[jira] [Commented] (CLOUDSTACK-3469) [VMware] Support to make username/password optional while adding VMware cluster

CLOUDSTACK-3469 [VMware] Support to make username/password optional while adding VMware cluster

For legacy zones insist on the old model of asking for credentials for each cluster being added.
For non-legacy zones check if username & password are provided. If either or both not provided, try to retrieve & use the credentials from database, which are provided earlier while adding VMware DC to zone.
This lets user to not specify credentials while adding VMware cluster to zone, if the credentials are same as that of provided while adding VMware DC to zone.

> Currently AddCluster dialog (after choosing VMware) treats following 2 input parameters are mandatory.
> UI would be changing these 2 parameters to optional.
> These 2 needs to be made optional, because in some cases these 2 parameters are necessary and in some cases not. If a zone is lagacy zone these parameters are mandatory. In case of non-legacy zone these parameters are optional as at the point of adding a VMware cluster, we should have had this information already as user has provided this information already as part of adding VMware DC to zone.
> Ofcourse, even in case of non-legacy zone, user may provide this information as a specific cluster needs different credentials from the credentials specified while adding VMware DC to zone.
> While adding VMware cluster, these conditions need to be take care of.
> 1) If zone is legacy then throw Exception if username/password are not provided.
> 2) If zone is non-legacy and username/password are not provided, retrieve credentails provided by user while addiing VMware DC to zone & continue the rest of process to add VMware cluster to cloudstack zone.
> 3) If zone is non-legacy and username/password are provided, then no changes required. Just leave current logic as is.
