I think there are three pieces in play. First there are guest OSes, second
the management server and third the hypervisors themselves. For the
hypervisors and management server I can see a more stringent set of
requirements. Going by the XenServer experience, legacy guests should
continue to work,
ity?

dom0 already has a DHCP server listening for requests on internal
management networks. I'd be wary trying to manage it from an external
service like cloudstack lest it get reset upon XenServer patch. This alone
makes me favor option #2. I also think option #2 simplifies network design
for users.
PLD,
One thing to add to your testing is template management. When I was doing
all the Packer stuff with XS 6.5 and 7, ACS needed to know if the template
was PV or HVM to provision properly. No idea if the ACS template logic has
changed since then, but something to be aware of.
>From a
Syed,
I did a bunch of work on XenServer with Packer [1] before leaving Citrix.
My stuff works rather well and was tested with XS 6.2, 6.5 and 7. It
shouldn't be hard to validate with newest XS and updated Packer - I just
lack the infra to do the testing.

creating a base class which always works (i.e. is independent of XenServer
