CloudStack volumes and templates are one single virtual disk in case of XenServer/XCP and KVM hypervisors since the files used for templates and volumes are virtual disks (VHD, QCOW2). However, VMware volumes and templates are in OVA format, which are archives that can contain a complete VM including multiple VMDKs and other files such as ISOs. And currently, Cloudstack only supports Template creation based on OVA files containing a single disk. If a user creates a template from a OVA file containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance using this template, only the first disk is attached to the new instance and other disks are ignored.
Similarly with uploaded volumes, attaching an uploaded volume that contains multiple disks to a VM will result in only one VMDK to being attached to the VM.
FS: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Support+OVA+files+containing+multiple+disks
This behavior needs to be improved in VMWare to support OVA files with multiple disks for both uploaded volumes and templates. i.e. If a user creates a template from a OVA file containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance using this template, the first disk should be attached to the new instance as the ROOT disk and volumes should be created based on other VMDK disks in the OVA file and should be attached to the instance.

This feature allows using templates and ISOs avoiding secondary storage as intermediate cache on KVM. The virtual machine deployment process is enhanced to supported bypassed registered templates and ISOs, delegating the work of downloading them to primary storage to the KVM agent instead of the SSVM agent.
Template and ISO registration:
- When hypervisor is KVM, a checkbox is displayed with 'Direct Download' label.
- API methods registerTemplate and registerISO are both extended with this new parameter directdownload.
- On template or ISO registration, no download job is sent to SSVM agent, CloudStack would only persist an entry on template_store_ref indicating that template or ISO has been marked as 'Direct Download' (bypassing Secondary Storage). These entries are persisted as:
template_id = Template or ISO id on vm_template table
store_id NULL
download_state = BYPASSED
state = Ready
(Note: these entries allow users to deploy virtual machine from registered templates or ISOs)
- An URL validation command is sent to a random KVM host to check if template/ISO location can be reached. Metalink are also supported by this feature. In case of a metalink, it is fetched and URL check is performed on each of its URLs.
- Checksum should be provided as indicated on #2246: {ALGORITHM}CHKSUMHASH
- After template or ISO is registered, it would be displayed in the UI
Virtual machine deployment:
When a 'Direct Download' template is selected for deployment, CloudStack would delegate template downloading to destination storage pool via destination host by a new pluggable download manager.
Download manager would handle template downloading depending on URL protocol. In case of HTTP, request headers can be set by the user via vm_template_details. Those details should be persisted as:
Key: HTTP_HEADER
Value: HEADERNAME:HEADERVALUE
In case of HTTPS, a new API method is added uploadTemplateDirectDownloadCertificate to allow user importing a client certificate into all KVM hosts' keystore before deployment.
After template or ISO is downloaded to primary storage, usual entry would be persisted on template_spool_ref indicating the mapping between template/ISO and storage pool.
The db queries in listTemplateAPI could be optimized to get unique results from the database which could help in reducing the listTemplate API response time.

When using CloudStack with database HA configuration user receives warnings constantly saying “No database selected”.
This problem happens at com.cloud.cluster.ClusterManagerImpl.getHeartbeatTask().new ManagedContextRunnable(){...}.runInContext(), line 550. The scheme of the database is not properly set in the transaction when database HA options are enabled.
The GroupBy + having isn't used currently in the code but was not clean.
It removes unused arguments and variables and adds a test based on a DAO
to show a full example on how to use it.

Root Cause:
Some global parameters contains NULL value, where the code doesn't handle NULL check.
So it fails with an exception. Hence nothing appears on the field(ERROR).
Solution:
Added required NULL check.
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

The quota memory tariff description in the CloudStack UI is wrong when defines that the value is for "using 1MB or RAM for 1 hour". The quota currency values reflect the value of a resource used per month, not an hour.
Quota divides the tariff value by the number of hours a month has (30 days - 720 hours); then it calculates the credits used by a client based on the amount of resources used per hour. The memory tariff description in the interface is wrong and can guide users to configure values for an hour.
secure and hidden config values are first unencrypted before returning
them in the api. This is not desired as they are secure configs
returning encrypted strings for secure and hidden configs if encryption
is enabled.

Often, patch and security releases do not require schema migrations or
data migrations. However, if an empty upgrade class and associated
scripts are not defined, the upgrade process will break. With this
change, if a release does not have an upgrade, a noop DbUpgrade is added
to the upgrade path. This approach allows the upgrade to proceed and
for the database to properly reflect the installed version. This change
should make the release process simpler as RMs no longer need to
rememeber to create this boilerplate code when starting a new release.
Beginning with the 4.8.2.0 and 4.9.1.0 releases, the project will
formally adopt a four (4) position release number to properly accomodate
rekeases that contain only CVE fixes. The DatabaseUpgradeChecker and
Version classes made assumptions that they would always parse and
compare three (3) position version numbers. This change adds the
CloudStackVersion value object that supports both three (3) and four (4)
version numbers. It encapsulates version comparsion logic, as well as,
the rules to allow three (3) and four (4) to interoperate.
* Modifies DatabaseUpgradeChecker to handle derive an upgrade path for
a version that was not explicitly specified. It determines the
releases the first release before it with database migrations and uses
that list as the basis for the list for version being calculated. A
noop upgrade is then added to the list which causes no schema changes
or data migrations, but will update the database to the version.
* Adds unit tests for the upgrade path calculation logic in
DatabaseUpgradeChecker
* Removes dummy upgrade logic for the 4.8.2.0 introduced in previous
versions of this patch
* Introduces the CloudStackVersion value object which parses and
compares three (3) and four (4) position version numbers. This class
is intended to replace com.cloud.maint.Version.
* Adds the junit-dataprovider dependency -- allowing test data to be
concisely generated separately from the execution of a test case.
Used extensively in the CloudStackVersionTest.
