Marcus,

I was away for a bit and missed this message, i'll be standing up KVM environments soon and can try this commit - though it may take some time.

Thank you,

Regards
ilya

I have an agent for you to try. you can force install the RPM over the top of your existing 4.3 one and restart the agent. If you have an issue you can just reinstall the stock RPM and restart the agent again. It reads the details per Ilya's register template method, if they don't exist it does the default thing.

If that works I can commit the fix. It worked for me, but I was testing master.

    I see you mention 4.3, is it your own build or from the release
    artifacts?

        Guest OS types that will get Virtio disks include:

        Ubuntu
        Fedora
        CentOS
        RedHat 6
        Debian
        Other PV

        And unfortunately, they also get virtio nics since they both
        run the OS through the same isPVEnabled() method to decide
        between hardware.

        This random "details" parameter is kind of interesting. I'll
        have to see if it gets passed along with StartCommand. I
        really dislike the trend of using a 'details' dumping ground
        for undocumented tweaks, but if it's already something that
        VMware is using then we could parse the details for the same
        info, if it's being passed along.

        What version of cloudstack are you using? And what OS is the
        guest agent running on?

            I'm KVM useless, perhaps Marcus knows the way.

            My mysql output is very different from yours btw.

                        2) If you building out the VMs via templates,
                        when you go through
                        import process, you can try altering
                        vm_details tag. For example this
                        is how i did it in cloudmonkey:
                        register template format=ova hypervisor=vmware
                        name=OL63-26-TMPLT
                        url=http://reposerver.example.com/6.3-26/ol-6.3-26.ova
                        ispublic=true
                        isfeatured=true passwordenabled=false
                        details[0].rootDiskController=scsi
                        details[0].nicAdapter=E1000
                        details[0].keyboard=us ostypeid=148 zoneid=-1
                        displaytext=OL63-26-TMPLT
                        see if you can change
                        details[0].rootDiskController=scsi to
                        details[0].rootDiskController=virtio


                    I'll go this route and see if it helps. Thanks a lot!


                I can confirm it doesn't work, but thank you anyway,
                it was worth trying. :-)
