As ISO domains are deprecated, what's the correct/modern procedure to upload ISOs to
install / boot from?
When I upload them to a data domain, they get converted into QCOW2 images (as confirmed by
qemu-img info), but attached like ISOs to the qemu process. This means the VMs won't
boot, until I manually overwrite the disk image on the datastore with the ISO directly
(which works fine).
My cluster started on 4.4 just after release, and is fully updated, if that changes
things.
Cheers,
Nathaniel

How do you upload?
Please share the exact command used.

Sounds like a bug in the javascript code detecting ISO type, or maybe
this is not an ISO file but a qcow2 image.
What does this show:
qemu-img info my.iso
If this shows a raw image, this may be an ISO.
In this case I would like to test this ISO image. If it is not public,
can you share the first 64K of the file?
You can do this:
dd if=my.iso bs=64K count=1 of=head.iso
gzip head.iso
