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

* Move config options to SAML plugin
This moves all configuration options from Config.java to SAML auth manager. This
allows us to use the config framework.
* Make SAML2UserAuthenticator validate SAML token in httprequest
* Make logout API use ConfigKeys defined in saml auth manager
* Before doing SAML auth, cleanup local states and cookies
* Fix configurations in 4.5.1 to 4.5.2 upgrade path
* Fail if idp has no sso URL defined
* Add a default set of SAML SP cert for testing purposes
Now to enable and use saml, one needs to do a deploydb-saml after doing a deploydb
* UI remembers login selections, IDP server
- CLOUDSTACK-8458:
* On UI show dropdown list of discovered IdPs
* Support SAML Federation, where there may be more than one IdP
- New datastructure to hold metadata of SP or IdP
- Recursive processing of IdP metadata
- Fix login/logout APIs to get new interface and metadata data structure
- Add org/contact information to metadata
- Add new API: listIdps that returns list of all discovered IdPs
- Refactor and cleanup code and tests
- CLOUDSTACK-8459:
* Add HTTP-POST binding to SP metadata
* Authn requests must use either HTTP POST/Artifact binding
- CLOUDSTACK-8461:
* Use unspecified x509 cert as a fallback encryption/signing key
In case a IDP's metadata does not clearly say if their certificates need to be
used as signing or encryption and we don't find that, fallback to use the
unspecified key itself.
- CLOUDSTACK-8462:
* SAML Auth plugin should not do authorization
This removes logic to create user if they don't exist. This strictly now
assumes that users have been already created/imported/authorized by admins.
As per SAML v2.0 spec section 4.1.2, the SP provider should create authn requests using
either HTTP POST or HTTP Artifact binding to transfer the message through a
user agent (browser in our case). The use of HTTP Redirect was one of the reasons
why this plugin failed to work for some IdP servers that enforce this.
* Add new User Source
By reusing the source field, we can find if a user has been SAML enabled or not.
The limitation is that, once say a user is imported by LDAP and then SAML
enabled - they won't be able to use LDAP for authentication
* UI should allow users to pass in domain they want to log into, though it is
optional and needed only when a user has accounts across domains with same
username and authorized IDP server
* SAML users need to be authorized before they can authenticate
- New column entity to track saml entity id for a user
- Reusing source column to check if user is saml enabled or not
- Add new source types, saml2 and saml2disabled
- New table saml_token to solve the issue of multiple users across domains and
to enforce security by tracking authn token and checking the samlresponse for
the tokens
- Implement API: authorizeSamlSso to enable/disable saml authentication for a
user
- Stubs to implement saml token flushing/expiry
- CLOUDSTACK-8463:
* Use username attribute specified in global setting
Use username attribute defined by admin from a global setting
In case of encrypted assertion/attributes:
- Decrypt them
- Check signature if provided to check authenticity of message using IdP's
public key and SP's private key
- Loop through attributes to find the username
- CLOUDSTACK-8538:
* Add new global config for SAML request sig algorithm
- CLOUDSTACK-8539:
* Add metadata refresh timer task and token expiring
- Fix domain path and save it to saml_tokens
- Expire hour old saml tokens
- Refresh metadata based on timer task
- Fix unit tests

This closes#489
The console-setup service brings a nice font to the console, but why would we
want to use it. In most cases it takes a <10 seconds to set it up. When using
nested hypervising, I found this takes much longer time that causes tests to
time-out. I'd suggest turning off these services. They are not required for the
services the systemvm provides.

This commit fixes a chmod issue where extracted vmdk file is not readable by all
users/groups. The other improvement is to use ovftool to build systemvm template
for vmware if it's available. This is based on a dev ML discussion and a suggested
