-Soheil ________________________________________ From: Soheil Eizadi [seiz...@infoblox.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 02, 2013 6:36 PM To: dev@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: DNS Network Domain I found that the DNS Network Domain set for Basic Networking is not getting passed down to Network Plugins. I am trying to figure out how DNS Network Domain is suppose to work for my plugin integration. I was getting a NULL value for Basic Networking for the DNS Domain even though I had set a value for it in the Wizard. After I set the value in the database, it seems to be working but wanted to understand why it was not set,I found code in the system that enforces this behavior, when I try to set it from the API. -Soheil More detail logs ..... The Domain is set in the Zone Setting to acme.com: > list zones count = 1 zone: name = testzone .. domain = acme.com .. It does not get passed down to the attached network. API call "list networks" missing networkdomain field as it is NULL. > list networks count = 1 network: id = 1065fff0-a6e2-410a-94d5-50bc72f879db name = defaultGuestNetwork acltype = Domain broadcastdomaintype = Native ..... I also tried to set it using API to set the value but get exception: ERROR [cloud.async.AsyncJobManagerImpl] (Job-Executor-20:job-20) Unexpected exception while executing org.apache.cloudstack.api.command.user.network.UpdateNetworkCmd com.cloud.exception.InvalidParameterValueException: NetworkOffering and domain suffix upgrade can be perfomed for Isolated networks only at com.cloud.network.NetworkServiceImpl.updateGuestNetwork(NetworkServiceImpl.java:1982) at com.cloud.utils.component.ComponentInstantiationPostProcessor$InterceptorDispatcher.intercept(ComponentInstantiationPostProcessor.java:125) Exception from here: // network offering and domain suffix can be updated for Isolated networks only in 3.0 if ((networkOfferingId != null || domainSuffix != null) && network.getGuestType() != GuestType.Isolated) { throw new InvalidParameterValueException("NetworkOffering and domain suffix upgrade can be perfomed for Isolated networks only"); } I've patched the database and it works for me, trying to understand why we have code to prevent it? > list networks count = 1 network: id = 1065fff0-a6e2-410a-94d5-50bc72f879db name = defaultGuestNetwork ... networkdomain = acme.com ....
