Feature/Component | JIRA bug | Participant | Planned Release | Short description | Last Updated | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Upgrades | ||||||
| Kishan Kavala Rohit Yadav John Burwell (ShapeBlue) | WIP FS: CloudStack Chimp | Is any of this complete? It seems that this covers several projects. | |||
Packaging | ||||||
Use embedded jetty | Rohit Yadav | |||||
Better Log handling | Paul Angus | |||||
Storage | ||||||
Shared data disk | ShapeBlue | Very large percentage of enterprises use clustering for applications such as MS SQL. CloudStack cannot currently present a disk to multiple VMs | ||||
Snapshots on SAN | Mike Tutkowski and Syed Ahmed | |||||
Ability to migrate secondary storage | Daan, Wei Zhou (Leaseweb) | |||||
Snapshot Improvements | Anshul Gangwar | Split volume snapshot process Allow VM snapshot and volume snapshots to exist together | JIRA still open. "Planned Release" needs changing | |||
Deploy user instance from VM snapshot | Sateesh Chodapuneedi | Support quick deployment of user instance from VM snapshot | JIRA still open. "Planned Release" needs changing | |||
Network | ||||||
IPv6 | Wido den Hollander | IPv6 support in Basic Networking: IPv6 in Basic Networking | ||||
DST in egress | ShapeBlue | |||||
Netscaler integration |
| (Citrix) | 4.6 | Integrate NCC with CloudStack to leverage ADC functionality and Additional Enterprise Features provided by NetScaler FS link NCC Integration With Auto Provision VPX in CloudStack
| JIRAs still open. "Planned Release" needs changing | |
Openswan with strongswan | (Citrix)
| |||||
OSPF, routed networks | ShapeBlue | Enterprises often require non-NAT/OSPF networks. 4.10 | ||||
Configurable MAC address | IDC Frontier | Enable to specify MAC address range to avoid MAC address collision when VMs are connected across zones and regions. | ||||
UI, API | ||||||
Billing Quota | (ShapeBlue) | 4.6.0 | Quota Service - FS | JIRA fixed in 4.6. Can this be deleted. | ||
RBAC or add new roles | ShapeBlue | 4.9 | Static command.properties moved to database and made user definable (RBAC Lite) | JIRA fixed in 4.9. Can this be deleted? | ||
Comments/annotations to CloudStack elements (i.e firewall rules, hypervisors, nics ) | ShapeBlue | |||||
Storage process progress feedback | ShapeBlue | Users/admins cannot see progress of storage processes such as snapshot taking, template install or template zone copy can take hours/days. Storing ‘time taken’ for snapshots would also give admins visibility into their storage performance to identify issues. | ||||
User Authenticators | ||||||
Improve SAML plugin | Rohit Yadav | 4.6.0, 4.5.2 | SAML 2.0 Plugin | JIRA fixed in 4.6. Can this be deleted? | ||
Ldap improvements (trust AD and auto import) | Rajani, Sarath | 4.7.0 | LDAP: Trust AD and Auto Import | JIRA fixed in 4.6. Can this be deleted? | ||
QA, Drivers and automation | ||||||
Better tests | ShapeBlue | 5.0 | Simulating faults in real and hybrid environments. | |||
Test environment (langur) | ShapeBlue | |||||
QA/CI environment | pdion891 Bharat Kumar | 4.6.0 |
| |||
Plugin driver certification | ShapeBlue | |||||
Crowdsource QA results | ShapeBlue | |||||
Misc | ||||||
VNC console, serial port etc | ||||||
Docker/Containers | pdion891 | 4.6.0 | Dockerfiles | |||
iSCSI and HA support in Hyper-V | Anshul Gangwar | 4.6.0 | Design document is available at iSCSI and HA support in Hyper-V | JIRAs still open. "Planned Release" needs changing | ||
Support for non-US keyboards in Console Proxy | Anshul Gangwar | 4.6.0 | Make it easier for CloudStack service providers to add their own keyboards | JIRAs still open. "Planned Release" needs changing | ||
3rd party library updates | all | A lot of libraries are outdated. effort needs to go into upgrading those | Perhaps too general. Can a specific list be added or can this task be removed since it may be part of any release or bug fiz? | |||
Architecture | ||||||
Multi-mangement server aware agents | ShapeBlue | Management server(s) should publish a list of active management servers in failover order. The list should be dynamically updated according to load/availability/location of indirect agent. Agents use this list. May require also fixing management server clustering. | Any ideas about planned release? |
