Hi,
Is VMpayload supported by oVirt 3.2.2 el6?
it should be.
have you tried first passing payload via the engine?
As I'm trying to set up startup hook to pass vmname via payload
and
getting nothing...
my hook code quite simple (and maybe crude):

and from vdsm.log I can see that 'payloads' elements are created
succesfully:

Tried with both 'cdrom' and 'floppy' types.
However, inside guest OS (centos 6.4) I couldn't see any payload:
/dev/sr0 contains nothing; modprobe floppy doest not finds any floppy
devices.
Am I missing something or it's just not implemented in 3.2.2-el6?
