The FS looks good and addresses the things I'd want it to (scaling should be limited to within cluster, use offerings). As you mention, there's a real problem surrounding no support for scaling down CPU, and it's just as much a problem with the guests as it is with hvms at the moment, it seems. Th

You can scale down memory in KVM, but not CPU without a reboot. I'd like to see this implemented as the ability to jump between service offerings without reboot, and perhaps have a custom service offering that allows for any custom number to be put in. That way people who utilize cloudstack can cho

I was planning on looking at the same. With KVM, it requires that you launch the vm with a max number and a current number. Then you can increase up to max. I agree that it will be important to migrate before scaling if necessary. The scenario would likely be common and make the feature less usefu
