This is a Root admin only functionality
---------------------
Service API changes:
---------------------
- ManagementServer will expose new API:
Pair<List<HostVO>, List<Long>> listHostsForMigrationOfVM(UserVm vm, Long
startIndex, Long pageSize)
The API returns list of all hosts in the VM's cluster minus the current host and also a list of hostIds that seem to have enough CPU and RAM capacity to host this VM.
- ListHostsCmd will call this service API if virtualmachineid is present in the request.
- MigrateVmCmd is the new command added that takes in virtualmachineid and destination hostid
- UserVmService will expose a new API: UserVm migrateVirtualMachine(UserVm vm, Host destinationHost)
------------------------------------
API throws error in following cases:
------------------------------------
- User is not a root Admin. (‘Permission denied’)
- A VM uses local storage, we cannot migrate it, so ‘listHosts’ will throw error.
- We fail to migrate the VM on the chosen host.
- API will support migration for XenServer only currently. So error is thrown
if hypervisor is not XenServer (e.g KVM, vSphere etc)
- Destination host is not in same cluster as source host.
- VM is not in running state
Bug 7723 - merge or re-write host tagging into master / 2.2
Bug 7627 - Need more logging for Allocators
Bug 8317 - Add better resource allocation failure messages
Changes for Deployment Planner to use host and storagePool allocators to find deployment destination.
Also has the changes for host tag feature.
Improved the logging for allocators.
