Rohit, I checked the code here https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/useraccount-refactoring and I don't understand why we need to expose the userId parameter in the deployVm API. I think we should be using the userId of the logged in user always. Exposing the parameter at the API allows it to be set by a user to the ID of another user . Also we need validation around it to make sure it belongs to the passed account etc.
+ //Owner userId + @Parameter(name = ApiConstants.USER_ID, type = CommandType.UUID, entityType = UserResponse.class, required = true, description = "the user ID of the owner, optional to use with account and domainId. If not provided logged in user's ID is used.") + private Long userId; Prachi -----Original Message----- From: Rohit Yadav [mailto:rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com] Sent: Sunday, November 16, 2014 6:06 AM To: dev@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Major business logic refactoring: Move from Account to UserAccount Only one table will be affected. > On 16-Nov-2014, at 3:14 am, Amogh Vasekar <amogh.vase...@citrix.com> wrote: > > Question - What happens to the already existing VMs with entries in > the DB? Do we keep it NULL? NULL will be and not useful. I think it should be okay to have a db migration path that sets user_id to the first user in account_id (which usually has the same name as account) for existing VMs. The amount of code change will be minimal. Checkout some code in this branch (has the db migration code and API layer changes); https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/useraccount-refactoring Regards, Rohit Yadav Software Architect, ShapeBlue M. +91 88 262 30892 | rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com Blog: bhaisaab.org | Twitter: @_bhaisaab Find out more about ShapeBlue and our range of CloudStack related services IaaS Cloud Design & Build<http://shapeblue.com/iaas-cloud-design-and-build//> CSForge - rapid IaaS deployment framework<http://shapeblue.com/csforge/> CloudStack Consulting<http://shapeblue.com/cloudstack-consultancy/> CloudStack Software Engineering<http://shapeblue.com/cloudstack-software-engineering/> CloudStack Infrastructure Support<http://shapeblue.com/cloudstack-infrastructure-support/> CloudStack Bootcamp Training Courses<http://shapeblue.com/cloudstack-training/> This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
