David, Here are the instructions that I've got from one of the CS QA engineers, hope it helps.

I'm familiar with enabling these events in 4.2, however, I'm not all the familiar with Spring and given the new modularized changes I'm not really sure where the XML snippet belongs for the eventNotificationBus. Previously I had been placing this in applicationContext.xml (or the simulatorComponentContext.xml in the case of the Simulator). If you could point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks! XML sample for reference: <bean id="eventNotificationBus" class="org.apache.cloudstack.mom.rabbitmq.RabbitMQEventBus"> <property name="name" value="eventNotificationBus"/> <property name="server" value="localhost"/> <property name="port" value="5672"/> <property name="username" value="guest"/> <property name="password" value="guest"/> <property name="exchange" value="cloudstack-events"/> </bean> -- David Grizzanti Software Engineer Sungard Availability Services e: david.grizza...@sungard.com<mailto:david.grizza...@sungard.com> w: 215.446.1431 c: 570.575.0315
