How to create VM in a specific cluster
Hello,
Just a quick question (Cloudstack 3.0.2), what is the best way to create a
VM in a specific cluster inside of a pod? For licensing reason we have to
attach VM to a subset of servers that we grouped in a specific cluster, but
currently we don't find a method to deploy a VM on this cluster (we tried
host tag, but it doesn't seems to be taken into account).
What would be the best way to procede?
Thanks!

You need to make sure that host and storage tag are setup on:
- The template
- The Host groups
- The primary storage.
- The service offering.
When I have all these set it works fine for me.

Thank you all!
We find the solution with the tag on storage, on the system and on the
offering.
The problem we have now is that untagged system get created on this
cluster... does it mean that we have to tag everything?

The root domain admin can specify hostid while deploying a vm:
http://incubator.apache.org/cloudstack/docs/api/apidocs-4.0.0/root_admin/deployVirtualMachine.html
In your case, this can be a host inside the target cluster.
Regards.

Hi Arnaud,
Use the tags feature in the cloudstack. It will help to place the VM in the desired location , host.
Create the host tag where you want to be running, while deploying the VM provide the host tag and CS will deploy the instance on the host with the tag specified.
Thanks
