in the System VMs.
.. note::
+ The System VM template has been upgrade to Debian 12.x in Apache CloudStack 4.20.0.0.
+ Due to it, the memory size of default system offerings has been changed to 512 MiB.
+ If you use custom system offerings, please check the memory size of the offerings.
+ If memory size is small (for example 256 MiB), the System VMs and virtual routers might have the "kernel panic" issue on boot.

The following services will be restarted once a system VM is live patched:
