-----------------------------------------
Summary: cleanup stale worker VMs after job expiry time
Key: CLOUDSTACK-9864
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9864
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: VMware
Reporter: Daan Hoogland
Assignee: Daan Hoogland
In the present code cleaning worker vms after a timeout is disabled, with the
documented reason that there is no API to query for related tasks in vcenter.
ACS has an expiry time for jobs and a cancel time for jobs.
- Jobs that take longer then the expiry time will have their results be be
neglected.
- Jobs that are cancelled are forcibly removed after the cancellation expity
time.
Any worker remaining after expiry+cancellation will surely be stale and can be
removed.
As some administrators may not want this behaviour there will be a setting
which by default is false that will guard against cleaning stale worker VMs.
Stale worker VMs will be cleaned after 2 * (expiry-time + cancellation-time) as
a safe margin.
related settings:
job.expire.minutes: 1440
job.cancel.threshold.minutes: 60
vmware.clean.old.worker.vms: false (new)
