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

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

Changes;
- Upgrades maven-war plugin to 4.5 (faster war packaging)
- Upgrade spring framework to latest minor release
- Upgrade ehcache, jasypt, httpclient, httpcore and other core dependencies
- Upgrade to latest ipv6 library, fix unit test NetUtilsTest
- httpcore and httpclient are sharing same version variable
- commons-httpclient is different that httpclient, the fix gives it a separate var
- Apidocs failed to generate and get stuck with new reflections version, for now
we will continue using 0.9.8
Newer dependencies can be listed using:
mvn versions:display-dependency-updates -Dnoredist -Dsimulator -P developer,systemvm
Testing;
- Tested using Maven 3.2.1
- Local noredist build with unit tests succeeds
- CloudStack mgmt server started, basic business layer tests work
- Observed 10-15% build time improvement using new maven-war plugin
Branch: bugfix/4.5-8011 (commits are squashed in favour of a linear history)

Summary:
- new Network Service Provider called GloboDNS
- new Network Element to manage network domains and VM records (entries) on an external API
- new Network Resource to communicate with GloboDNS (open source)
- new API command to add DNS server
- new global option to determine if this provider should override VM entries on external DNS server
