Re: RPM-ing VCL 2.2.1

2012-06-29 Thread Everett Toews
Does anyone on the VCL core dev team have an interest in this? Should we
create a JIRA issue for it?

Regards,
Everett

 Hi All,

 I've been working on an initial spec file for VCL 2.2.1. Currently I
 believe all the dependencies, CPAN modules included, can be obtained
 from the EPEL and RPMForge repositories. If the project is going to
 support RHEL and CentOS only then providing a RPM could allow you to
 remove the requirement to run (and maintain) the perl libs install
 script.

 Still a bit more work to do, but I thought I would send it along
 before I get too far to find out if anyone has
 suggestions/comments/criticisms. :)

 You can see it here:
 https://github.com/cybera/rpmspecs/blob/master/vcl.spec

 Right now it creates 3 packages: a main doc package (just contains the
 sql files right now), a web package, and a management node package.

 One question I have is about the:

 use VMware::Vix::Simple;
 use VMware::Vix::API::Constants

 in the VIX_API.pm file. Those libraries are not, AFAIK, distributed
 with VCL and the official install docs don't ask to have them
 installed either. But the rpmbuild process picks those modules up as
 requirements.

 Thanks,
 Curtis.

Is there a particular reason you're not using the OpenStack API to control 
OpenStack? You could use the nova command line interface to do this just as 
easily. Perhaps nova image-create would fix your problem with capturing 
images?

You can find more info on the nova CLI at: 
https://github.com/openstack/python-novaclient
It's also in PyPI: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-novaclient

It's OpenStack's native API and it's very easy to install:
sudo pip install python-novaclient
or
sudo apt-get install python-novaclient
or
sudo yum install python-novaclient

Re: 2.3 release status and proposed road map

Sorry I'm getting to this thread a little late. Our priorities for 2.4
would be NAT and OpenStack support.

 Hi Josh,

 I found that php requires gettext for multilingualization (or usually,
 internationalization or i18n). Is it possible to check gettext support
 by using testsetup.php?

 we stop

  Please

  Also,
  let me know what you think of the future features.
 
  VCL 2.3 (this release)
* Service deployments
* Allow for additional access methods for environments (port, other
  protocols, etc)
* Added framework support for libvirt and specifically for KVM
* Added support for OS X under ESX
* Added support for VMware VCenter
* Added multilingualization to frontend
 
  VCL 2.4
* Power management
* Improve cluster reservations
* Service deployment configuration management
* Support for Spice remote display protocol
* Scripted installation
 
  VCL 2.5
* develop tools for managing both system and user storage
