Myself and my co-worker voted for it ;-) We ended up running this command: xe vm-cd-remove uuid=<VM-UUID> cd-name=xs-tools.iso
You have to have something in the drive before it can be removed. After that the NS appliance boots right up. -----Original Message----- From: Kirk Kosinski [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2013 2:32 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Fitzjarrell, Dave Subject: Re: NetScaler VPX 10 VM wont boot using CS 4.1 Hi, Dave. CloudStack will always create a virtual CD/DVD drive for VMs. This is a known limitation. I've filed an enhancement request for this here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4197 As a workaround, if possible try XenServer 6.0.2 since the NetScaler appliance seems to work on it even with a CD drive.
