Hi,
I'm currently trying to implement device custom properties infrastructure in
ovirt-engine.
During discussion with Yair, we found out, that it's not clear, for what type
of devices
custom properties should be available? In engine we have the VmDeviceType enum
which
contains following values:
FLOPPY("floppy", "14"),
DISK("disk", "17"),
CDROM("cdrom", "15"),
INTERFACE("interface", "10"),
BRIDGE("bridge", "3"),
VIDEO("video", "20"),
USB("usb", "23"),
CONTROLLER("controller", "23"),
REDIR("redir", "23"),
SPICEVMC("spicevmc", "23"),
QXL("qxl"),
CIRRUS("cirrus"),
SOUND("sound"),
ICH6("ich6"),
AC97("ac97"),
MEMBALLOON("memballoon"),
SMARTCARD("smartcard"),
BALLOON("balloon"),
OTHER("other", "0"),
UNKNOWN("unknown", "-1");
But VmDevice class has two String attributes device and type. So for example a
disk is a device
which has device set to disk and type set to disk (according to
VmDeviceCommonUtils.isDisk method).
So my question is, if I have a custom properties for disk, will they be
available for all disk
devices (disk, cdrom, floppy, ...) or only for real disk? So should we support
custom properties
for all VmDeviceType enum value separately?
Thanks for suggestions
Martin
