This introduces a new certificate authority framework that allows
pluggable CA provider implementations to handle certificate operations
around issuance, revocation and propagation. The framework injects
itself to `NioServer` to handle agent connections securely. The
framework adds assumptions in `NioClient` that a keystore if available
with known name `cloud.jks` will be used for SSL negotiations and
handshake.
This includes a default 'root' CA provider plugin which creates its own
self-signed root certificate authority on first run and uses it for
issuance and provisioning of certificate to CloudStack agents such as
the KVM, CPVM and SSVM agents and also for the management server for
peer clustering.
Additional changes and notes:
- Comma separate list of management server IPs can be set to the 'host'
global setting. Newly provisioned agents (KVM/CPVM/SSVM etc) will get
radomized comma separated list to which they will attempt connection
or reconnection in provided order. This removes need of a TCP LB on
port 8250 (default) of the management server(s).
- All fresh deployment will enforce two-way SSL authentication where
connecting agents will be required to present certificates issued
by the 'root' CA plugin.
- Existing environment on upgrade will continue to use one-way SSL
authentication and connecting agents will not be required to present
certificates.
- A script `keystore-setup` is responsible for initial keystore setup
and CSR generation on the agent/hosts.
- A script `keystore-cert-import` is responsible for import provided
certificate payload to the java keystore file.
- Agent security (keystore, certificates etc) are setup initially using
SSH, and later provisioning is handled via an existing agent connection
using command-answers. The supported clients and agents are limited to
CPVM, SSVM, and KVM agents, and clustered management server (peering).
- Certificate revocation does not revoke an existing agent-mgmt server
connection, however rejects a revoked certificate used during SSL
handshake.
- Older `cloudstackmanagement.keystore` is deprecated and will no longer
be used by mgmt server(s) for SSL negotiations and handshake. New
keystores will be named `cloud.jks`, any additional SSL certificates
should not be imported in it for use with tomcat etc. The `cloud.jks`
keystore is stricly used for agent-server communications.
- Management server keystore are validated and renewed on start up only,
the validity of them are same as the CA certificates.
New APIs:
- listCaProviders: lists all available CA provider plugins
- listCaCertificate: lists the CA certificate(s)
- issueCertificate: issues X509 client certificate with/without a CSR
- provisionCertificate: provisions certificate to a host
- revokeCertificate: revokes a client certificate using its serial
Global settings for the CA framework:
- ca.framework.provider.plugin: The configured CA provider plugin
- ca.framework.cert.keysize: The key size for certificate generation
- ca.framework.cert.signature.algorithm: The certificate signature algorithm
- ca.framework.cert.validity.period: Certificate validity in days
- ca.framework.cert.automatic.renewal: Certificate auto-renewal setting
- ca.framework.background.task.delay: CA background task delay/interval
- ca.framework.cert.expiry.alert.period: Days to check and alert expiring certificates
Global settings for the default 'root' CA provider:
- ca.plugin.root.private.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA private key
- ca.plugin.root.public.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA public key
- ca.plugin.root.ca.certificate: (hidden/encrypted) CA certificate
- ca.plugin.root.issuer.dn: The CA issue distinguished name
- ca.plugin.root.auth.strictness: Are clients required to present certificates
- ca.plugin.root.allow.expired.cert: Are clients with expired certificates allowed
UI changes:
- Button to download/save the CA certificates.

This implements an out-of-band management plugin for nested-cloudstack
environments where the hypervisor host is a VM in a parent CloudStack environment
that is used as a host in the (testing) CloudStack environment. This plugin
allows power operations to translate into start/stop/reboot of the VM (host).
The out-of-band management configuration accepted are:
- Address: The API URL of the parent CloudStack enviroment
- Port: The uuid of the (host) VM in the parent CloudStack environment
- Username: The apikey of the user account who has ownership on the (host) VM
- Password: The secretkey of the user account who has ownership on the (host) VM
Note: change password of the oobm interface is not support by this plugin

Host-HA offers investigation, fencing and recovery mechanisms for host that for
any reason are malfunctioning. It uses Activity and Health checks to determine
current host state based on which it may degrade a host or try to recover it. On
failing to recover it, it may try to fence the host.
The core feature is implemented in a hypervisor agnostic way, with two separate
implementations of the driver/provider for Simulator and KVM hypervisors. The
framework also allows for implementation of other hypervisor specific provider
implementation in future.
The Host-HA provider implementation for KVM hypervisor uses the out-of-band
management sub-system to issue IPMI calls to reset (recover) or poweroff (fence)
a host.
The Host-HA provider implementation for Simulator provides a means of testing
and validating the core framework implementation.

Support access to a host’s out-of-band management interface (e.g. IPMI, iLO,
DRAC, etc.) to manage host power operations (on/off etc.) and querying current
power state in CloudStack.
Given the wide range of out-of-band management interfaces such as iLO and iDRA,
the service implementation allows for development of separate drivers as plugins.
This feature comes with a ipmitool based driver that uses the
ipmitool (http://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool) to communicate with any
out-of-band management interface that support IPMI 2.0.
This feature allows following common use-cases:
- Restarting stalled/failed hosts
- Powering off under-utilised hosts
- Powering on hosts for provisioning or to increase capacity
- Allowing system administrators to see the current power state of the host
For testing this feature `ipmisim` can be used:

This feature allows root administrators to define new roles and associate API
permissions to them.
A limited form of role-based access control for the CloudStack management server
API is provided through a properties file, commands.properties, embedded in the
WAR distribution. Therefore, customizing API permissions requires unpacking the
distribution and modifying this file consistently on all servers. The old system
also does not permit the specification of additional roles.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Dynamic+Role+Based+API+Access+Checker+for+CloudStack
DB-Backed Dynamic Role Based API Access Checker for CloudStack brings following
changes, features and use-cases:
- Moves the API access definitions from commands.properties to the mgmt server DB
- Allows defining custom roles (such as a read-only ROOT admin) beyond the
current set of four (4) roles
- All roles will resolve to one of the four known roles types (Admin, Resource
Admin, Domain Admin and User) which maintains this association by requiring
all new defined roles to specify a role type.
- Allows changes to roles and API permissions per role at runtime including additions or
removal of roles and/or modifications of permissions, without the need
of restarting management server(s)
Upgrade/installation notes:
- The feature will be enabled by default for new installations, existing
deployments will continue to use the older static role based api access checker
with an option to enable this feature
- During fresh installation or upgrade, the upgrade paths will add four default
roles based on the four default role types
- For ease of migration, at the time of upgrade commands.properties will be used
to add existing set of permissions to the default roles. cloud.account
will have a new role_id column which will be populated based on default roles
as well
Dynamic-roles migration tool: scripts/util/migrate-dynamicroles.py
- Allows admins to migrate to the dynamic role based checker at a future date
- Performs a harder one-way migrate and update
- Migrates rules from existing commands.properties file into db and deprecates it
- Enables an internal hidden switch to enable dynamic role based checker feature
Deprecate commands.properties
- Fixes apidocs and marvin to be independent of commands.properties usage
- Removes bundling of commands.properties in deb/rpm packaging
- Removes file references across codebase
