least for virtualized system testing it blocks too much without 
this.
