Hi Gianluca,

in 4.2 we added a new engine custom property "hugepages" to replace the
VDSM hook, where the value of the property is the size of the pages in KiB
(1G = 1048576, 2M = 2048).

This property can be set for any VM profile type (not just to high
performance VM's).

Please see the following for more details (not all details are up to date,
but most are):

Regards,
Sharon
