Josh Thompson updated VCL-561:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.4)
> Image inventory
> ---------------
>
> Key: VCL-561
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-561
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: database, vcld (backend), web gui (frontend)
> Affects Versions: 2.2.1
> Reporter: Andy Kurth
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be useful to automatically retrieve information from image revisions
> and store this information in the database.
> Some examples of information which would be valuable:
> -List of all the applications installed
> -Patches installed
> -Whether or not the firewall is enabled
> -Firewall port exceptions
> -Users stored in the image
> This information would be valuable in many ways:
> -Users could specify which application they want to use on the website and a
> list of images with that application could be displayed.
> -Licensing -- if you need to know which images contain a specific application
> in order to plan license purchases or ensure compliance.
> -Security -- Suppose your base image had an extra user account with a weak
> password. You could identify any images/revisions created from it and secure
> them.
