kubernetes 9 hawkular 2
vmware 7 openshift 2
ovirt 6 lenovo 2
azure 5 nuage 1
amazon 4
openstack 4
ansible_tower 2

15. Providers - VMware
New refresh strategy added
● Bypass MiqVimBroker cache
● Parse and save updates as they are delivered from the provider
● Uses VMware’s ruby gem github.com/vmware/rbvmomi
Enabled via settings:
:prototype:
:ems_vmware:
:update_driven_refresh: false
Code is located in the manageiq-providers-vmware repo under:
app/models/manageiq/providers/vmware/infra_manager/inventory

16. Providers - VMware
Classic refresh - 2.67GiB / 3.8 mins
Update driven refresh - 1.25GiB / 2.15 mins - 50% reduction

17. Providers
Openstack:
● Targeted refresh for Cloud VMs
Lenovo:
Support for new power operations:
Power_restart_node_to_setup
Power_restart_node_controller
Power_off_node_now
power_restart_node_now

18. Providers
Ovirt:
● V2V support has been re-enabled
● Graph refresh
Azure:
● Metric counter names in diagnostic settings on Azure VMs have changed eg:
Processor(_Total)% Processor Time
replaced by:
Processor Information(_Total)% Processor Time

19. Providers - Hawkular
● UX improvement - When adding a datasource, there is a need to fetch
available jdbc drivers from the middleware server. If a provider is not running,
do not display an exception when fetching jdbc drivers, but show a descriptive
warning message and allow the user to close the wizard.
● Enhancement - adding link to a VM also for middleware servers running in
domain mode.
● Error/exceptions naming unification on hawkular ruby gem and upgrade the
miq side following this. This allows the client code to rescue only one
exception.

thresholds

23. Platform
Chargeback - Optional “average” vs. “max” calculation for allocated metrics

24. API
(Alberto Bellotti)
● Fixed an issue where report result queries where returning a 404 (Tim W.)
○ When querying reports, the current user id was not specified triggering a
query for results owned by “system”. We now query for the authenticated
user of the API request.
● When creating providers, credentials must now be specified (Jillian T.)
○ This brings the API’s functionality in-par with the Classic UI.
○ Credentials must be specified either via the credentials or the
connection_configurations hash.

25. API
(Alberto Bellotti)
● Updated OPTIONS method calls so authentication is optional as per CORS
pre-flight requests (Tim W.)
Note: for OPTIONS /api/container_deployments, sensitive
data is only returned with authenticated requests.
