OR you can modify the existing entries in the table to say "Ubuntu", this might be easier actually as it doesn't require messing with the shell script.

Be careful though as upon restart cloudstack-agent might check the OS again and update the table, so keep an eye on it.

If you really know what you are doing and are confident can get
yourself out of a problem, then you can force Cloudstack to register
your Ubuntu new server as CentOS by editing this script on the hv
(prior to host addition):
/usr/share/cloudstack-common/scripts/vm/hypervisor/versions.sh

Once you have migrated all your CentOS servers, you can edit the
"host_details" DB table and replace CentOS with Ubuntu.

Hi,

Cloudstack tries to keep that demarcation between OSes so as to
maintain some sort of compatibility where software versions and
capabilities are concerned, for stability's sake.
That said, it can be bypassed in code, but it's best to do it like you
have already shown by using another pod.

I am working to transition the host OS for my Cloudstack 4.11.3 hosts from CentOS to Ubuntu. I was able successfully bring up a new Ubuntu host with Cloudstack and wanted to have it be part of an existing cluster, but after attempting to add the server I'm noting the following warning in the agent
log file

"Can't add host: XX.XX.XX.XX with hostOS: Ubuntu into a cluster,in which
there are CentOS hosts added"

Is this really the case? I did not see anything obvious in the
documentation about this. I was able to successfully add the new Ubuntu server into a new cluster within the same POD, and have it see storage, networking, etc, so the host itself appears to be configured correctly.
