Alex, just discussed your changes to existing CS code 
(Account/Domain/UserManager, VOs, Daos, GenericDaoBase), with Alex Huang. Here 
are the concerns:


1) there is no need to update the Removed field. Once the entry is removed, you 
should purely rely on the removed not to be null, in order to update it in the 
second region database.

2) The big issue - you can't trigger generic dao fields modification - 
Modified/Removed - through the Management/Services layer. Once the field is 
defined in Generic Dao Attributes, it should be populated by generic dao only. 
It should never be populated by the business logic component what your service 
is. 

You should remove the field updates from all the methods I've mentioned in my 
previous review (for example,

 AccountManager

  public boolean disableAccount(long accountId, Date modified) throws 
ConcurrentOperationException, ResourceUnavailableException;)

and find another way of keeping track of modified attribute update for the CS 
objects.

Alex suggested a following solution:
=========================================================
* Every time user/domain/account is created/updated/removed in CS, certain 
Action event is generated. There is a way to pubish this event to the event 
bus, either rabbitMQ or in-memory bus.
* Instead of scanning user/domain/account tables, your plugin should listen to 
the create/update/remove user/domain/account events published to the event bus, 
and update the user/domain/account in all regions in the system accordingly
* Of course, you have to skip the event processing for the event generated by 
your plugin - this part can be tricky
* The events processing should be synchronized on the resource type 
(user/account/domain) + event timestamp in your plugin, so all the events for 
the same resource are processed in the order based on the timeStamp they were 
generated

When to use in-memory bus vs RabbitMQ? It depends on how your service runs. If 
it runs on each management server, then it would be responsible only for events 
generated by this management server, and should use events published to 
in-memory bus.
If your server runs only on one of the Management servers, and there are 
multiple servers in the cluster, you should listen to all the events from all 
the management servers in cluster. In this case, you should use RabbitMQ bus.

Here is the link to the in-memory bus FS:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/In-memory+event+bus
But I'm sure you are familiar how this stuff works as you utilize the event bus 
in your code already.

Or you can find another solution; but this solution should never involve direct 
modification for "Modified" field by your plugin.

3) You should add a way to disable your plugin through Global Config/API. This 
should be done to support the case when user/domain/account entries are 
generated by some app running on top of CS, for all the regions in the system. 
In this case admin controls the user/domain/account entries outside of the CS, 
and synchronize them outside as well - so might need to disable your plugin.
