This feature allows using templates and ISOs avoiding secondary storage as intermediate cache on KVM. The virtual machine deployment process is enhanced to supported bypassed registered templates and ISOs, delegating the work of downloading them to primary storage to the KVM agent instead of the SSVM agent.
Template and ISO registration:
- When hypervisor is KVM, a checkbox is displayed with 'Direct Download' label.
- API methods registerTemplate and registerISO are both extended with this new parameter directdownload.
- On template or ISO registration, no download job is sent to SSVM agent, CloudStack would only persist an entry on template_store_ref indicating that template or ISO has been marked as 'Direct Download' (bypassing Secondary Storage). These entries are persisted as:
template_id = Template or ISO id on vm_template table
store_id NULL
download_state = BYPASSED
state = Ready
(Note: these entries allow users to deploy virtual machine from registered templates or ISOs)
- An URL validation command is sent to a random KVM host to check if template/ISO location can be reached. Metalink are also supported by this feature. In case of a metalink, it is fetched and URL check is performed on each of its URLs.
- Checksum should be provided as indicated on #2246: {ALGORITHM}CHKSUMHASH
- After template or ISO is registered, it would be displayed in the UI
Virtual machine deployment:
When a 'Direct Download' template is selected for deployment, CloudStack would delegate template downloading to destination storage pool via destination host by a new pluggable download manager.
Download manager would handle template downloading depending on URL protocol. In case of HTTP, request headers can be set by the user via vm_template_details. Those details should be persisted as:
Key: HTTP_HEADER
Value: HEADERNAME:HEADERVALUE
In case of HTTPS, a new API method is added uploadTemplateDirectDownloadCertificate to allow user importing a client certificate into all KVM hosts' keystore before deployment.
After template or ISO is downloaded to primary storage, usual entry would be persisted on template_spool_ref indicating the mapping between template/ISO and storage pool.
This feature allow admins to dedicate a range of public IP addresses to the SSVM and CPVM, such that they can be subject to specific external firewall rules. The option to dedicate a public IP range to the System VMs (SSVM & CPVM) is added to the createVlanIpRange API method and the UI.
Solution:
Global setting 'system.vm.public.ip.reservation.mode.strictness' is added to determine if the use of the system VM reservation is strict (when true) or preferred (false), false by default.
When a range has been dedicated to System VMs, CloudStack should apply IPs from that range to
the public interfaces of the CPVM and the SSVM depending on global setting's value:
If the global setting is set to false: then CloudStack will use any unused and unreserved public IP
addresses for system VMs only when the pool of reserved IPs has been exhausted
If the global setting is set to true: then CloudStack will fail to deploy the system VM when the pool
of reserved IPs has been exhausted, citing the lack of available IPs.
UI Changes
Under Infrastructure -> Zone -> Physical Network -> Public -> IP Ranges, button 'Account' label is refactored to 'Set reservation'.
When that button is clicked, dialog displayed is also refactored, including a new checkbox 'System VMs' which indicates if range should be dedicated for CPVM and SSVM, and a note indicating its usage.
When clicking on button for any created range, UI dialog displayed indicates whether IP range is dedicated for system vms or not.

This feature allows CloudStack administrators to create layer 2 networks on CloudStack. As these networks are purely layer 2, they don't require IP addresses or Virtual Router, only VLAN is necessary (provided by administrator or assigned by CloudStack). Also, network services should be handled externally, e.g. DNS, DHCP, as they are not provided by L2 networks.
As a consequence, a new Guest Network type is created within CloudStack: L2
Description:
Network offerings and networks support new guest type: L2.
L2 Network offering creation allows administrator to select Specify VLAN or let CloudStack assign it dynamically.
L2 Network creation allows administrator to specify VLAN tag (if network offerings allows it) or simply create network.
VM deployments on L2 networks:
VMs should not IP addresses or any network service
No Virtual Router deployed on network
If Specify VLAN = true for network offering, network gets implemented using a dynamically assigned VLAN
UI changes
A new button is added on Networks tab, available for admins, to allow L2 networks creation

Added ability to specify mac in deployVirtualMachine and
addNicToVirtualMachine api endpoints.
Validates mac address to be in the form of:
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff , aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff , or aa.bb.cc.dd.ee.ff.
Ensures that mac address is a Unicast mac.
Ensures that the mac address is not already allocated for the
specified network.

ApI fails with following error : " Unable to update the private port of port forwarding rule as the rule has port range "
Solution-
Port range gets modified
This allows native CloudStack users to change password in UI when LDAP
is enabled. Overall changes:
- A new usersource returned in the listUsers response
- Removed ldap check in the UI, replaced with check based on user source
- DB changes to include user.source in user_view
- Changed UI error message for non-native users trying to change password

As of now, CloudStack can automatically import LDAP users based on the
configuration to a domain or an account. However, any new users in LDAP
aren't automatically reflected. The admin has to manually import them
again.
This feature enables admin to map LDAP group/OU to a CloudStack domain
and any changes are reflected in ACS as well.
This fixes the agreed upon url on download.cloudstack.org in various
sql files and misc scripts.

CLOUDSTACK-9321 : Multiple Internal LB rules (more than one Internal LB rule with same source IP address) are not getting resolved in the corresponding InternalLbVm instance's haproxy.cfg fileMultiple Internal LB rules (more than one Internal LB rule with same source IP address) are not getting resolved in the corresponding InternalLbVm instance's haproxy.cfg file. Moreover, each time a new Internal LB rule is added to the corresponding InternalLbVm instance, it replaces the existing one. Thus, traffic corresponding to these un-resolved (old) Internal LB rules are getting dropped by the InternalLbVm instance.
PR contents:
1) Fix for this bug.
2) Marvin test coverage for Internal LB feature on master with native ACS setup (component directory) including validations for this bug fix.
3) Enhancements on our exiting Internal LB Marvin test code (nuagevsp plugins directory) to validate this bug fix.
4) PEP8 & PyFlakes compliance with the added Marvin test code.

This PR adds an ability to Pass a new parameter, locationType,
to the “createSnapshot” API command. Depending on the locationType,
we decide where the snapshot should go in case of managed storage.
There are two possible values for the locationType param
1) `Standard`: The standard operation for managed storage is to
keep the snapshot on the device. For non-managed storage, this will
be to upload it to secondary storage. This option will be the
default.
2) `Archive`: Applicable only to managed storage. This will
keep the snapshot on the secondary storage. For non-managed
storage, this will result in an error.
The reason for implementing this feature is to avoid a single
point of failure for primary storage. Right now in case of managed
storage, if the primary storage goes down, there is no easy way
to recover data as all snapshots are also stored on the primary.
This features allows us to mitigate that risk.
