549	This branch adds web based serial console access. Here is a... This branch adds web based serial console access. Here is an overview of how it works (for libvirt): 1. User requests an ajax console for an instance_id (either through OS api, or tools/euca-get-ajax-console) a. api server calls compute worker to complete request b. compute worker parses an instance's xml to locate its pseudo terminal (/dev/pts/x) c. compute worker spawns an ajaxterm daemon, bound to a random port in a specified range. socat is used to connect to /dev/pts/x. Note that ajaxterm was modified in the following ways: i. dies after 5 minutes of inactivity ii. now requires token authentication. Previously it was trivial to hijack an ajaxterm d. compute worker returns ajaxterm connect information to the api server: port, host, token e. api server casts connect information to the nova-ajax-console-proxy (a new service) f. api server returns a url for the ajaxterm (eg. http://nova-ajax-console-proxy/?token=123) 2. User now has a url, and can paste it in a browser a. Browser sends request to https://nova-ajax-console-proxy/?token=123 b. nova-ajax-console-proxy maps token to connect information c. nova-ajax-console-proxy constructs a proxy to the ajaxterm that is running on the host machine. This is now done with eventlet, though previously it was done using twisted 3. User interacts with console through web browser NOTE: For this to work as expected, serial console login must be enabled in the instance. Instructions for how to do this on ubuntu can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialConsoleHowto. Note that you must actively log out of the serial console when you are finished, otherwise the console will remain open even after the ajaxterm term session has ended. Also note that nova.sh has been modified in this branch to launch nova-ajax-console-proxy.	root	13 years ago
548	Changing DN creation to do searches for entries. Changing DN creation to do searches for entries. This change adds additional interoperability (as many directory servers and LDAP admins use cn, or another attribute, as the naming attribute). DN creation will incur a slight performance penalty for doing so, as DNs must be searched for now. User and project creation skip this performance penalty, as there is no need to search for an entry that is being created.	Ryan Lane	13 years ago

Proposed fix tries to use easy_install to install virtualenv if not present. Test by doing "run_tests.sh -V" on a system that has easy_install installed but not virtualenv.

Read Full Spec for implementation details and notes on how to boot an instance using OS API. http://etherpad.openstack.org/B2RK0q1CYj Look at these notes for known issues: http://etherpad.openstack.org/BXOU0TTj9M	Sandy Walsh	13 years ago
544	Fixed a number of issues with the iptables firewall backend: Fixed a number of issues with the iptables firewall backend: * Port specifications for firewalls come back from the data store as integers, but were compared as strings. * --icmp-type was misspelled as --icmp_type (underscore vs dash) * There weren't any unit tests for these issues.

Implementation of xs-console blueprint (adds support for console proxies like xvp) If you spin up the nova-console service, you should be able to see the xvp.conf being edited, and the xvp daemon started/stopped if you exercise the openstack console api (consoles sub-resource on servers)	Monsyne Dragon	13 years ago

541	Fixes the metadata forwarding to work by default. Fixes the metadata forwarding to work by default. This branch also moves get_my_ip into flags.py from utils.py and sets up a flag called my_ip. Any flag that was using get_my_ip can just use '$my_ip' as the default value. This allows a user to change all ips by changing one flag.	Vishvananda Ishaya	13 years ago
540	Adds support to nova-manage to modify projects Adds support to nova-manage to modify projects	rlane at wikimedia	13 years ago

This was causing the eventlet Event to have send_exception() called more than once (a no-no). This would have affected more than just pause/unpause, but any XenApi call that raised an exception.

535	Late import module for register_models() so it doesn't creat... Late import module for register_models() so it doesn't create the db before flags are loaded. This is a quick fix because trunk is broken for anything but the default database. I really think we ultimately need to remove all code that runs in __init__.py	Vishvananda Ishaya	14 years ago
534	Checks for existence of volume group using vgs instead of ch... Checks for existence of volume group using vgs instead of checking to see if /dev/nova-volumes exists. The dev is created by udev and isn't always there even if the volume group does exist.	Vishvananda Ishaya	14 years ago
533	Add a new firewall backend for libvirt, based on iptables. Add a new firewall backend for libvirt, based on iptables.	Soren Hansen	14 years ago
