All,
In the last smoke test run yesterday, all of them passed on VMware 5.5u3, VMware 6.5+dvswitch, CentOS7 and XenServer 6.5sp1. The PR has now two code reviews (approved/lgtms) to qualify for merging this, however, I'll hold merging the PR until another smoketest round since master has changed and at that same time request for more reviews. If anyone has any concerns or objections to merging this, please do share. I'll also kick component tests tomorrow or over the weekends for VMware, KVM, and XenServer and make adjustments to tests etc if necessary.

I've verified, virtio-scsi seems to work for me. Qemu guest agent also works, I was able to write poc code to get rid of patchviasocket.py as well. Can you help review and test the PR? Regards. ________________________________ From: Wido den Hollander <w...@widodh.nl> Sent: Saturday, December 9, 2017 12:32:24 AM To: dev@cloudstack.apache.org; Rohit Yadav Cc: us...@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: [UPDATE] Debian 9 "stretch" systemvmtemplate for master Awesome work!

Thoughts, comments? > We might want to look/verify that this works: - Running with VirtIO-SCSI under KVM (allows disk trimming) - Make sure the Qemu Guest Agent works If those two things work we can keep the footprint of the SSVM rather small.
