This PR introduces the initial implementation of Veeam integration support for KVM in CloudStack by adding a UHAPI-compatible server and image server components.
Veeam Backup & Replication interacts with virtualization platforms using its Universal Hypervisor API (UHAPI). To enable backup and restore workflows for CloudStack-managed KVM environments, this change introduces a UHAPI server that exposes CloudStack resources through a UHAPI-compatible interface.
In addition to the control plane APIs, an image server component is introduced to handle the data transfer operations required during backup and restore workflows.
The integration consists of two main components:
1. UHAPI Server (Control Plane) named CloudStack Veeam Control Service
A lightweight UHAPI server runs inside the CloudStack management server and exposes endpoints under:
/ovirt-engine
- /api - For APIs
- /sso - For authentication
- /services/pki-resource - For certificates
This server provides inventory discovery APIs required by Veeam and translates CloudStack resources into the structures expected by UHAPI.
The server:
- exposes infrastructure inventory
- handles authentication and session tokens
- maps CloudStack resources to UHAPI-compatible representations
2. Image Server (Data Plane) named CloudStack Image Service
A separate image server component is introduced to handle backup and restore data transfer operations.
This component:
- serves disk image data during backup
- receives image data during restore operations
- exposes endpoints used by Veeam worker components
- integrates with CloudStack storage to read and write VM disk data
The separation between both these components server ensures that:
- metadata APIs and control operations remain lightweight
- bulk image transfer operations are handled independently
