Naredula Janardhana Reddy f9b0962ad9 bug 10617: Intermediate checking
Changes :
         - Fixing API doc +response name + errorMessage
         - Adding seperate events to Egress rules
         - Egress rules Using the same database table as that of ingress with new column type.

   Pending Tasks:
         - db upgrade
         - database table rename from security_ingress_rule to generic name, renaming some of the jave class from ingress to generic name.
         - Retesting on kvm

Naredula Janardhana Reddy 854f81962f bug 10617: Added Egress rules to Security groups.
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.

alena 41e5e38fef bug 9336: securityGroups can be used by other securityGroups in the same domain only; no cross domain SG authentication
status 9336: resolved fixed

Following changes were made:

* deleteSecurityGroup/authorizeSecurityGroupIngress - removed account/domainId parameters as SG is uniquely identified by id now
* removed account_name field from securityGroup DB table; removed allowed_security_group/allowed_sec_grp_acct from security_ingress_rule.
These values were used for api response generation only for performance purposes; added caching on API level to improve performance
* Added missing security checks for securityGroups/ingressRules

alena dae39942f1 bug 7192: Added networktype parameter for the zone
status 7192: resolved fixed

1) Zone has networktype parameter now, 2 values are supported: Basic and Advanced. "networktype" field is created in data_center table. The parameter is being set at creation time; we don't allow to modify it with updateZone command.
2) Only vlan of Untagged Direct type can be created in Basic network zone; any other vlan except for Untagged Direct can be created in Advanced zone
3) Allow NULL guest vlan range for the zone. Only vlan of Direct type can be created in zone with NULL guest vlan.
4) "Default" zone is Basic by default.
5) Changed "vnet" parameter to "vlan" in updateZone command to be consistent with createZone
2010-11-16 16:54:44 -08:00
alena c5d78a726e Modified exception handing in API. Following exceptions are supported now (location - BaseCmd.java):
* MALFORMED_PARAMETER_ERROR - when type of the request parameter is invalid (String instead of Long for id for example)
* PARAM_ERROR - when invalid parameter value is specified in api request. For example, id of non existing vm for StartVmCmd
* ACCOUNT_RESOURCE_LIMIT_ERROR - when user tries to exceed his resource limits by executing the api command.
* INSUFFICIENT_CAPACITY_ERROR - when resource fails to create/start due to insufficient capacity.
* RESOURCE_UNAVAILABLE_ERROR - when user tries to create a vm when storage is not available.
* RESOURCE_IN_USE_ERROR - when user tries to delete/modify resource while it's in use. For example, when we try to delete a network group when it contains ingress rules.
* NETWORK_RULE_CONFLICT_ERROR - when LB/PF rule to add conflicts with existing rule
* ACCOUNT_ERROR - when user is not authorized to execute operation on the resource.
* INTERNAL_ERROR

The commands are being serialized to commands.xml using imported xstream library, and can be desiarialized later - it will help to compare commands from differemt product versions.

Kris McQueen 5f2acc8cdd Fixing API responses for user VMs (we need to return ipaddress rather than privateip) and domain routers (guestMacAddress != guestmacaddress for case sensitive string comparison) 2010-09-30 14:22:10 -07:00
Kris McQueen 95a7f20a0a Adding in XML response serializing. Now the new API framework supports both XML and JSON responses the way the old framework did. 2010-09-28 17:36:27 -07:00
Kris McQueen 848ce60097 Merging master into 2.1.refactor, resolve the merge conflicts as best I can. New commands related to extracting template/iso/volume and related to instance groups were refactored to the new API framework. 2010-09-28 15:47:14 -07:00
Kris McQueen 62257d4021 Fix serializing async job responses by writing a custom adapter for ResponseObjects. Improve exception handling when calling async commands (the job still needs to complete, but with FAILED status). 2010-09-24 13:52:35 -07:00
Kris McQueen 2a4ddac41a Change getResponse() to return a ResponseObject so that the caller can choose how to serialize. This in in preparation for serializing the async commands to the database with class information and deserializing them into the ResponseObject itself when queryAsyncJobResult is called. Once the ResponseObject is deserialized, the proper string can be returned to the caller.
The previous behavior had the JSON response from the command embedded into the queryAsyncJobResult response as a string rather than a JSON object which prevented the client from being able to read the response.  With this new behavior an actual JSON object should be returned which can then be parsed on the client side.

Kris McQueen c32d6e7524 Template id is not a required parameter when listing templates. The proper serialized name for the async job id is jobid, not id. Sadly, ctxAccoutId != ctxAccountId, ugh, no wonder the UserContext wasn't getting set up correctly. Clean up some miscellaneous unnecessary casts. 2010-09-21 17:00:50 -07:00
Kris McQueen 1a54c52d5e Change the annontations for response objects to use the GSON annotations for the property name written to the response 2010-09-20 17:47:56 -07:00
Kris McQueen 12ef5106b6 Fixing serialization of JSON responses to handle both regular objects and list-style responses. Add missing managers to API dispatcher. Fix a typo in listAlerts command implementation method. Add signatures for various add host/storage APIs. 2010-09-20 15:20:32 -07:00
Kris McQueen e2e0e76063 More work on serializing responses. Now responses have to have the name set on them, and the name will eventually be serialized to the JSON/XML response the way it used to work for commands themselves [the result of cmd.getName() was written to the response string]. For list respones, we wrap the individual objects in a ListResponse object that has the name of the response, and the individual objects have the object name so that accounts will be something like <listaccountsresponse><account><...></account><account><...></account></listaccountsresponse>. 2010-09-17 17:13:04 -07:00
Kris McQueen a5f50d236f Rearranging how response objects work since we need the response name when doing serialization. Now there's a base class that implements the getResponseName method, all responses extend this base class 2010-09-17 15:18:37 -07:00
alena b49f63c28e Refactoring addConfig/deleteDiskOffering/deletePod/getCloudIdentifier/enableAccount/enableUser/enableAccount/updateUser/updateDiskOffering/updateConfig commands to new API framework 2010-09-15 16:41:38 -07:00
Kris McQueen dc6e07ad75 Refactoring deletePreallocatedLun and registerPreallocatedLun to new API framework. 2010-09-14 17:53:12 -07:00
Kris McQueen 1d912fb608 adding licensing info 2010-09-14 16:09:05 -07:00
Kris McQueen a53cb4aab0 Refactoring deleteDomain to new API framework. Cleaning up some compilation errors that resulted from previous refactoring, namely there was a requirement to keep the old manager method around for createDiskOffering and createZone in order for the ConfigurationServer to work. 2010-09-14 15:36:12 -07:00
Kris McQueen dbb2897626 Unexposed parameters can now be assigned to commands. This are for internal use of the command, and will be serialized/deserialized during execution/response phases, but will not be accepted as part of the API request. Also create a DB utility file for the API to use which delegates requests to the DAOs. Mostly this utility class will look up objects by ID, and it allows the removal of similar methods from ManagementServer, thereby reducing some of the clutter in ManagementServer. 2010-09-14 14:54:04 -07:00
