Hi, installing Ubuntu from ISO is not supported on XenServer [1]. Instead, perform a network installation of Ubuntu on a standalone XenServer, copy the VHD to a web server, and import it as a template to CloudStack. Kirk [1]

Hi, there is no CSP for XS 6.1 and above. The missing functionality provided by the CSP was incorporated into XS as of version 6.1. The CSP is mainly some RPMs including a different kernel and likely wouldn't include those scripts anyway. The CloudStack management server copies updated scripts

Hi, if you configure a CloudStack network without DHCP or completely without a virtual router, CloudStack cannot configure networking for the VM. You will need to configure networking in the VM. If you have your own (non-CloudStack) DHCP server for the network, you should configure it to assign
