Re: [openstack-dev] Efficient image cloning implementation in NetApp nfs drivers // make this part of base NFS driver

Nice idea. Actually, fast image cloning has been widely supported by most NAS devices, and VMware VAAI also started to require this criteria many years ago. However, I am not quite sure what exactly need to put into the base NFS driver, anyways, the fast cloning api will vary for specific

Now, VFIO hasn't been made generally supported by most enterprise linux distributions, and as I know, the current pci passthrough /SR-IOV implementation is still based on a historical approach. Probably we can consider the switch to VFIO framework in later releases. -Original Message-

It’s a nice idea. I am not quite familiar with android native app development, but I have some experience on mobile webapps based on jqm and phonegap. I am a little curious to know whether Openstackdroid can use a mobile webapp infrastructure so it is portable across different mobile

[openstack-dev] 答复: [OSSN] Live migration instructions recommend unsecured libvirt remote access

2014-03-07 Thread Luohao (brian)
Nathan, I have another idea of allowing vm migration without need for remote access to libvirt daemon between compute servers. As I know, vm migration data path can be independent with libvirt daemon. For example, libvirt supports delegating vm migration to the hypervisor. When a vm
