[one-users] How to interrogate the scheduler

[Carlo Daffara]

Then you may look into the Green Scheduler: http://coned.utcluj.ro/GreenCloudScheduler/Documentation.html
and http://wiki.opennebula.org/ecosystem:green_cloud_scheduler
It's for 3.x, but most of the infrastructure is the same for 4.x; for example, it uses the VM hooks to activate the java
component that starts or shutdowns the nodes.

Oggetto: Re: [one-users] How to interrogate the scheduler

I know, but in my configuration I need that the unused hosts are shutted
down, so they are not usable from the scheduler.
What i need is:
before to instantiate or reschedule a VM, i check the scheduler, if the
best host selected from the scheduler is suitable to run the VM, then ok.
If the host is not suitable (e.g. the used_cpu is more than 80% and i don't
want it), then wake up one of the hosts that are in standby and repeat the
procedure.
