Centralized Management console for all tenants on CS 4.3.1..??

Hi All,

I need a help..

I want to monitor all the tenant VMs from a centralized VM with in the
Cloud Stack.

" Here my testing plan is, I have two isolated accounts and each account
contains a VM .And I will be deploying a VM (which is centralized
management VM)  on ROOT account. Now I want to monitor those two isloated
account VMs from ROOT account VM." and here main concern is no two tenants
VMs will communicate.

Please can any one suggest me the best possible ways to solve my task.

My CS version is 4.3.1 and XenServer version is 6.2.0

Looking forward for your valuable comments.

Best Regards,
Anil.

Somesh,

Thank you for your replay..

My CS Environment is Advanced Zone without Security Groups option. Can we
have other possibilities like blocking communication between VMs at virtual
router (VR) level or any thing else.

If we can do blocking at VR level, can you please elaborate the process to
me (any commands need to execute in the VR).

Looking forward for your replays.

Thank You,
Anil.

Hi ilya,

Thanks for provided additional information..

We have already an existing CS Environment (with XenServer hosts) with no
security groups option enabled. So, do we have any options to re-enable
security groups option for existing zone which is already in production.

Thank You,
Anil.

A little more context to what Somesh mentioned.

If you are running Xen/KVM, then you can deploy a cloudstack zone with 
Security Groups.

This means cloudstack will manage the iptables rules on the hypervisors 
and push only the ACL rules you define in cloudstack.

This suppose to be very scalable and would solve the common firewall 
management challenges as well as need for running VLAN isolation.

Really powerful concept to say the least in very large setups and 
abstracts lots of firewall and switch level complexity.

You could use Security Groups to achieve this.

Hi All,

Comments are in line,

A quick question, Is there any possibility to stop communication between
two VMs which are using shared network (why because I need communication
between some VMs on this shared network and I don't want communication
between some VMs on this same shared network).

Waiting for your valuable replays.

Thank You,
Anil.
