Hi, I've been working with ACS 4.15 deploying to VMware hypervisors for over a year now. I'm catching up on 4.16 docs for an upgrade of our landscape. For whatever reason I'm just seeing the below regarding Non-OSS package creation if using VMware.
Could I get some clarity on this please? I'm not sure what it is meant by VMware, NetApp, or other non-oss plug-ins. Up to this point I've been using the "normal" CloudStack CentOS package repo for the ACS installation. Have I done it all wrong? ### ACS 4.16 Guide: If you need support for the VMware, NetApp, F5, NetScaler, SRX, or any other non-Open Source Software (nonoss) plugins, you'll need to download a few components on your own and follow a slightly different procedure to build from source. Some of the plugins supported by CloudStack cannot be distributed with CloudStack for licensing reasons. In some cases, some of the required libraries/JARs are under a proprietary license. In other cases, the required libraries may be under a license that's not compatible with Apache's licensing guidelines for third-party products. ### Mike Corey Technology Senior Consultant, IT CS CTW Operation & Virtualization Service US SAP AMERICA, INC. 3999 West Chester Pike, Newtown Square, 19073 United States T +1 610 661 0905, M +1 484 274 2658, E [email protected] [cid:[email protected]]
