[4.7] VMware boot order fix In case of VMware, since root disk needs to be first in the hdd boot order, we collect list of hdds and create a hdd boot order with the root disk as the first disk. This fixes a rare edge case where VMs would stop booting due to changed boot order in hdds. For sanity, we want cdroms to boot first, then hdds, floppies etc. You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/shapeblue/cloudstack 4.7-vmware-boot-order Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1395.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #1395 ---- commit 2e01b37af4404db2c26deaaba9e6bf74c8381b0a Author: Rohit Yadav <rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com> Date: 2016-01-29T16:30:51Z vmware: specify hdd boot order based on disk device bus name In case of VMware, since root disk needs to be first in the hdd boot order, we collect list of hdds and create a hdd boot order with the root disk as the first disk.
