All, Here are my notes from the demo;
* In GCE in order to create an image using the disk, you need to terminate the instance first. Improvements to make; * Support to give the private key file path instead of using the content of the private key inside the cloud-controller.xml. * Map Stratos Partitioning concept to GCE project ids, may be?! * Use zone parameter in partition configuration to map an availability zone in GCE. @Suriya could you please create Jiras to track these improvements and also other improvements?
