You will run into this issue if the Windows Recovery partition is the last

Attempted to perform a live migration of a UEFI VM and was unable to select
a target host for migration. Noted this message in the management server
logs when I tried another time.

Is there anything to look out for or a process to follow when migrating
Secure boot VMs from other platforms to cloudstack? Having no issues
starting up new VMs within my environment, but for VMs moved from other
systems they start, but in the case of WIndows VMs, they fail to boot and
then end up
What I've done
- Stop the VM from within Cloudstack
- Login to a cloudstack host, and locate/rename the qcow file(s) you want
to restore
- From the NetApp CLI, perform a "volume snapshot restore-file" with the
appropriate parameters to restore individual files from the snapshot of
your choice. This
Not sure what storage system you are using, but with NetApp as the backend,
you can
- Stop the VM from within Cloudstack
- Login to a host, locate the volume(s) you want to restore and rename
them (XXX.bak)

I have a question about asynchronous jobs. My understanding is that any
async jobs will be recorded in the async_jobs table in the database. They
should have a value in the job_complete_msid table when they are done, and
then be removed 24 hours later.
Every once in a while, we will have a job tha

I am currently running an older version of Cloudstack (4.11) on top of
CentOS 7 and using qemu-kvm-ev from the CentOS Virtualization SIG. I am
looking at migrating to Rocky Linux 8.9 and a newer version of Cloudstack,
but I'm running into issues w qemu-kvm-ev. Am I correct in stating that

The Cloudstack Install Guide has the following statement - "All hosts
within a cluster must be homogenous. The CPUs must be of the same type,
count, and feature flags"
Obviously this means we can't mix Intel and AMD CPUs within the same
cluster. However, for a cluster with Intel CPUs, how much if

I am running Cloudstack 4.11 and have encountered an issue with hot added
NICs on Windows guests. I add the NIC to a running guest, configure it, and
it works as expected. After the guest reboots, the NIC is assigned to a
different PCI slot, and then needs to be reconfigured. This has caused
issues
I've performed some migrations of Vmware guests to Cloudstack. What are
your questions?

Yes there is a limitation. All hosts within a cluster must be on the same
OS.

Just went through this process.
- I installed Windows Server 2022 to a VM, installed the VirtIO drivers,
made the other changes I wanted to the image
- Ran sysprep with the shutdown and OOBE experience options
- Made a template from the volume
Biggest issue I had was dealing with where Windows 202
Not Cloudstack integrated, but would pfsense/opnsense be an option?

I'm curious what datapoints people are using for capacity planning within
their Cloudstack environment and what benchmarks are you setting to decide
that you need to add additional capacity to your cluster? To this point,
I've been tracking % used memory per node, as well 5m/15m load per core
along
Anything else different about the setup? Interface speeds? Routed vs flat
network? MTU size being used by the network interfaces perhaps?

Obviously a bit of a broad topic, but I'm curious what metrics people are
using to monitor the health and performance of their Cloudstack
installations? Disk space / total CPU load / load per core are the obvious
ones. What are any of you doing from a network standpoint? Do you dig into

I'm working on migrating an existing cluster to new servers, I have two new
servers, which I have tested by adding them to their own cluster within an
existing pod. I have been able to successfully complete live migrations
between these two servers. I then removed the servers from this test
cluster
nd then start them up on the new cluster.

It really feels like I'mrunning into some weird issue with the virtio
drivers on Windows. My Windows hosts are (to my knowledge) using the latest
version of the virtio drivers - 100.90.104.21700 dated 2/23/2022.
