Implements the storing of three VM metadata attributes:
1. Node limits - allows specifying a list of hosts on which the VM must
run. This limit influences the migration behaviour of VMs.
2. Per-VM node selectors - allows each VM to have its migration
autoselection method specified, to automatically allow different methods
per VM based on the administrator's preferences.
3. VM autorestart - allows a VM to be automatically restarted from a
stopped state, presumably due to a failure to find a target node (either
due to limits or otherwise) during a flush/fence recovery, on the next
node unflush/ready state of its home hypervisor. Useful mostly in
conjunction with limits to ensure that VMs which were shut down due to
there being no valid migration targets are started back up when their
node becomes ready again.
Includes the full client interaction with these metadata options,
including printing, as well as defining a new function to modify this
metadata. For the CLI it is set/modified either on `vm define` or via the
`vm meta` command. For the API it is set/modified either on a POST to
the `/vm` endpoint (during VM definition) or on POST to the `/vm/<vm>`
endpoint. For the API this replaces the previous reserved word for VM
creation from scratch as this will no longer be implemented in-daemon
(see #22).
Closes#52
This just trashed the formatting of the string if the network didn't
exist, despite several previous attempts to get this to align. Give up;
set the colour for the whole net list if any one network is invalid.
This is not as nice as per-network colouring but saves the hassle and
complexity.
This just seemed like more trouble that it was worth. Flush locks were
originally intended as a way to counteract the weird issues around
flushing that were mostly fixed by the code refactoring, so this will
help test if those issues are truly gone. If not, will look into a
cleaner solution that doesn't result in unchangeable states.
Store a basic list of RBD disks in Zookeeper for access by the node
subsystem to handle RBD locks. This avoids the need to implement complex
parsing logic inside the fencing configuration (or elsewhere).
Also handle a malformed XML content properly during VM define.
Previous to this, if once force-migrated a VM, the previous_node value
would be updated to the current node, which is likely never what an
administrator would want. Change this functionality so that the previous
node value is not changed, and update the documentation to reflect this.
This is the largest of the function files, and unlike the others is
cleanly split into four types. Reorganize the file and function
definitions around those types to make it easier to navigate, and do so
separately before refactoring for API.
