Subject: [DISCUSS] Request for comments: Out-of-band Management for CloudStack (new feature)

Hi all,

I want to propose this new feature for CloudStack, to support out-of-band management for CloudStack.

In practice, most hosts have a out-of-band management such as iLO or iDRAC (that can support IPMI 2.0 for example). The idea is to allow admins to access this out-of-band management interface. Initially power-state related operations will be supported such as power on/off/reset etc. and a background service to synchronize the power states of the out-of-band management enabled hosts.

Please have a look at the FS and share your feedback on the same:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Out-of-band+Management+for+CloudStack

For testing this feature, I’ve created this tool/library that is a fake ipmi server that can be run as a standalone server/tool and also importable to write Marvin tests: https://github.com/bhaisaab/ipmisim

Thanks and regards.
PS. I’ll be demoing this feature in today’s CSEUG meetup in London
