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.

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

Added a source column to the user table.
Source now has only two values UNKNOWN,LDAP with UNKNOWN being the
default and is an enum is com.cloud.User.
When the source is UNKNOWN, the old method of authenticating against all
the available authenticators is used. If a source is available, only
that particular authenticator will be used.
added overloaded methods in AccountService to createUserAccount and
createUser with source specified.
added 3 new method to strip partition information from VirtualServer, LBPool, VLAN api response.
With BigIP V11.x VirtualServer, LBPool, VLAN api response has been modified.
Now BigIP returns resource name with user partition information
ex: if vlanname is vlan-100 then the get_list() will return /Common/vlan-100 (/Common -> Suer portition)
This method will strip the partition information and only returns a list with vlan name (vlan-100)

- 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)

This is a feature to handle DNS entries by means of an external DNS Provider,
such as Bind. These entries include DNS domains and reverse domains, VM records
and reverse records.
For a complete description, please refer to the design document available at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Bind+and+PowerDNS+integration+by+Globo+DNSAPI
For the discussion about this feature on the dev mailing list, please refer to
http://markmail.org/thread/fvwf36hpxotiibka
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
- changes in UI to include GloboDNS in Providers list

The proxy-arp add/del is done on firewall rule add/del.
The proxy-arp rule is deleted only when there is no static nat or dest nat rule is not using the ip.
When there is static nat or PF and firewall rule
a. Delete firewall rule. It skips delete proxy-arp because the rule is used by static nat rule.
b. After deleting fw rule if we disable static nat there is no way to delete proxy-arp rule.
On VM expunge we are deleting firewall rules first then static nat rules. This caused the stale proxy-arp
rules.
With this fix adding/deleting proxy arp rule on static nat/PF rule add/del.
