document general info about fakes
When the real thing isn’t available and you have some development to do these fake implementations of various drivers let you get on with your day.
A fake (in-memory) hypervisor+api.
Allows nova testing w/o a hypervisor. This module also documents the semantics of real hypervisor connections.
Bases: nova.virt.driver.ComputeDriver
The interface to this class talks in terms of ‘instances’ (Amazon EC2 and internal Nova terminology), by which we mean ‘running virtual machine’ (XenAPI terminology) or domain (Xen or libvirt terminology).
An instance has an ID, which is the identifier chosen by Nova to represent the instance further up the stack. This is unfortunately also called a ‘name’ elsewhere. As far as this layer is concerned, ‘instance ID’ and ‘instance name’ are synonyms.
Note that the instance ID or name is not human-readable or customer-controlled – it’s an internal ID chosen by Nova. At the nova.virt layer, instances do not have human-readable names at all – such things are only known higher up the stack.
Most virtualization platforms will also have their own identity schemes, to uniquely identify a VM or domain. These IDs must stay internal to the platform-specific layer, and never escape the connection interface. The platform-specific layer is responsible for keeping track of which instance ID maps to which platform-specific ID, and vice versa.
In contrast, the list_disks and list_interfaces calls may return platform-specific IDs. These identify a specific virtual disk or specific virtual network interface, and these IDs are opaque to the rest of Nova.
Some methods here take an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance. This is the datastructure used by nova.compute to store details regarding an instance, and pass them into this layer. This layer is responsible for translating that generic datastructure into terms that are specific to the virtualization platform.
Attaches the disk to an instance given the metadata disk_info
Attach the disk at device_path to the instance at mountpoint
Return performance counters associated with the given disk_id on the given instance_name. These are returned as [rd_req, rd_bytes, wr_req, wr_bytes, errs], where rd indicates read, wr indicates write, req is the total number of I/O requests made, bytes is the total number of bytes transferred, and errs is the number of requests held up due to a full pipeline.
All counters are long integers.
This method is optional. On some platforms (e.g. XenAPI) performance statistics can be retrieved directly in aggregate form, without Nova having to do the aggregation. On those platforms, this method is unused.
Note that this function takes an instance ID, not a compute.service.Instance, so that it can be called by compute.monitor.
This method is supported only by libvirt.
Detach the disk attached to the instance at mountpoint
This method is supported only by libvirt.
Retrieves the IP address of the dom0
Get a block of information about the given instance. This is returned as a dictionary containing ‘state’: The power_state of the instance, ‘max_mem’: The maximum memory for the instance, in KiB, ‘mem’: The current memory the instance has, in KiB, ‘num_cpu’: The current number of virtual CPUs the instance has, ‘cpu_time’: The total CPU time used by the instance, in nanoseconds.
This method should raise exception.NotFound if the hypervisor has no knowledge of the instance
Initialize anything that is necessary for the driver to function, including catching up with currently running VM’s on the given host.
Writes a file on the specified instance.
The first parameter is an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance, and so the instance is being specified as instance.name. The second parameter is the base64-encoded path to which the file is to be written on the instance; the third is the contents of the file, also base64-encoded.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
Return performance counters associated with the given iface_id on the given instance_id. These are returned as [rx_bytes, rx_packets, rx_errs, rx_drop, tx_bytes, tx_packets, tx_errs, tx_drop], where rx indicates receive, tx indicates transmit, bytes and packets indicate the total number of bytes or packets transferred, and errs and dropped is the total number of packets failed / dropped.
All counters are long integers.
This method is optional. On some platforms (e.g. XenAPI) performance statistics can be retrieved directly in aggregate form, without Nova having to do the aggregation. On those platforms, this method is unused.
Note that this function takes an instance ID, not a compute.service.Instance, so that it can be called by compute.monitor.
Return the IDs of all the virtual disks attached to the specified instance, as a list. These IDs are opaque to the caller (they are only useful for giving back to this layer as a parameter to disk_stats). These IDs only need to be unique for a given instance.
Note that this function takes an instance ID, not a compute.service.Instance, so that it can be called by compute.monitor.
Return the names of all the instances known to the virtualization layer, as a list.
Return the IDs of all the virtual network interfaces attached to the specified instance, as a list. These IDs are opaque to the caller (they are only useful for giving back to this layer as a parameter to interface_stats). These IDs only need to be unique for a given instance.
Note that this function takes an instance ID, not a compute.service.Instance, so that it can be called by compute.monitor.
This method is supported only by libvirt.
Transfers the disk of a running instance in multiple phases, turning off the instance before the end.
Pause the specified instance.
Reboot the specified instance.
The given parameter is an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance, and so the instance is being specified as instance.name.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
This method is called when a security group is added to an instance.
This message is sent to the virtualization drivers on hosts that are running an instance that belongs to a security group that has a rule that references the security group identified by security_group_id. It is the responsiblity of this method to make sure any rules that authorize traffic flow with members of the security group are updated and any new members can communicate, and any removed members cannot.
When ‘i-1’ launches or terminates we will recieve the message to update members of group ‘b’, at which time we will make any changes needed to the rules for instance ‘i-0’ to allow or deny traffic coming from ‘i-1’, depending on if it is being added or removed from the group.
In this scenario, ‘i-1’ could just as easily have been running on our host ‘H0’ and this method would still have been called. The point was that this method isn’t called on the host where instances of that group are running (as is the case with :method:`refresh_security_group_rules`) but is called where references are made to authorizing those instances.
An error should be raised if the operation cannot complete.
This method is called after a change to security groups.
All security groups and their associated rules live in the datastore, and calling this method should apply the updated rules to instances running the specified security group.
An error should be raised if the operation cannot complete.
Rescue the specified instance.
Resizes/Migrates the specified instance.
The flavor parameter determines whether or not the instance RAM and disk space are modified, and if so, to what size.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
resume the specified instance
Set the root password on the specified instance.
The first parameter is an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance, and so the instance is being specified as instance.name. The second parameter is the value of the new password.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
Snapshots the specified instance.
The given parameter is an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance, and so the instance is being specified as instance.name.
The second parameter is the name of the snapshot.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
Create a new instance/VM/domain on the virtualization platform.
The given parameter is an instance of nova.compute.service.Instance. This function should use the data there to guide the creation of the new instance.
The work will be done asynchronously. This function returns a task that allows the caller to detect when it is complete.
Once this successfully completes, the instance should be running (power_state.RUNNING).
If this fails, any partial instance should be completely cleaned up, and the virtualization platform should be in the state that it was before this call began.
suspend the specified instance
Removes the named VM, as if it crashed. For testing
This method is supported only by libvirt.
Unpause the specified instance.
Unrescue the specified instance.
This method is supported only by libvirt.
