Great, I'll pick up the issue that Wido has already created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8645
Does anyone have an suggestions wrt to structure of pull requests? I'm inclinded to ask the community for copies of logs - particularly ones that people have found difficult to read so that I or others can work through them looking for anamolies - it's very messy from a thoroughness point of view - but it would return the most useful changes first. It also puts the error msg in a context to make the categorisation more acurate.
