Also, to the original question, the password is meant to be temporary — you are supposed to login to the vm and change it to whatever standards you have.

It is better to use ConfigKey class to define configuration parameters, this handles default values in case of NULL or db entry missing and no need to put in upgrade script. static final ConfigKey<Long> CustomDiskOfferingMaxSize = new ConfigKey<Long>("Advanced", Long.class, "custom.diskoffering.size.max", "1024", "Maximum size in GB for custom disk offering.", true ); More info@ https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Configuration Thanks Harikrishna On 26-Jun-2014, at 10:39 am, Koushik Das <koushik....@citrix.com<mailto:koushik....@citrix.com>> wrote: Shouldn't the code handle the scenario if vm.password.length is missing from db?

Daan, will you review / cherrypick? 96412e3e58fd1ced9d269e4552aaa6410bedf556 Testing done: Brought up simulator. Changed password flag for the builtin template. Brought up VM, password was displayed at length of 6. Stopped the VM, reset the password, new password was displayed at length of 6. Went into global settings, modified the value for vm.password.length to 20. Restarted the management server. Created a new VM, password was displayed at length of 20. Stopped the VM, reset the password, new password was displayed at length of 20.

You should ask if this can be done as global setting variable - not hard coded. This should be an easy one.
