template visibility in subdomains #9322

ISSUE TYPE
COMPONENT NAME
UI
CLOUDSTACK VERSION
4.19.0.0
SUMMARY

We are a school and use domains for different groups of classes. It would be good if there was an option for public templates/ISOs to be visible in subdomains as well. We cannot find a way to display templates/ISOs in the parent domain and in the subdomains. With the setting share.public.templates.with.other.domains we can share templates with all domains or only with the current domain. However, there is no way to share the template only in the parent domain and in the subdomain. This would be a good extension function. With shared networks, for example, this is possible. With a parameter such as share.public.templates.with.sub.domains this could be achieved. For example: share.public.templates.with.other.domains=false share.public.templates.with.sub.domains=true

@andre-pf , valid request but can you expand on what you want with the share.public.templates.with.other.domains=false , please? it does not seem to add value to you functionality.

This was an example. If share.public.templates.with.other.domains=false public templates are only visible in the current domain of the template (and not in subdomains). This is how it is implemented now. If the new parameter is e.g. share.public.templates.with.sub.domains=true public templates are also visible in subdomains. This allows us to achieve consistent behavior. For shared networks (or even domain admins) it is already like this. They can be made visible in the subdomains too. But are not visible in other domains. For us this will be very useful because we have many independent domains with subdomains. All parent domains have their own template for educational purposes. These templates are important for the parent domains and subdomains. The other domains do not need to see these public templates.

ok, it seems you are using two switches for the same functionality, but I get it now.
