GitHub user rhpijnacker-philips created a discussion: Missing systemvm.iso

Hi all,

My department is migrating from vSphere/ESXi to a Hyper-V environment.
I am setting up a CloudStack instance to evaluate whether that would provide 
benefits for us, similar to what vSphere provides.

For this I have set-up two Hyper-V hosts, connected to the same domain, Primary 
and Secondary SMB storage accessible by both hosts.
I installed CloudStack and created one zone/pod/cluster and added the hosts to 
it.
As far as I can tell, CloudStack is now trying to create the System VMs on the 
Hyper-V hosts, but fails to do so.

In the log file, it tells me this error:

```
2026-05-13 10:18:57,433 ERROR [c.c.h.h.m.HypervManagerImpl] 
(DirectAgent-373:[ctx-55eca309]) (logid:840b8a49) Unable to locate systemvm.iso 
in your setup at /usr/share/cloudstack-common/vms/systemvm.iso

java.io.FileNotFoundException: Source 
'/usr/share/cloudstack-common/vms/systemvm.iso' does not exist
```

with /var/lib/cloudstack/mnt/VM/345048874842.14d8b024 being the mounted 
Secondary storage.

I did already download the SystemVM templates for Hyper-V and they are 
available on the Secondary storage:
```
/var/lib/cloudstack/mnt/VM/345048874842.14d8b024/template/tmpl/1/9/0c81cae9-72f8-42dc-b9cb-c1a21d874ab1.vhd
/var/lib/cloudstack/mnt/VM/345048874842.14d8b024/template/tmpl/1/9/template.properties
```

However, I cannot seem to find where to download the missing iso file from.
Could someone point me to the right location, please?
