[Engine-devel] Backing up the DB
by Adam Litke 07 Apr '12

07 Apr '12

Hi all, I have a working development environment for ovirt-engine and I want to verify someone else's gerrit change. Is there a documented proceedure for backing up the engine db so that, after checking out the new code and updating the db schema, I can revert to my old code and DB (schema and data). Thanks! -- Adam Litke <agl(a)us.ibm.com> IBM Linux Technology Center

[Engine-devel] VDSM REST API
by Adam Litke 06 Apr '12

06 Apr '12

Hi all, At the oVirt Workshop in Beijing I learned about how the ovirt-shell dynamically discovers: the collections, resource schemas, and allowed actions based on an RSDL file and API xsd schema. I am working on a REST API for vdsm and would like to make my API compatible with the ovirt-engine api such that the same ovirt-shell program could work with either the engine api or the vdsm api. There are many differences between ovirt-engine and vdsm (namely that one is implemented in Java and the other in Python). I think the easiest way to test whether this is possible is to try and create a new, minimalist REST service with python Cherrypy. Such a service would have a root URL with no collections or actions. From my understanding I will need to write the following files: /api - A basic XML representation of the API root resource /api?schema - An xsd that describes the simple API /api?rsdl - An rsdl (XML file) that describes the available links for /api, I want to start with something dead-simple: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <api> <messages> <message id='foo' href='bar'> Hello from vdsm! </message> </messages> </api> Once I can use ovirt-shell to list messages and show messages I will be happy to build on it. Can anyone help me figure out the minimal xsd and rsdl that would be needed for such an API to be consumable by ovirt-shell? Thanks for your help! -- Adam Litke <agl(a)us.ibm.com> IBM Linux Technology Center

Hi All I've written a new wiki page [1] for a feature we've developed, called All in One. This allows configuring VDSM on the same host with rhevm (ovirt) automatically during setup. Please review and provide feedback :-) Thanks [1] http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Feature/AllInOne

[Engine-devel] Storage Domain level 3
by Tomas Jelinek 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi all, this is about supporting of I18N (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=786448) The VDSM already supports it, but only for storage domain level 3. >From Dan Kenigsberg's mail: "I hope ovirt-Engine learns to do storage domain upgrade, and uses level 3, so that this feature can be used." So, how is it with supporting this in the engine? Thank you, Tomas
