Bugs to fix and Features to add before a 4.2 release
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* xen-create-image man page overhaul:
|
|
|
|
- ambiguous option list with regards to parameters
|
|
|
|
- talks about Sarge and Etch
|
|
|
|
* xen-create-image --dist=... / sources.list generation should be more fine-grained
|
|
|
|
xen-tools should offer the possibility to enabled/disable
|
|
security/volatile/backports as well as
|
|
contrib/non-free/universe/restricted/multiverse for each of them
|
|
not only based on defaults plus the Dom0's sources.list
|
|
|
|
One idea is to allow parameters like
|
|
|
|
--dist="lenny:main,contrib,non-free;security;volatile:main"
|
|
|
|
and maybe (if the default will be to include security) to also
|
|
allow
|
|
|
|
--dist="lenny;no-security"
|
|
|
|
The second idea (by Mathieu Parent) is to have an
|
|
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/ which then contains files like
|
|
lenny.list, lenny-server.list, karmic.list, etc. which defaults to
|
|
$dist.list, but can be also select with --sources-list=lenny-server
|
|
(which looks for ./lenny-server.list, ./lenny-server,
|
|
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/lenny-server.list and
|
|
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/lenny-server in that order).
|
|
|
|
Third variant is to use /etc/xen-tools/sources.lists/ instead of
|
|
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/ because that directory is no
|
|
runparts-like directory.
|
|
|
|
* Test and support more file system types.
|
|
|
|
Actually this should be pretty simple now that the parameters are
|
|
stored in the configuration hash. The only issue is that trailing
|
|
whitespace is missing from the "make_fs_foo" option.
|
|
|
|
* Should check all integer expection options on other characters than digits.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Test suite should pass
|
|
|
|
Currently failing:
|
|
|
|
t/getopt.t
|
|
t/xen-delete-image.t
|
|
t/xen-tools.t
|
|
t/xt-create-xen-config.t
|
|
|
|
* Add distro name and release number to pygrub screen
|
|
|
|
* Hooks
|
|
- --vcpus
|
|
This one is trivial
|
|
|
|
- --bridge
|
|
This one is also trivial
|
|
|
|
- --passwd
|
|
shouldn't give up after only one password missmatch
|
|
|
|
- Clean up setup-hostname - copying the dom0s /etc/hosts isn't reliable
|
|
|
|
- Setup locales in the hooks?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe for a 4.3 or 5.0 release
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* LVM snapshot support as an install source.
|
|
|
|
* Clean up mounts on Ctrl-C, causes error while installing otherwise:
|
|
|
|
Removing /dev/vg0/acromantula-domu1-disk - since we're forcing the install
|
|
Can't remove open logical volume "acromantula-domu1-disk"
|
|
|
|
* btrfs support
|
|
|
|
* Clean up the hooks directory
|
|
|
|
Currently we have one directory for Ubuntu and Fedora named after
|
|
the first supported release which is then duplicated for each
|
|
subsequent release.
|
|
|
|
I'm sure this won't scale forever. So to minimise code duplication
|
|
I'd like to have one common directory per distribution (e.g. called
|
|
ubuntu-common, fedora-common, etc.) with generic hooks valid for
|
|
all or most of the releases of one distribution and then one hook
|
|
directory per release (e.g. called ubuntu-10.04 or ubuntu-lucid or
|
|
so) which has symbolic links to everything which can be used
|
|
unchanged from the common directory and new files for everything
|
|
which has to be different or only there.
|
|
|
|
* Create users, add ssh pubkeys to .ssh/authorized_keys
|
|
|
|
Still have to think of a good way of doing this. It would be nice
|
|
To specify a directory of public keys, parsing the hostnames
|
|
parsing the usernames from the ssh comment line
|
|
|
|
* More generic hooks
|
|
|
|
Deploy a web server or setup ssmtp directly via flag when setting up
|
|
the machine. Open to suggestions, should just be simple applications
|
|
|
|
* Sections for the xen-tools.conf file
|
|
|
|
Currently it's really annoying when you are trying to create VMs
|
|
on multiple subnets. It would be nice to specify with a flag what
|
|
"type" of configuration you want, and a set of options specific to
|
|
that flag could be parsed from xen-tools.conf
|
|
|
|
Stuff from Steve's TODO list / Generic TODOs
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Write more test cases.
|
|
|
|
* xen-delete-image should unallocate any used IP addresses.
