Very helpful data Martin -- but the problem I ran into was that the context.sh was created with single quotes and even PS3 couldn't read the variables unless they were in double quotes -- how did you get past that problem?

Hi Martin,

Indeed, this is very helpful.

We've opened a feature request [1] to include windows guest contextualization support in OpenNebula.

Thanks a lot for your feedback,
