Tamas, Looks like vmware systemVm template upgrade is missing in 4.0 upgrade.
You can try the below work around: 1. Add new vmware template to CS with name systemvm-vmware-4.0 2. Wait till the template is downloaded and installed successfully 3. Look up id of this template in DB (Name should match the input provided in step # 1) mysql> select id from `cloud`.`vm_template` where name = 'systemvm-vmware-4.0' and removed is null; 4. Update template type to SYSTEM mysql> update `cloud`.`vm_template` set type='SYSTEM' where id = <id-from-step3>; 5. Update template Id for all system Vms mysql> update `cloud`.`vm_instance` set vm_template_id = <id-from-step3> where type <> 'User' and hypervisor_type = 'VMware'; 6. Restart all system Vms ~kishan ________________________________________ From: Tamas Monos [tam...@veber.co.uk] Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2012 7:39 PM To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Upgrade 3.0.2->4.0.0 Hi, Sorry putting this on dev-list but got no luck on the user one. I have upgraded from 3.0.2 to 4.0.0 and the management server started and updated the database just fine, however the rest of the upgrade procedure just does not work. I'm running the script: "nohup cloud-sysvmadm -d 192.168.1.5 -u cloud -p password -c -r > sysvm.log 2>&1 &" accordingly to my environment and see in its log it is trying to stop/start a router. It stops it, then recreates the same secondary datastore (vmware) and then starts the same router rather than deploying the new imported systemVM template and creating a new one. It neither touches the sec-storage VM nor the console-proxy VM so new management system, old systemVMs. No errors during running the script no errors in the log: Stopping and starting 1 running routing vm(s)... Done restarting router(s). Is there a way to bypass this and convince CS 4.0 manually to use the new imported systemvm-vmware-3.0.5 template for systemvms? This way I could just destroy the systemvms and CS would re-create them with the new template. Thanks in advance.
