Our PROD is in 2.2.13, using Advaned Zone and SG enabled.
But we don't use SG features. We use vmWare.
We try to upgrade our pre-production environment to 4.1, but we failed due to the CLOUDSTACK-2463 bug.
We have not managed to update 4.0, and we would pass the 4.1.

One other note...  From what I can tell, the work intended for 4.2 to
re-enable security groups within an advanced zone is limited to Xen and
KVM.  I believe that Nicolas (the issue reporter) is using VMware.

We do have a note from Wei (below) highlighting his desire to see this
feature as well (although, Wei, what HV are you using?).

Thoughts on what to do?

Subject: Re: [ACS41] Discuss CLOUDSTACK-2463 being resolved in 4.1 vs 4.2

Half of our platforms are on 2.2.14 (advanced zone with security groups).
These platform work well. We are looking for a way to upgrade to 4.* for
more functionalities, so that we do not need to take the difference of
cloudstack version into account in development.

As I know, the citrix guys are working on this. Jessica Wang said the feature
will be merged into master branch soon.It looks the coding is almost done.

I hope this feature could be included in 4.1, of course. However, we also
need some days for testing and bug fix. It means cloudstack 4.1 will delay for
uncertain days (it is very bad, right?). It is a difficult choice.

I do not know how many companies are using 2.2.14  (advanced zone with
security groups) and eager to upgrade. I will join the dev and testing if
needed.

Sebastian re-opened CLOUDSTACK-2463 due to users wanting to upgrade
from 2.x to 4.1.  This relates to the security groups feature being
available when using VLANs in an advanced networking zone.  This
feature was apparently broken in the 3.x series, and is not slated to
be reintroduced until 4.2.

This is a horrible situation, and one that we've now encountered for a
third time.

IMO, we have 2 very specific options:

1) We pull that new feature into 4.1, and do the relevant testing.

2) We do not pull that feature into 4.1, and release as is with a
strong message in the release notes highlighting that we know that 2.x
to 4.1 will not support it (and state that those users requiring the
feature should wait for 4.2).

At this point, I don't have a preference.  We probably need to
understand the effort for (1), as well as understand who would do that
work (dev AND testing).

Thoughts?
