Hey Murali, The first bit of the documentation is here http://wiki.cloudstack.org/display/gen/Nicira+Integration. I will beef it up shortly.
I have some trouble with the Jira site, but I will see if I can make a patch for this. Hugo -----Original Message----- From: Murali Reddy [mailto:murali.re...@citrix.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2012 11:09 PM To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: Review Request: Nicira NVP integration for CloudStack Hugo, I reviewed the patch and its good to go into master. I will get the patch integrated into master branch. Can you please do below tasks to conclude phase 1 effort. - Since there in no flexibility to tag VIF's as Nicira integration would want, we can leave the changes you done in the CitrixResourceBase for now. But we may need to get rid of custom handling and make it more generic in the long run. One of the idea Alex & Chiradeep suggested as a solution is to have NicTO handler function which takes in NicTo and returns VIF object. So this handler needs to be implemented as CloudStack adapter, and be implemented in the Nicira integration plug-in. CitrixResoucebase needs to be changed to load the handler adapters if there is any configured adapter. Can you please open a bug to track this change? Even better if you can submit a patch. - Start documenting the effort on confluence. If can put up a small functional spec/write up on confluence explaining the feature that would be great.
