Re: [ovirt-devel] [vdsm] cleaning statistics retrieval
Sorry if I'm oversimplicating this, as I'm no core dev, so
please ignore or correct me where I'm wrong:
Can't you simply define a versioned interface between
vdsm and engine ?
this interface can be split up in different sections:
section a) must be reported : since 3.5
item 1 : all versions
item 2 : since 3.4
item 3 : since 3.5
section b) can be reported if data is available : since 3.5
item 1
item 2
section c) ???
as you can see, you can even version the sections
with all data prior to the integration of this interface
falling into section a) or a special section for
backwards compatibility.
If such a thing doesn't exist yet it's maybe hard
to introduce, but worth it.

But Vdsm cannot make this decision. Soon, Vdsm is to report the

boot time. Now assume that Vdsm fails to do so. Is the stats "partial"?
It's partial for engine-3.5, but it's complete for engine-3.4.
Vdsm should tell as much of the truth that it knows.
We could extend the "alerts" mechanism to report non-lethal errors in
getVmStats (we currently have it only in for storage domain status),
where Engine is told what's missing and why. I'm not sure if this is
really needed, though.
