> I think as a first step once you've read basic CloudStack [dev training](https://github.com/shapeblue/hackerbook/blob/main/2-dev.md), you'll need to figure out code in the KVM hypervisor plugin which perhaps currently doesn't allow unmanaged VMs to run on KVM host (i.e. VMs not managed by CloudStack I think aren't allowed to run on KVM hosts currently - I could be wrong). You can use [mbx](https://github.com/shapeblue/mbx/tree/main) for local dev setup etc. as well. > > Once this is done (which might take most of your initial training/getting up to speed time), following the advise Nicolas has proposed should be easier to implement. Hi @rohityadavcloud thank you for the pointers! To verify whether cloudstack allows unmanaged VM's to run on a KVM host I performed the following steps : 1. Extended unmanaged VM's support to KVM by implementing PrepareUnmanageVMInstanceCommand in KVM plugin in pull request #7712 2. Started a new VM in cloudstack on KVM 3. Executed unmangeVirtualMachine API to unmanage the previously added virtual machine in step 2. 4. Verified that the virtual machine is still running on the KVM host but not presenting cloudstack management server database. Do you think this will suffice to test the corner case that you mentioned ? Please let me know if you have any other advice for validating the support for unmanage VM's existence in cloudstack + KVM setup. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
