Nux updated CLOUDSTACK-10449: ----------------------------- Security: (was: Public) > GSoC 2022 Idea: Keep track of VM's "last known state" and enforce it after an > outage > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-10449 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10449 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Management Server > Reporter: Nux > Priority: Minor > Labels: gsoc2022, mentor, new-feature > > An infrastructure outage can take out several or all VMs. In the aftermath > it's not always possible to know which VMs were supposed to be ON or OFF, > especially if HA is not enabled. People keep powered off VMs around all the > time for many reasons. > I propose we add a feature where Cloudstack keeps track of the "last known > state" of a VM and after an outage either enforce it (ie start the VM or > leave it off) or at least show some information to the operator in the UI/API > so they can do it themselves; perhaps make this behaviour configurable in the > global settings. > Thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
