<div>Hi all,<br>
<br>
Feature #1727 "Patch for one.image.resize to resize image"
is also useful for OpenVZ images as it also allows to specify
image size on deploy.<br>

<br>
Thanks a lot for letting the community participate on the roadmap
planning!
<br>
<br>
For me there are two features important, which are already
described on the development portal:
<br>
<br>
#2568 "Support for RBD Format 2 images"
<br>
---------------------------------------
<br>
I have already tested the attached patch on version 4.4 and it
just works great. VM provisioning using this method is A LOT
faster than with "Format 1" images, like lightning speed.
<br>
<br>
#1727 "Patch for one.image.resize to resize image"
<br>
--------------------------------------------------
<br>
I'd like to specify the target image size in the template.
<br>
The Ubuntu Cloud Images are able to resize themself during the
first boot (see
<a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/cloud-initramfs-growroot" target="_blank">http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/cloud-initramfs-growroot</a>,
installed by default on the cloud images). So you just need the
original image (which is 2GB) and specify the size you need in the
template. This is mainly very useful for the public cloud
interface where you could provide some templates to the users
which specifies not only the ram size and cpu count, but also the
image size. So you don't have to prepare an image for every size
you'd like to provide.
<br>
<br>
Other ideas and votes
<br>
---------------------
<br>
To extend the public cloud capabilities, a customer management and
billing interface (think of "oneacct" extended to the
webinterface) would be a nice feature I'd like to see in the
future.
<br>
Better handling of VMs which are stopped by the user from inside
the VM (f.e. "shutdown -h now") would make admins life easier.
<br>
I also vote for the following Redmine tickets assigned to "Release
4.6" target version:
<br>
* #2453 "Add hostname configuration to contexualization"
<br>
* #1818 "Support for IP reservations"
<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking forward to comments on my ideas.
<br>
<br>
Cheers,
<br>
Tobias

Having released OpenNebula 4.4 Retina and closed its release
cycle, it
<br>
is time to open a new one for the next release.
<br>
<br>
We have identified the issues [1] (bugs + features) we deem
important
<br>
for the release, and we have including in that list the features
that
<br>
didn't make it in OpenNebula 4.4 in the end.
<br>
<br>
As discussed with the OpenNebula Conf attendees (see? you need
to come
<br>
next year ;) ), we want to give our users the chance to shape
the
<br>
roadmap for the upcoming OpenNebula 4.6. We invite you to submit
your
<br>
comments on the roadmap via email (ideally within this thread,
but
<br>
feel free to open a new one if you think it is necessary to
discuss
<br>
any particular topic). This valuable input will be used to shape
the
<br>
short-term roadmap with the features that will be part of the
release
<br>
cycle.
<br>
<br>
The ideal process of the discussion would be for any person
interested
<br>
in discussing a feature request to search first if there is
already a
<br>
similar one in the OpenNebula development portal [2]. If no
similar
<br>
request is found, please open one describing as best as you can
what
<br>
feature you have in mind, and let us know in this mailing list
so we
<br>
know there is interest and we need to shape the roadmap to
accommodate
<br>
it. If you find a similar request, read through the proposed
approach
<br>
and let us know if you agree on it. If not, please put a comment
in
<br>
the feature request explaining your concern, and let us know as
well
<br>
here.
<br>
<br>
We plan to close this discussion next Thursday, 16th, EOB.
<br>
<br>
It goes without saying that the more interest we see on a
feature,
<br>
more priority it will have in the short-term roadmap.
<br>
