Field Value
management.network.cidr A CIDR that describes the network that the
management CIDRs reside on. This variable
must be set for deployments that use vSphere. It
is recommended to be set for other deployments
as well. Example: 192.168.3.0/24.
xen.setup.multipath For XenServer nodes, this is a true/false variable
that instructs CloudStack to enable iSCSI
multipath on the XenServer Hosts when they are
added. This defaults to false. Set it to true if you
would like CloudStack to enable multipath.
If this is true for a NFS-based deployment
multipath will still be enabled on the XenServer
host. However, this does not impact NFS
operation and is harmless.
secstorage.allowed.internal.sites This is used to protect your internal network
from rogue attempts to download arbitrary files
using the template download feature. This is a
comma-separated list of CIDRs. If a requested
URL matches any of these CIDRs the Secondary
Storage VM will use the private network interface
to fetch the URL. Other URLs will go through
the public interface. We suggest you set this
to 1 or 2 hardened internal machines where
you keep your templates. For example, set it to
192.168.1.66/32.
use.local.storage Determines whether CloudStack will use storage
that is local to the Host for data disks, templates,
and snapshots. By default CloudStack will not
use this storage. You should change this to
true if you want to use local storage and you
understand the reliability and feature drawbacks
to choosing local storage.
host This is the IP address of the Management
Server. If you are using multiple Management
Servers you should enter a load balanced IP
address that is reachable via the private network.
default.page.size Maximum number of items per page that can be
returned by a CloudStack API command. The
limit applies at the cloud level and can vary from
cloud to cloud. You can override this with a lower
value on a particular API call by using the page
and page size API command parameters. For
more information, see the Developer's Guide.
Default: 500.
ha.tag The label you want to use throughout the cloud
to designate certain hosts as dedicated HA
hosts. These hosts will be used only for HA-
enabled VMs that are restarting due to the failure
of another host. For example, you could set this
