CloudStack volumes and templates are one single virtual disk in case of XenServer/XCP and KVM hypervisors since the files used for templates and volumes are virtual disks (VHD, QCOW2). However, VMware volumes and templates are in OVA format, which are archives that can contain a complete VM including multiple VMDKs and other files such as ISOs. And currently, Cloudstack only supports Template creation based on OVA files containing a single disk. If a user creates a template from a OVA file containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance using this template, only the first disk is attached to the new instance and other disks are ignored.
Similarly with uploaded volumes, attaching an uploaded volume that contains multiple disks to a VM will result in only one VMDK to being attached to the VM.

This behavior needs to be improved in VMWare to support OVA files with multiple disks for both uploaded volumes and templates. i.e. If a user creates a template from a OVA file containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance using this template, the first disk should be attached to the new instance as the ROOT disk and volumes should be created based on other VMDK disks in the OVA file and should be attached to the instance.

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 used to work in earlier version but was broken during a earlier
refactor.
This commit restores the functionality, but is also adds a boolean
per storage pool type if it supports overprovisioning.
This removes the nasty if which hard codes it.
UnitTests are also added to this commit to verify this functionality
remains stable in future releases.

This implements a CloudStack Prometheus exporter as a plugin, that serves
metrics on a HTTP port.
New global settings:
1. prometheus.exporter.enable - (default: false), Enable the prometheus
exporter plugin, management server restart needed.
2. prometheus.exporter.port - (default: 9595), The prometheus exporter
server port.
3. prometheus.exporter.allowed.ips - (default: 127.0.0.1), List of comma
separated prometheus server ips (with no spaces) that should be allowed to
access the URLs.
The following list of metrics are provided per pop (zone) with the exporter:
• Per host:
o CPU cores: used, total
o CPU usage: used, total (in MHz)
o Memory usage: used, total (in MiBs)
o Total VMs running on the host
• CPU cores: allocated (per zone)
• CPU usage: allocated (per zone, in MHz)
• Memory usage: allocated (per zone, in MiBs)
• Hosts: online, offline, total
• VMs: in all states -- starting, running, stopping, stopped, destroyed,
expunging, migrating, error, unknown
• Volumes: ready, destroyed, total
• Primary Storage Pool: (Disk size) used, allocated, unallocated, total (in GiBs)
• Secondary Storage Pool: (Disk size) used, allocated, unallocated, total (in GiBs)
• Private IPs: allocated, total
• Public IPs: allocated, total
• Shared Network IPs: allocated, total
• VLANs: allocated, total
Additional metrics for the environment:
• Summed domain (level=1) limit for CPU cores
• Summed domain (level=1) limit for memory/ram

(1) add support to create/delete/revert vm snapshots on running vms with QCOW2 format
(2) add new API to create volume snapshot from vm snapshot
(3) delete metadata of vm snapshots before stopping/migrating and recover vm snapshots after starting/migrating
(4) enable deleting of VM snapshot on stopped vm or vm snapshot is not listed in qcow2 image.
(5) enable smoke tests for vmsnaphsots on KVM
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.
The S3 implementation is far from finished, this commit focusses on the bases.
- Upgrade AWS SDK to latest version.
- Rewrite S3 Template downloader.
- Rewrite S3Utils utility class.
- Improve addImageStoreS3 API command.
- Split various classes for convenience.
- Various minor improvements and code optimalisations.
A side effect of the new AWS SDK is that it, by default, uses the V4 signature. Therefore I added an option to specify the Signer, so it stays compatible with previous versions.
... of new volumes. Following changes are implemented 1. Disable or enable a pool with the
updateStoragePool api. A new 'enabled' parameter added for the same. 2. When a
pool is disabled the state of the pool is updated to 'Disabled' in the db. On
enabling it is updated back to 'Up'. Alert is raised when a pool is disabled or
enabled. 3. Updated other storage providers to also honour the disabled state.
4. A disabled pool is skipped by allocators for provisioing of new volumes. 5.
Since the allocators skip a disabled pool for provisioning of volumes, the
volumes are also not listed as a destination for volume migration.
