Hello, I am using a PHP API to cloudstack 4.4.2 - When I make the call
to deployVirtualMachine and attempt to pass the parm
details[0].networkrate = 1 it does not rate limit the network to 1MB.
What am I doing wrong?
It is using the default value from Global Settings:
vm.network.throttling.rate and ignores my VM compute service offering
rate. How do I force it to use the rate defined by my api call to
deployVirtualMachine?
Here is my PHP code:
//...
$displayVM = "true"; // an optional field, whether to the
display the vm to the end user or not.
$hypervisor = "KVM"; //the hypervisor on which to deploy the
virtual machine
$vars = array(
// Required by API call:
'serviceofferingid' => CUSTOM_COMPUTE_OFFERING,
'templateid'=>$templateId,
'zoneid'=>ZONE_ID,
// Optional but useful:
'details[0].networkrate'=>1, // Network Throttling of 1MB/s
not working here...
// 'networkrate'=>1,
'account'=>$account,
'displayname'=>$displayName,
'displayvm'=>$displayVM,
'domainid'=>$domainid, //ROOT_DOMAIN_ID,
'hypervisor'=>$hypervisor,
'name'=>$name,
'networkids'=>NETWORK_ID,
); // https://github.com/jasonhancock/cloudstack-api-extension
//...
$deploy = $cloudstack->deployVirtualMachine($vars); // does curl request...
Note: It will create the VM and runs fine with no errors generated...
However, when I download a 10 MB test file it will get 10MB/s download,
and does not limit it to 1MB/s.
Also, when I use the cloudstack interface to look at the Instance
Details, I do not see any rate limit set.
