The VM ingestion feature allows CloudStack to discover, on-board, import existing VMs in an infra. The feature currently works only for VMware, with a hypervisor agnostic framework which may be extended for KVM and XenServer in future.
This commit makes the API documentation automatically updated to the
current project version. If one wants to set another version, it is
possible by just editing the ACS_RELEASE variable in 'build-apidoc.sh'.

This is a new feature for CS that allows Admin users improved
troubleshooting of network issues in CloudStack hosted networks.
Description: For troubleshooting purposes, CloudStack administrators may wish to execute network utility commands remotely on system VMs, or request system VMs to ping/traceroute/arping to specific addresses over specific interfaces. An API command to provide such functionalities is being developed without altering any existing APIs. The targeted system VMs for this feature are the Virtual Router (VR), Secondary Storage VM (SSVM) and the Console Proxy VM (CPVM).

Allowed zone-wide primary storage based on a custom plug-in to be added via the GUI in a KVM-only environment (previously this only worked for XenServer and VMware)
Added support for root disks on managed storage with KVM
Added support for volume snapshots with managed storage on KVM
Enable creating a template directly from a volume (i.e. without having to go through a volume snapshot) on KVM with managed storage
Only allow the resizing of a volume for managed storage on KVM if the volume in question is either not attached to a VM or is attached to a VM in the Stopped state.
Included support for Reinstall VM on KVM with managed storage
Enabled offline migration on KVM from non-managed storage to managed storage and vice versa
Included support for online storage migration on KVM with managed storage (NFS and Ceph to managed storage)
Added support to download (extract) a managed-storage volume to a QCOW2 file
When uploading a file from outside of CloudStack to CloudStack, set the min and max IOPS, if applicable.
Included support for the KVM auto-convergence feature
The compression flag was actually added in version 1.0.3 (1000003) as opposed to version 1.3.0 (1003000) (changed this to reflect the correct version)
On KVM when using iSCSI-based managed storage, if the user shuts a VM down from the guest OS (as opposed to doing so from CloudStack), we need to pass to the KVM agent a list of applicable iSCSI volumes that need to be disconnected.
Added a new Global Setting: kvm.storage.live.migration.wait
For XenServer, added a check to enforce that only volumes from zone-wide managed storage can be storage motioned from a host in one cluster to a host in another cluster (cannot do so at the time being with volumes from cluster-scoped managed storage)
Don’t allow Storage XenMotion on a VM that has any managed-storage volume with one or more snapshots.
Enabled for managed storage with VMware: Template caching, create snapshot, delete snapshot, create volume from snapshot, and create template from snapshot
Added an SIOC API plug-in to support VMware SIOC
When starting a VM that uses managed storage in a cluster other than the one it last was running in, we need to remove the reference to the iSCSI volume from the original cluster.
Added the ability to revert a volume to a snapshot
Enabled cluster-scoped managed storage
Added support for VMware dynamic discovery

This introduces a new certificate authority framework that allows
pluggable CA provider implementations to handle certificate operations
around issuance, revocation and propagation. The framework injects
itself to `NioServer` to handle agent connections securely. The
framework adds assumptions in `NioClient` that a keystore if available
with known name `cloud.jks` will be used for SSL negotiations and
handshake.
This includes a default 'root' CA provider plugin which creates its own
self-signed root certificate authority on first run and uses it for
issuance and provisioning of certificate to CloudStack agents such as
the KVM, CPVM and SSVM agents and also for the management server for
peer clustering.
Additional changes and notes:
- Comma separate list of management server IPs can be set to the 'host'
global setting. Newly provisioned agents (KVM/CPVM/SSVM etc) will get
radomized comma separated list to which they will attempt connection
or reconnection in provided order. This removes need of a TCP LB on
port 8250 (default) of the management server(s).
- All fresh deployment will enforce two-way SSL authentication where
connecting agents will be required to present certificates issued
by the 'root' CA plugin.
- Existing environment on upgrade will continue to use one-way SSL
authentication and connecting agents will not be required to present
certificates.
- A script `keystore-setup` is responsible for initial keystore setup
and CSR generation on the agent/hosts.
- A script `keystore-cert-import` is responsible for import provided
certificate payload to the java keystore file.
- Agent security (keystore, certificates etc) are setup initially using
SSH, and later provisioning is handled via an existing agent connection
using command-answers. The supported clients and agents are limited to
CPVM, SSVM, and KVM agents, and clustered management server (peering).
- Certificate revocation does not revoke an existing agent-mgmt server
connection, however rejects a revoked certificate used during SSL
handshake.
- Older `cloudstackmanagement.keystore` is deprecated and will no longer
be used by mgmt server(s) for SSL negotiations and handshake. New
keystores will be named `cloud.jks`, any additional SSL certificates
should not be imported in it for use with tomcat etc. The `cloud.jks`
keystore is stricly used for agent-server communications.
- Management server keystore are validated and renewed on start up only,
the validity of them are same as the CA certificates.
New APIs:
- listCaProviders: lists all available CA provider plugins
- listCaCertificate: lists the CA certificate(s)
- issueCertificate: issues X509 client certificate with/without a CSR
- provisionCertificate: provisions certificate to a host
- revokeCertificate: revokes a client certificate using its serial
Global settings for the CA framework:
- ca.framework.provider.plugin: The configured CA provider plugin
- ca.framework.cert.keysize: The key size for certificate generation
- ca.framework.cert.signature.algorithm: The certificate signature algorithm
- ca.framework.cert.validity.period: Certificate validity in days
- ca.framework.cert.automatic.renewal: Certificate auto-renewal setting
- ca.framework.background.task.delay: CA background task delay/interval
- ca.framework.cert.expiry.alert.period: Days to check and alert expiring certificates
Global settings for the default 'root' CA provider:
- ca.plugin.root.private.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA private key
- ca.plugin.root.public.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA public key
- ca.plugin.root.ca.certificate: (hidden/encrypted) CA certificate
- ca.plugin.root.issuer.dn: The CA issue distinguished name
- ca.plugin.root.auth.strictness: Are clients required to present certificates
- ca.plugin.root.allow.expired.cert: Are clients with expired certificates allowed
UI changes:
- Button to download/save the CA certificates.
Misc changes:
- Upgrades bountycastle version and uses newer classes
- Refactors SAMLUtil to use new CertUtils

This improves the metrics view feature by improving the rendering performance
of metrics view tables, by reimplementing the logic at the backend and data
served via APIs. In large environments, the older implementation would
make several API calls that increases both network and database load.
List of APIs introduced for improving the performance:
listClustersMetrics
listHostsMetrics
listInfrastructure
listStoragePoolsMetrics
listVMsMetrics
listVolumesMetrics
listZonesMetrics

Support access to a host’s out-of-band management interface (e.g. IPMI, iLO,
DRAC, etc.) to manage host power operations (on/off etc.) and querying current
power state in CloudStack.
Given the wide range of out-of-band management interfaces such as iLO and iDRA,
the service implementation allows for development of separate drivers as plugins.
This feature comes with a ipmitool based driver that uses the
ipmitool (http://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool) to communicate with any
out-of-band management interface that support IPMI 2.0.
This feature allows following common use-cases:
- Restarting stalled/failed hosts
- Powering off under-utilised hosts
- Powering on hosts for provisioning or to increase capacity
- Allowing system administrators to see the current power state of the host
For testing this feature `ipmisim` can be used:

This feature allows root administrators to define new roles and associate API
permissions to them.
A limited form of role-based access control for the CloudStack management server
API is provided through a properties file, commands.properties, embedded in the
WAR distribution. Therefore, customizing API permissions requires unpacking the
distribution and modifying this file consistently on all servers. The old system
also does not permit the specification of additional roles.
FS:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Dynamic+Role+Based+API+Access+Checker+for+CloudStack
DB-Backed Dynamic Role Based API Access Checker for CloudStack brings following
changes, features and use-cases:
- Moves the API access definitions from commands.properties to the mgmt server DB
- Allows defining custom roles (such as a read-only ROOT admin) beyond the
current set of four (4) roles
- All roles will resolve to one of the four known roles types (Admin, Resource
Admin, Domain Admin and User) which maintains this association by requiring
all new defined roles to specify a role type.
- Allows changes to roles and API permissions per role at runtime including additions or
removal of roles and/or modifications of permissions, without the need
of restarting management server(s)
Upgrade/installation notes:
- The feature will be enabled by default for new installations, existing
deployments will continue to use the older static role based api access checker
with an option to enable this feature
- During fresh installation or upgrade, the upgrade paths will add four default
roles based on the four default role types
- For ease of migration, at the time of upgrade commands.properties will be used
to add existing set of permissions to the default roles. cloud.account
will have a new role_id column which will be populated based on default roles
as well
Dynamic-roles migration tool: scripts/util/migrate-dynamicroles.py
- Allows admins to migrate to the dynamic role based checker at a future date
- Performs a harder one-way migrate and update
- Migrates rules from existing commands.properties file into db and deprecates it
- Enables an internal hidden switch to enable dynamic role based checker feature
