Windows Server 2016 Templates for Cloudstack
Hi,
we are currently updating templates we provide to our customers. However, we are running into problems with Windows Server 2016 and the cloudstack functionality of setting an administrator password and a hostname. The CloudInstanceManager we used for older versions does not seem to work anymore. Does anybody know a successor to the Cloud Instance Manager or a workaround to make the functions work in Server 2016?

We are using original one (cloud instance manager) sucessfully - at least
on older template (from say 8 months ago...) - not sure if versions have
been changing or not - here is what we use (version check)
https://snag.gy/prZTPB.jpg so you can try ti compare... Unless some new
mega security by MS to ban setting pass....(I guess you confirmed the
service is running, after install ?)
Though, hostname is not set indeed - it's random windows style...

Hi Simon,
With regards to hostname this should just be a question of setting your Windows template to pick up hostname from DHCP.
Admin passwords – if the existing install doesn’t work you could look at a cloud-init derivative for Windows, looks like https://cloudbase.it/cloudbase-init/ may do the trick?
