Re: CloudStack Collab in Brazil

[Rafael Weingärtner]

Hello Folks,

I have submitted the tracks. The next step now is to schedule a meeting
with the TDC organizers again. However, at this time, I need some of you in
the call. We will be discussing channels to spread the word regarding the
conference, talks selection process, maybe branding (CCC, Apache
CloudStack) with the TDC, and so on. Who would be willing to join me in
this call?


Here go the details of the tracks that I submitted.

> *Track Name:* Cloud Orchestration
> *Track slogan:* Meet the cloud builders and learn how clouds are created
> *Track description:*

> resiliency, elasticity, and scalability; thus, it is enabling companies to
> efficiently use computing resources.

> The cloud orchestration track will address topics regarding features, and
> cloud orchestration systems design (e.g. CloudStack, and OpenStack) and
> cloud data center structure. Moreover, the audience will have the
> opportunity to meet the people behind the cloud orchestration systems
> mostly deployed in the world.

*Track Name:* Cloud DevOps
> *Track slogan:* Get together with other cloud administrators and
> developers and share your daily hacks!
> *Track description:*
> Companies are either creating private clouds or using public clouds
> (sometimes doing both at the same time). This track provides a space for
> system administrators and developers to share their day-to-day tasks and
> hacks when consuming cloud resources or maintaining cloud environments.
> *Targeted audience:*
> The targeted audience is cloud developers (cloud consumers) or cloud

*Track Name:* Cloud testing and QA

> the scale and dynamism of the cloud at the same time

Re: Quetion about API 'revertSnapshot'

Hi,

I think it work on XenServer too the revert if a VM snapshot, at least, it
used to work. but I'm not sure if this API is for revert disk snapshot or
vm snapshot.

Re: Quetion about API 'revertSnapshot'

[Wei ZHOU]

Hi,

There is another api to revert a vm snapshot
https://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.11/apis/revertToVMSnapshot.html

for now, reverting a volume snapshot is only supported on KVM/QCOW2 and
managed storage

Hi Everyone,

The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache CloudStack
has invited Boris Stoyanov to become a committer and we are pleased
to announce that he has accepted.

Please join me in congratulating Bobby!


Being a committer enables easier contribution to the
project since there is no need to go via the patch
submission process. This should enable better productivity.
Being a PMC member enables assistance with the management
and to guide the direction of the project.
