status 9815: resolved fixed
The type cast should be done after making sure that the command was successful. Otherwise you may have the base Answer returned.
Changes:
- Throw an exception if the deployment plan passed into start() cannot be satisfied by the current constraints (such as root volume is already created in a pool in a different
cluster).
Changes:
- Added a new parameter to pass in deployment plan during vm start
- If a hostId is passed in to the DeployVMCmd (only allowed for a root admin to test a host), a plan is passed in to start the vm in that host's datacenter, pod and cluster and on that host
- If a plan is passed in during start, but if the VM's root volume is READY, then plan of the root volume takes precedence. In that case the plan passed in is not used.
Changes:
- Added a new column `source_template_id` to vm_template table to carry the parent/source template ID from which the tempalte was created
- Added the column in db upgrade 224 to 225
- Changed code to save the source_template_id if there is one associated to the volume/ volume from which the snapshot was taken
- API response returns the sourcetemplateid field, if set, in all template usecases.
Changes:
- When the ROOT volume of a VM is found to be READY, changed planner to reuse the pool for every volume(root or data) that is READY and that has a pool not in maintenance and not in avoid state
- If ROOT volume is not ready, we dont care about the DATA disk. Both would get re-allocated.
- When a pool is reused for a ready volume, Planner does not call storagepool allocators. And such volumes are not assigned a pool in the deployment destination returned by the planner. Accordingly StorageManager :: prepare method wont recreate these volumes since they are not mentioned in the destination.
Changes:
- Reason was that the old volume's templateId was being updated before volume creation was attempted. So on the retry, we dint find a difference in volume's templateId and VM's templateId and did not enter the recreation logic.
- Fix is to update the new volume's templateId with the VM's templateId while creating the new volume. The old volume's templateId stays the same and the volume is marked as 'Destroy' when a new volume is created.
Changes:
While starting a System VM:
- We check, incase the ROOT volume is READY, if the templateID of the volume matches the SystemVM's template.
- If it does not match, we update the volumes' templateId and ask deployment planner to reassign a pool to this volume even if it is READY.
In general:
- If a root volume is READY, we remove its entry from the deploydestination before calling storagemanager :: prepare()
- StorageManager creates a volume if a pool is assigned to it in deploydestination passed to it.
- If a volume has no pool assigned to it in deploydestination, it means the volume is ready and has a pool already allocated to it.
- Update system vm_instance's template_id if it does not match the system vm template.
- Use _templateDao.findSystemVMTemplate to find the latest system vm template.
Changes:
- Planner must reassign the storage pool if the template id for system vms has changed. StorageManager must then recreate the volume if the volume has been
reassigned. This is needed to do automatic update of the system template.
