Unfortunately, I don't thinking CloudStack actually supports (in reality) hyper-v any more - there was the original implementation for Hyper V 2012, but not sure it works any more, at all (and the "VM import" option is available only for VMware, not any other hypervisor, atm) Best, On Wed, 24 Feb

For KVM, it is technically impossible to write content of RAM anywhere, with any other storage than the QCOW2 format - this is a native KVM limitations, and has nothing to do with CloudStack. So no, you need to have QCOW2 on some file system in order to have VM snapshots support. On Tue, 16 Feb 2

That is a pity. Hyper-V Server 2019 for example is excellent with great enterprise software support like backup facilities, clustered filesystem (iSCSI SAN's, etc). Suppose unless there is traction like with OpenStack (with Hyper-V support), getting the time and developers to deal with it in

It goes without saying that once a big company get's interest in i.e. Hyper-V and sponsors the needed development - that is usually a time when such a huge feature goes in ACS. Do you need any recommendations from real-life on what to go with, in the CloudStack world? Best, On Tue, 2 Mar 2021 at

We currently use Hyper-V with an iSCSI SAN since Hyper-V does excellent at fast shared storage with Windows CSV. The system is reliable but very inflexible to changes in strategies when deploying workloads. Moving to Linux as a hypervisor isn't too much of an issue as we do use Ubuntu 20.x f
