Usage should be supported for VM and network. Only storage events can't be tracked I think

Migration should be added?

Right. I'll remove Usage and add Migration.


- Reinstall Instance.

- Migrate Instance to another Host.

I don't think migration would work correctly right now. I mean, it won't sync the host change back in CloudStack.

@abh1sar could we also add host capacity & utilisation? Also do we support multiple nics (post-deployment or on initial deployment?)

It may be exhaustive to list what we don't support, perhaps we can say at the end specifically what is supported and that all the list of things (above) are some of the general things that we don't support?

Yes, I'll add host capacity and utilisation.
multiple nics are supported during initial deployment only.

@rohityadavcloud I have changed the wording so that it doesn't appear to be an exhaustive list. I haven't added a list of what is supported, as I think the documentation already has that info.

userdata and sshkey injections will work right! as these are VR related operations and we do support all networking via VR. cc @shwstppr @rohityadavcloud

Ideally they should, but I think there are some issues with userdata and metadata services via VR. I don't know the exact root cause though.

@abh1sar as an other way, is it better to mention the supported operations (VM deployment excluding data disk provisioning, VM power operations and network operations via VR) and all others as not supported ? cc @shwstppr @rohityadavcloud

IMO it is less confusing for users, if we upfront mention some common limitations. If we just mention what is supported, then what's not supported is open to interpretation. The documentation already contains details on what all operations users can do. But I can add the list here as well, if you think that would be better.
