I was able to create a work around and several community builders tested it out for me and it works.
I will not submit to docs as it's a hack, but I have updated the JIRA ticket. Work around can be found at: http://cloud.kelceydamage.com/cloudfire/blog/2013/10/08/conquering-the-cloudstack-4-2-dragon-kvm/ Thanks, -Kelcey Sent from my HTC ----- Reply message ----- From: "Soheil Eizadi" <seiz...@infoblox.com> To: "dev@cloudstack.apache.org" <dev@cloudstack.apache.org> Subject: System VM template caching Date: Tue, Oct 8, 2013 9:49 PM This seems similar to a problem I had on 4.3 Master with System VM creation. If it is the same problem you can check from API command ListTemplateCommand(), from CloudMonkey and see if it returns a bogus cached value. Then you know it is the same problem. -Soheil http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/cloudstack-dev/201309.mbox/%3c6717ec2e5a665a40a5af626d7d4fa90625e2e...@x2008mb1.infoblox.com%3E ________________________________________ From: Kelcey Jamison Damage [kel...@backbonetechnology.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2013 12:19 PM To: Cloud Dev Subject: [ACS 4.2][Upgrade Issue] System VM template caching Hi, Several of us in the community have found that with the 4.2 upgrade, when we download and install the latest system VM template, CloudStack refuses to use this template for new system VM creation. CloudStack appears to be usin a cached or master-clone variant of the old template. This is causing may KVM+ 4.2 users to have broken clouds, A bug report has been filed: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4826 My question is: Does anyone know where this cached template is stored? when CloudStack goes to make a new system VM, where does it look first for the template? We have observed through testing that this is no secondary storage. Thanks in advance.
