OpenNebula 4.8 does not contain the OCCI server anymore #74

Closed tcrivat closed 9 years ago

tcrivat commented 9 years ago

The OCCI server is used by the ConPaaS Director to interact with OpenNebula. However, the latest version of OpenNebula (4.8, launched on August, 12th 2014) does not contain the OCCI server anymore. This is mentioned in the release notes here:

http://docs.opennebula.org/4.8/release_notes/release_notes/compatibility.html#public-clouds-apis

I tried to install this version on a local setup and, indeed, the OCCI server is missing.

The latest version of OpenNebula that contains the OCCI server (and that can be used with the current ConPaaS) is 4.7.80.

Basically I believe we simply need to make it clear in the ConPaaS documentation that users must also install an OCCI server, right? The OpenNebula release notes mention one so it is probably a good idea to follow their suggestion.

Or am I missing something?

tcrivat commented 9 years ago

In general, yes. However there is a comment in director.cfg that seems to imply that ConPaaS only works with the specific OCCI server included in OpenNebula:

"Note: ConPaaS currently supports only the default OCCI implementation that comes together with OpenNebula. It does not yet support the full OCCI-0.2 and later versions."

We need to test if others are working as well...

The other option would be to simply state that we support OpenNebula version X but not OpenNebula version Y.

Actually, 4.6 is the latest version that still has the OCCI server. In 4.7.80 it's still missing. I just installed these versions locally and checked. Should I update the documentation?

Yes, let's do it this way. Thanks!
