[Engine-devel] fake VDSM as oVirt project?

Hi all, some time ago Libor Spevak created a simple web app called vdsm fake: documented: http://www.ovirt.org/VDSM_Fake published: https://github.com/lspevak/ovirt-vdsmfake It is basically a simple hackable java web application which can emulate the VDSM so you can connect the engine to it. It is especially useful for: - having tons of cheap fake hosts on one machine to stress your engine - doing some experiments with VDSM API (e.g. vfeenstr proposes a new VDSM API to lower the network traffic between engine <-> VDSM and uses the vdsm fake to implement it and do some tests to get some numbers on how does this change the things) Omer came up with an idea of making this app as one of oVirt's project (http://www.ovirt.org/Subprojects) maybe with repository on oVirt's gerrit making it more accessible for getting/contributing for the whole community. What do you think about it? Tomas

+1 I use it constantly. On Fri, Sep 13, 2013 at 8:48 AM, Tomas Jelinek <tjelinek@redhat.com> wrote:

+1 adding infra, where new git repo's are usually requested. (we also ask board if a new project scope, but this seems like just a repo for a help/test program) if more +1's and no objections, ping next week to create repo. thanks, Itamar

It would have been much cooler to fix the real vdsm so it can be run in a crippled mode with no root-related privileges. But I admit it would require more work, and would miss some of the comforts of a Java-only stub. So +1 from me.
