[Engine-devel] network wiring DD questions/comments
by Livnat Peer 20 Nov '12

20 Nov '12

Hi Alona, I reviewed the DD of wired/unwired and I have a few questions/comments - 1. update vnic while the VM is running should be limited to cluster 3.2 (except for plug/unplug) 2. RunVM - why do we need to pass the 'linkState' property to VDSM? I think that if the link is down we should pass none as the network and if the link is up we should pass the network name, like we did so far. the link-state is internal implementation detail in the engine. 3. looking on the VDSM API - * why do we need 'type' ? * why do we need 'device'? * why do we need 'alias'? * As I wrote I think we don't need 'linkState' 4. I am missing the error handling description when the user performs - Update Vnic while changing the type for example. What is the behavior if we succeed to unplug but not plug after that, etc. 5. Updated APIs section -This section is based on the fact that we pass linkstate to vdsm which is not needed IMO, so if we change that this section should be updated accordingly. 6. The EVENT section is empty, what events should be issued to audit log? I think we should have an even for update vnic and if plug/unplug is required a second event should be issued. 7. why does link state is varchar in DB? you expect to support other option in addition to up/Down (which can be represented by 1 bit), maybe n/a status? 8. About the open issues- * About deprecation of ActivateDeactivateVmNic command - I think that we should remove this command from the backend to avoid duplicate flows and bugs etc. for Backwards compatibility we should update the clients to use the new UpdateVmNetworkInterface. the down side for that is we have to make the can do action validation more complicated (according to cluster level etc.) * If we remove ActivateDeactivateVmNic there is no need to rename it ;) Thanks, Livnat

[Engine-devel] Managing permissions on network
by Livnat Peer 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Hi All, This is a proposal for handling network permissions in oVirt. In this proposal we took the more permissive approach as we find it simple and a good starting point, we also think a more restrict approach makes the configuration of a network cumbersome for ovirt administrators. Inputs are welcomed as always... Here is an overview of the approach, for more detailed description please read the wiki page: http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Feature/NetworkPermissions --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Admin ====== -> For creating a network in a data center you need to be a Superuser or a DCAdmin or a networkAdmin on the DC. -> After creating the network you can manipulate the network if you are a DCAdmin or a networkAdmin on the relevant network (or the whole DC). -> For attaching the network to cluster you need to be a networkAdmin on the network (no requirement to have permission on the cluster) -> Cluster administrator can not attach/detach a network from the cluster, the motivation for this is that as long as the network is not attached to the cluster it is not part of the cluster resources thus can not be managed by the cluster administrator. In addition once a network is attached to a cluster the cluster administrator can change the network from required to non-required for controlling the impact of the network within the cluster. -> For setting a network on the host you need to be host administrator on the host and you don't need to be network administrator. This implies that if you are a host administrator you can add/remove all the cluster networks from your host without the need for network related permissions (this is the permissive approach). User ==== -> For attaching a network to a Vnic in the VM you need to have the role of VmNetworkUser on the network and vmAdmin on the VM. -> In user portal - the list of shown network for a user will include only the list of networks the user is allowed to attach to its vnics (instead of all cluster's networks). Port-mirroring =============== -> For configuring in the VM port mirroring you need to have the role of VmAdvancedNetworkUser on the network and vmAdmin on the VM. VmAdvancedNetworkUser includes the VmNetworkUser actions in addition to port mirroring. For all DB upgrade information and new roles/action groups please review the wiki. Thanks, Livnat & Moti

hi, Vm + Vmstatic have a property 'priority'. Does anyone know where on the UI can one set this? Is this something only the rest api supports? Thx, Laszlo

Hi all, On behalf of Tomas - please check out the proposal for enhancing our SPICE integration to allow to return a custom IP/FQDN instead of the host IP address. http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/Display_Address_Override All comments are welcome... Thanks, michal
