Just looking at it now. I'd really caution against having generic
calls like "device_added", since the set of things that may need to be
fetched when a device appears will likely increase significantly in
the future, even if Folsom-2 (things like security groups, QoS
settings, etc.). I'd rather have specific calls that have a
well-defined schema that we think will be reasonably stable over time.
In Nova we've had very bad experiences with RPCs that just pass large
dictionaries of data around, where the "schema" of that dictionary
grows organically over time is and is not really documented anywhere.
Good point. I'll address this
Also, at least for the OVS plugin, I'd like to avoid using the device
name as the key that is sent back. The OVS agent already knows the
attachment-id, so there's no need to pollute the code with the device
name.
Great - if the information is there then it will be used :)
Thanks,
Dan
