+Apache CloudStack Advisory on KVM Shared Mount Point issues on version 4.17.0.0
+===============================================================================
+
+On 14th June 2022, a new issue affecting only KVM users using Shared
+Mount Point storage was reported [1]. This issue affects the creation
+and the usage of existing Shared Mount Point storage pools on Apache
+CloudStack 4.17.0.0.
+
+Apache CloudStack 4.17.0.0 added support for the StorPool storage
+based on Shared Mount Point. However, the current version of
+CloudStack doesn't allow multiple implementations of Shared Mount
+Point storage pool providers, causing the StorPool provider to
+override the default implementation. This affected the other storage
+pool providers for Shared Mount Point since CloudStack tries to add
+them as a StorPool storage pool.
+
+To mitigate the issue, a CloudStack administrator needs to do the
+following on version 4.17.0.0:
+- On each management server: stop the CloudStack management service,
+remove the Storpool plugin jar on
+/usr/share/cloudstack-management/lib/cloud-plugin-storage-volume-storpool-4.17.0.0.jar
+and restart the Cloudstack management service
+- On each KVM host: stop the CloudStack agent service, remove the
+StorPool plugin jar on
+/usr/share/cloudstack-agent/lib/cloud-plugin-storage-volume-storpool-4.17.0.0.jar
+and restart the CloudStack agent service
+
+Note: This workaround removes the StorPool plugin support. StorPool
+users should not apply the workaround to continue using their Storpool
+storage.
+
+This issue will be fixed in the upcoming CloudStack version 4.17.1.0.
