Dear all,
I scrutinized the CloudStack management logs during my failed upgrade
attempt from CloudStack 4.1.1 to 4.2.0 and found this on the log:

It seems that after the upgrade, the CloudStack management server tries to
create the system VMs using the old template rather than the new 4.2
template.
I did use the wrong filename when registering the template
(systemvm-kvm-4.2.0 instead of systemvm-kvm-4.2) due to wrong information
given by Abhinav but I have since corrected it prior to the upgrade, by
renaming the template name (rather than deleting the template and
re-register it).
My questions:
1. Do I need to get the template name right when I register the
systemvm-kvm-4.2 template from the beginning, prior to the upgrade?
2. Do I need to delete the old system VM template from the template list,
prior to the upgrade? If yes, I think this should be inside the
documentation.
Looking forward to your reply, thank you.
Cheers.
