Understood, and you are right. KVM + iSCSI/shared mount point (requires
clustered file system), is, from my POV, a no-go for production (it's
different with VMware and XenSeverm whos's support for such thing is
excellent/for production use)

Unless CloudStack has a way to automatically attach iSCSI storage to each
virtual machine directly then a clustered filesystem (C-LVM or OCFS2) is needed
to store the VM data as it is the only way to have all compute hosts to have
access to the same data for live migrations and HA when using iS
Struggling to understand why you are mentioning a clustered filesystem on
Linux? (but I do agree all of them are to be avoided, 99% of the time)

We currently use Hyper-V with an iSCSI SAN since Hyper-V does excellent at fast
shared storage with Windows CSV. The system is reliable but very inflexible to
changes in strategies when deploying workloads.
Moving to Linux as a hypervisor isn't too much of an issue as we do use Ubuntu
20.x f
It goes without saying that once a big company get's interest in i.e.
Hyper-V and sponsors the needed development - that is usually a time when
such a huge feature goes in ACS.
Do you need any recommendations from real-life on what to go with, in the
CloudStack world?

That is a pity. Hyper-V Server 2019 for example is excellent with great
enterprise software support like backup facilities, clustered filesystem (iSCSI
SAN's, etc).
Suppose unless there is traction like with OpenStack (with Hyper-V support),
getting the time and developers to deal with it in
Unfortunately, I don't thinking CloudStack actually supports (in reality)
hyper-v any more - there was the original implementation for Hyper V 2012,
but not sure it works any more, at all (and the "VM import" option is
available only for VMware, not any other hypervisor, atm)
