All, We've had our own storage plugins based on the 4.1 branch for awhile now. Basically everything was done in KVM on the Agent side. With the new storage framework in place for 4.2, I'm working on splitting this code between Agent-specific (attach to VM, etc) and the code that talks to the SAN apis, which should live in the new plugin. However, I seem to be missing some functionality, namely storage stats. In 4.1, GetStorageStatsCommand would be sent to the Agent, and it would call _storagePoolMgr.getStoragePool, which we'd use to update the used bytes and capacity of the storage pool.
1) with the new framework, will storage pools managed by a plugin still call GetStorageStatsCommand? This is less than ideal, but better than nothing. I'd prefer to move all code that talks to the SAN into the storage plugin and out of the KVM agent. 2) Or is there some call I can handle that I'm not noticing will already do this in the storage plugin? I can fetch the current size/used in the initialize, or even when hosts attach in the Listener (which I don't see any documentation on), but I think the plugin framework needs the equivalent of GetStorageStatsCommand if it doesn't already have it.
