I haven't played with host-model, but manual says ( http://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/4.11.1.0/installguide/hypervisor/kvm.html ) " host-model: libvirt will identify the CPU model in /usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map.xml which most closely matches the host, and then request additional CPU flags to

Hi all, maybe someone can help me with my KVM related questions. At the moment we want to add cpu flags to the standard qemu64 CPU-Model in a testcluster. For this we tried the following configuration: guest.cpu.mode=custom guest.cpu.model=qemu64 guest.cpu.features=sse4.2 sse4.1 But ended up
