part a) plugin - This contains all adapter implementations and components necessary to interact with CloudStack.
part b) server - This contains IAM interfaces that are not aware of any CloudStack entities, they are pure IAM interface that can be implemented in varied ways.
The default implementation provided just works on DB and generic Dao layer.
But these interfaces can be implemented using connectors interacting with LDAP or AD.
These changes are a joint effort between Edison and I to refactor some
of the code around snapshotting VM volumes and creating
templates/volumes from VM volume snapshots. In general, we were working
towards allowing PrimaryDataStoreDrivers to create snapshots on primary
storage and not requiring the snapshots to be transferred to secondary
storage.
High level changes:
-Added uuid to NfsTO, SwiftTO & S3TO to cut down on the requirement of
PrimaryDataStoreTO and ImageStoreTO which don't really serve much of a
purpose
-Initial work towards enable reverting VM volume from snapshots
-Added hypervisor commands for introducing and forgetting new hypervisor
objects (snapshots, templates & volumes)

ACS is now comprised of a hierarchy of spring application contexts.
Each plugin can contribute configuration files to add to an existing
module or create it's own module.
Additionally, for the mgmt server, ACS custom AOP is no longer used
and instead we use Spring AOP to manage interceptors.
All (almost) files belonging to the systemvm aer now centralize in the systemvm directory. The code for the separate functions is still in the services directory. This will make the code easier to understand and makes it clear that the systemvm is a separate item. It alos means that it can be excluded from the build entirely by not adding the systemvm profile, this will speed up the compiles somewhat.
It was implemented by extending the NFS provider. Its validation was updated so that you can pass it a URL containing the
details of a CIFS share. The code that mounts NFS shares was extended to allow it do the same for CIFS shares. Otherwise,
the secondary storage code is left unchanged.
RBD snapshots are in RAW format and are stored as such on Secondary Storage.
When creating a template from such a snapshot, honor the image format passed
down by the management server and act on that.
The old code simply assumed it always was QCOW2.
