Greetings! I have a need to extend CloudStack to support an additional hypervisor. This is not something I consider strategic for CloudStack itself, but I have a project with a very specific need.
I have a development background but am not an active developer right now ... so looking forward to getting back in the saddle! I've never developed against the CloudStack tree before. I can't find any docs on how one would introduce support for a new hypervisor (eg. what classes, methods, etc, need to be implemented, extended, etc) and checking the source tree I can't easily see if there is a base to build from. I would appreciate any pointers about where to start looking to save me going through the entire tree from scratch. The standard CloudStack concepts should be easy enough (ha!) to map 1:1 to this additional hypervisor (including primary & secondary storage, router & secondary storage VMs, the networking concepts, etc) so I'm hoping that I can simply implement it like a VMware or Xen backend ... Thanks in advance! John.
