Existing VMs will stay in the already available network called “My network”, which will be visible also in UI for users now. As a workaround if user wants to use new network on existing VMs we suggest creating a new VM from current VMs snapshot and then adding that VM to the suitable network. Support for starting VM in recovery mode. It will now be possible for customers to start their VM in a recovery mode. This feature will be available only via API at first stage.
