[Bug 423865] Re: [FFE] Image Store UI in Eucalyptus needs local proxy
More information: niemeyer slangasek: This is a new feature being introduced to add support in Eucalyptus to download and register images automatically through the Eucalyptus admin interface itself niemeyer slangasek: A bad scenario for this feature is to not work at all, but this won't mean that other parts of the system would stop working slangasek niemeyer: well, which parts are new? The bug description talks a lot about system requirements, but I'm pretty sure most of these are already present by default? niemeyer slangasek: So the risk is self-contained, IMO niemeyer slangasek: Right.. the only new part is the image-store-proxy itself slangasek niemeyer: and that's going to be shipping where? in the server images? niemeyer slangasek: Right, next to Eucalyptus niemeyer slangasek: For the Image Store UI that is now in Eucalyptus to work at all, this proxy is needed niemeyer slangasek: So there should be a mutual dependency between them -- [FFE] Image Store UI in Eucalyptus needs local proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423865 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to eucalyptus in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

slangasek niemeyer: which twisted modules are used, specifically? niemeyer slangasek: twisted.web, twisted.internet.defer, twisted.internet.threads, twisted.python.failure, twisted.internet.address, twisted.trial.unittest niemeyer I believe that's it FFe granted. -- [FFE] Image Store UI in Eucalyptus needs local proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423865 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to eucalyptus in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
