Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 1/5] Public API to allow defining new domain using OVA file
NACK, as I said with previous postings, this does not belong in
libvirt APIs, it should be built as a layer above.
[AB]: Thanks for reviewing this
Daniel. I completly understand the concern of
not making it part of libvirt API, but as discussed in other thread
(https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-December/msg00385.html) I was unable to
find API supported way to
upload OVA disk to the ESX server (which is an integral part of OVA install).
Further this API design fundamentally flawed as it is assuming the
hypervisor
driver can access files that are on the libvirt application
machine which is not the case in general.
[AB]: If possible please suggest if there
can be any other way to overcome this design flaw.
Further, there are two unrealted reviews that I posted fixing issues with
exisitng ESX driver, it would be useful if someone can review them.
