Async Jobs

2024-05-28 Thread S.Fuller
I have a question about asynchronous jobs. My understanding is that any async jobs will be recorded in the async_jobs table in the database. They should have a value in the job_complete_msid table when they are done, and then be removed 24 hours later. Every once in a while, we will have a job

CPU compatibility

2024-04-09 Thread S.Fuller
The Cloudstack Install Guide has the following statement - "All hosts within a cluster must be homogenous. The CPUs must be of the same type, count, and feature flags" Obviously this means we can't mix Intel and AMD CPUs within the same cluster. However, for a cluster with Intel CPUs, how much if

Hot Added NICs - PCI slot changes on instance reboot

I am running Cloudstack 4.11 and have encountered an issue with hot added NICs on Windows guests. I add the NIC to a running guest, configure it, and it works as expected. After the guest reboots, the NIC is assigned to a different PCI slot, and then needs to be reconfigured. This has caused
