Hi Tim, The issue affects new deployments using existing tooling which references the original api parameter of xentrafficlabel.
It will also affect any tooling which may update the labels, although this is a rare occurance. The main issue is backwards compatibility, but also a concern that there may be other areas where the api parameters have changed from xen to xenserver. Anyone who has developed a custom UI may run into issues. Is there a list of all the API changes that have been made?

I ask because I thought I'd taken care of every scenario during upgrade.

Until 4.4, XenServer traffic label was xennetworklabel but in 4.5/master it is xenservernetworklabel. To keep backward compatibility I'm reverting such changes introduced in a8212d9ef458dd7ac64b021e6fa33fcf64b3cce0 (xenserver plugin refactoring). When in future we'll have a separate xen project plugin (based on libvirt or what have you) we should add a new label like xenprojectnetworklabel but let's keep the old one for backward compatibility's sake. It could be valid change, if so please advise any other way to maintain backward compatibility? Please comment if this is okay? The issue has been fixed on 4.5/master now: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8190 Regards, Rohit Yadav Software Architect, ShapeBlue M. +91 8826230892<tel:%2B91%208826230892> | rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com<mailto:rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com> Blog: bhaisaab.org<http://bhaisaab.org> | Twitter: @_bhaisaab PS.
