Re: Regarding the VPC offering

[Harikrishna Patnala <Ha...@shapeblue.com>]

Hi Vivek,

For the default VPC offering, in the database I see both "InternalLbVM" and "VpcVirtualRouter" as the providers for the LB service. Though the list response in UI only shows "IntenalLbVM".  That is the reason you could create both internal and public LB tiers.

While creating a new VPC offering from UI we are providing only one option to select the provider. This could be a UI improvement to provide option to select multiple providers.

You can try API or Cloudmonkey to create a VPC offering with multiple providers. I gave it a quick try something like below.

(localcloud) 🐱 > create vpcoffering displaytext="test" name="test" supportedservices=Lb serviceProviderList[0].service=Lb serviceProviderList[0].provider=VpcVirtualRouter serviceProviderList[1].service=Lb serviceProviderList[1].provider=InternalLbVm


Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Harikrishna

Subject: Regarding the VPC offering

Hello Folks,

ACS comes with a default VPC offering which has following service enabled -

Supported Services
Dhcp : VpcVirtualRouter
Lb : InternalLbVm
NetworkACL : VpcVirtualRouter
PortForwarding : VpcVirtualRouter
Vpn : VpcVirtualRouter
Dns : VpcVirtualRouter
SourceNat : VpcVirtualRouter
StaticNat : VpcVirtualRouter
UserData : VpcVirtualRouter


— So using the default offering I can create all three type of tiers - i.e 1) Public LB tier, 2) Internal LB Tier and 3) NoLB Tier.  Recently I have created a custom VPC offering with specific systemoffering_id, below are the services - which is identical to the default vpc offering -

Supported Services
Dhcp : VpcVirtualRouter
UserData : VpcVirtualRouter
StaticNat : VpcVirtualRouter
Vpn : VpcVirtualRouter
PortForwarding : VpcVirtualRouter
Dns : VpcVirtualRouter
Lb : InternalLbVm
NetworkACL : VpcVirtualRouter
SourceNat : VpcVirtualRouter

— But from this offering I am not able to create public LB tier - it says - Service/provider combination Lb/VpcVirtualRouter is not supported by VPC [VPC [75-Indiqus-4].  So I created a another vpc offering with Lb:VpcVirtualRouter , below are the services -

Dhcp : VpcVirtualRouter
UserData : VpcVirtualRouter
StaticNat : VpcVirtualRouter
Vpn : VpcVirtualRouter
PortForwarding : VpcVirtualRouter
Dns : VpcVirtualRouter
Lb : VpcVirtualRouter
NetworkACL : VpcVirtualRouter
SourceNat : VpcVirtualRouter

But in this VPC offering I am not able to create internal LB tiers - it says - Lb/InternalLbVm is not supported by VPC [VPC [54-Indiqus-test3]   So How come I am able to create all kind of Tiers with default vpc offering.
