Hi,
I was looking into implementing the ability to disable a storage pool for
provisioning. I could think of two ways to do it
1. CloudStack admin could add a 'disabled' tag on the storage pool. The storage
pool allocators would skip the pools for allocating volumes with the 'disabled'
tag.
2. Other option would be to add 'Disabled' as one of the states of storage pool. This could be a state in
addition to "Up", "Maintenance" etc. A storage pool in "Disabled" state will
not be picked up for provisioning volumes. This would require new apis for disabling/enabling storage pool.
The first way is definitely bad, by relying on a tag which can be
modified by users.
The second way is more sane to add a state and use that state suitably
to reflect state of a storage pool.
Thoughts, comments?
Regards,
Devdeep

For my suggestion to work, though, your compute and disk offerings have to
be set up currently to make use of one or more storage tags.
The idea is then that these offerings would require your primary storage to
have a given tag or tags and it never will (effectively disabling that primary
storage from being used with your offerings).

What about changing the storage tags field of your primary storage so
it doesn't serve as a match for any compute or disk offering?

Hi folks,
I was wondering is it safe to change the Cluster Wide primary storage
to a Zone Wide primary storage (change the database,
cloud.storage_pool). This is ACS 4.3.0
Or actually better question - since I have some old NFS servers exist
as Primary Storage - is there any way to exclude this NFS (Cluster
Wide) - or disable it, so the new Volume Uploads will not use that
NFS storage...
This is some trail from the history, that I can't really delete, but
would like to completely disable further usage of this NFS server...
if possible at all...
THanks,
