Any changes to system VM templates require considerable testing. Pl do not make changes at this time for System VM templates unless there is a defect fix needed.

And the generated system vm template for each target hypervisor don't have hypervisor specific guest tools installed in it. It has open-vm tools not hypervisor specific. I think it would be good to have xentools installed in Xenserver specific system vm temapltes, vmware-tools in vmware specific system vm templates. AFAIK Hypervisor specific tools installed in system vm will give good performance. Thanks Rajesh Battala
