It was during an actual lab test that I found KVM HA fail with Apache CloudStack 4.1 despite what the documentation claimed. FWIW, you never know what surprises are in store till you actually test features that is critical to internal success criteria(s). CloudStack codebase has had a lot of churn since it went open source and it is in the user's best interest to validate CloudStack features/bugs with the supporting documentation.
