To resolve the issue set the global configuration parameter apply.allocation.algorithm.to.pods to false and then restart the management servers. See this JIRA page for more details: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4947 Hopefully this helps someone! Thanks Len ________________________________ IMPORTANT NOTICE.
