## ๐ฏ Triage report A user reports difficulty importing VMs to CloudStack when using Hyper-V as a hypervisor and asks whether Hyper-V (Windows Server 2016) can be integrated with CloudStack. Maintainers already responded that the Hyper-V plugin is unmaintained and has a backlog; a newer external-provisioner framework (PR #9752) was suggested as an alternative path. The issue has been open since Dec 2024 with no volunteer stepping up, and was auto-marked stale in Dec 2025. ### ๐ Assessment | Dimension | Value | Reasoning | |---|---|---| | **Type** | type:question | Originally a support/how-to request rather than a well-defined bug or feature; no reproducible steps or logs were ever supplied. | | **Component** | none | Hyper-V has no dedicated component label in this repo; closest existing labels (e.g. XenServer, vmware) don't apply. | | **Severity** | n/a | Not a bug report. | | **Labels** | type:question, status:Help-wanted | Marking as help-wanted since maintainers explicitly stated the Hyper-V plugin needs a volunteer owner. | | **Coding agent** | Not suitable | Requires an owner to evaluate/maintain an entire legacy hypervisor plugin โ not a well-scoped, self-contained code task. | ### ๐ Similar issues - https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/8738 (related) โ another "unable to create instance on Hyper-V host" report, same underlying unmaintained-plugin theme. - https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/10361 (related) โ discussion on modern Windows hypervisors vs. external framework, directly relevant to the alternative approach suggested here. - https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/13824 (related) โ about modernizing Hyper-V enlightenment profile for Windows guests on KVM, adjacent but different scope (guest OS tuning, not host integration). <details><summary>๐ก Notes and suggestions</summary> - The maintainer conversation already answers the core question: Hyper-V as a **guest OS** works, but as a **host hypervisor** the plugin is unmaintained and its current compatibility is unknown. - If no one volunteers to own/verify the Hyper-V host plugin, this could eventually be closed as `status:wontfix` or redirected to the external-provisioner framework (PR #9752, design doc linked in the thread). - Given the long inactivity and stale-bot flag, a maintainer may want to close this with a pointer to the external deployment integration effort rather than keep it open indefinitely. </details> > Generated by [Daily Issue Triage](https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/actions/runs/35867756133) ยท sonnet50 140.8K ยท [โท](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Fcloudstack+%22gh-aw-workflow-call-id%3A+apache%2Fcloudstack%2Fdaily-issue-triage%22&type=issues) > <details> <summary>Add this agentic workflows to your repo</summary> To install this agentic workflow, run ``` gh aw add githubnext/agentics/workflows/daily-issue-triage.md@d7c1dc4b72b00607a67caaffdcc216cb64379cf9 ``` </details> <!-- gh-aw-agentic-workflow: Daily Issue Triage, engine: copilot, version: 1.0.52, model: claude-sonnet-5, id: 35867756133, workflow_id: daily-issue-triage, run: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/actions/runs/35867756133 --> <!-- gh-aw-workflow-call-id: apache/cloudstack/daily-issue-triage --> -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
