Hi Yiping, Support for XenServer 7.1 LTSR will be in 4.11 - as with all things new, I'd recommend extensive testing of your exact use cases, but our smoke testing shows to be working fine.

We need also to consider Apache CloudStack’s own EOL status to help users chose which combination of OS/Hypervisor/ACS versions to deploy for a stable and fully supported environment. For example, I am currently on RHEL 6.7 + XenServer 6.5 SP1 + ACS 4.8.0. When all things are considered, my only upgrade path is to go with RHEL 6.7 + ACS 4.9.3 + XenServer 7.0. But hotfix for Meltdown/Spectre for XenServer 7.0 is not available either! Therefore, I am stuck with my current environment! BTW, is there any plan to add support for XenServer 7.1 LTSR to a stable ACS version?

People on Centos 6 should certainly be working on a migration strategy right now, but the end is not here *yet*. Furthermore, the install documentation is still written for Centos 6 rather than Centos 7. That needs to be fixed before discontinuing support for Centos 6, eh? > On Jan 12, 2018, at 04:35, Rohit Yadav <[email protected]> wrote: > > +1 I've updated the page with upcoming Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. > > > After 4.11, I think 4.12 (assuming releases by mid of 2018) should remove "declared" (they might still work with 4.12+ but in docs and by project we should officially support them) support for following: > > > a.
