-----------------------------------------
Summary: Annotations on entities
Key: CLOUDSTACK-9957
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9957
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: New Feature
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Reporter: Daan Hoogland
Assignee: Daan Hoogland
Fix For: 4.11.0.0
An admin may wish to be able to add a text field for a node if it is placed in
Maintenance or Disabled - so that the next cloudstack admin knows as to why the
action has been taken. this can be implemented so it can be extended to other
entities like networks, pods, storages, etc, with the additional of an
‘annotation’ table. This table could be accessed either by the extension of
individual APIs ie. listHosts, listVirtualMachines, listNetworks,
listSnapshots, listFirewallRules or via a new API command – listAnnotations.
Creating the new API command allows annotations to be created for all elements
without the related list APIs being updated, while it does not block APIs from
being updated for further convenience.
