1. put host into Maintenance, will send a Maintenance command to host, tell host that do not reconnect to mgt server
2. cancel Maintenance, will ssh into kvm host, and restart cloud-agent, which will reconnect to host
Changes:
- Added a new interface 'PluggableService'
- Any component that can be packaged separately from cloudstack, can implement this interface and provide its own property file listing the API commands the component supports
- As an example have made VirtualNetworkApplianceService pluggable and a new configureRouter command is added
- ComponentLocator reads all the pluggable service from componentLibrary or from components.xml and instantiates the services.
- As an example, DefaultComponentLibrary adds the pluggable service 'VirtualNetworkApplianceService'
- Also components.xml.in has an entry to show how a pluggable service can be added, but it is commented out.
- APIServer now reads the commands for each pluggable service and when a command for such a service is called, APIServer sets the required instance of the pluggable service in the coomand.
- To do this a new annotation '@PlugService' is added that is processed by APIServer. This eliminates the dependency on the BaseCmd to instantiate the service instances.
1. create a VM from iso/template whose guest os type is "Windows*"
2. attach a disk to windows VM
3. install virtio disk driver
4. stop the vm, and create template from it, chose guest os type as "Other PV"
5. create vm from the template created at step 4. Then this vm will have virtio disk, and virtio nic. Need to install virtio nic driver after VM booting up.
Description :
API's:
- Two new api's authorizeSecurityGroupEgress,revokeSecurityGroupEgressCmd are added. These two API's are similer to ingress rule API's.
- authorizeSecurityGroupEgress :Authorizes a particular egress rule for this security group . Usageof API is very similer to that of authorizeSecurityGroupIngress except that instead of source cidr there will be destination cidr. By default like ingress, all the outgoing flows are blocked.
- revokeSecurityGroupEgress : It is similer to revokeSecurityGroupIngress api, It removes the egress rule.
- listSecurityGroup API's response changed. It include's egress list apart from the existing ingress rules in the output of the API.
Hypervisors :
- It is implemented in Xen and KVM.
Pending Tasks : Blocking using destination security groups.
