Re: Adding OS Type

When you add a new OS type to ACS - your upgrade to next ACS version will
break (due to DB IDs being hardcoded in the upgrade paths/files)

DO NOT add a new OS type, unless your hypervisor has introduced some major
improvements in e.g. Ubuntu 20 vs Ubuntu 18 - just use the newest OS type
(if really installing Ubuntu 20.04, then use e.g. 18.04)

Consider yourself warned in regards to failure in future upgrades :)

Best,

Hi Hean,

The details are not applicable for kvm. I do not know why it is required.
you can use the same details as other guest os

xenserver.dynamicMin = 536870912
xenserver.dynamicMax = 137438953472

I suggest you NOT add a new guest os if you use 4.15.0.0 or older versions,
because the upgrade sql from 4.15.0.0 to 4.15.1.0 have hardcoded id for
some guest os.
no issue with 4.15.1.0 or 4.15.2.0.
