This PR aligns the use of terminology, renaming VM / virtual machine references to 'Instance' and also capitalising the terms Templates, Network, Snapshot, User, Account in CloudStack UI. “VM snapshots” moved under the “Compute” main menu, and renamed to “Instance Snapshots”. “Snapshots” (under Storage section) renamed to “Volume Snapshots”.
This PR introduces new granularity levels to configure VM dynamic scalability. Previously VM is configured to be dynamically scalable based on the template and global setting. Now we bringing this option to configure at service offering and VM level also.
VM can dynamically scale only when all flags are ON at VM level, template, service offering and global setting. If any of the flags is set to false then VM cannot be scalable. This result will be persisted in DB for each VM and will be honoured for that VM till it is updated.
We are introducing 'dynamicscalingallowed' parameter with permitted values of true or false for deployVM API and createServiceOffering API.
Following are the API parameter changes:
createServiceOffering API:
dynamicscalingenabled: an optional parameter of type Boolean with default value “true”.
deployVirtualMachine API:
dynamicscalingenabled: an optional parameter of type Boolean with default value “true”.
Following are the UI changes:
Service offering creation has ON/OFF switch for dynamic scaling enabled with default value true
Inclusivity changes for CloudStack
- Change default git branch name from 'master' to 'main' (post renaming/changing default git branch to 'main' in git repo)
- Rename some offensive words/terms as appropriate for inclusiveness.
This PR updates the default git branch to 'main', as part of #4887.
