Hey guys, Thanks for that, it's helpful. I was running vCenter 5.0 update 1a, which uses "Windows Server 8" after upgrading to to vCenter 5.0 update 2 I can see Windows Server 2012 as a guest OS type but now after deploying an instance in CloudStack I see it's created the vm as "Other (64bit)" - any ideas on what's going on?
