""" The main global manager module.
The global manager is deployed on the management host and is
responsible for making VM placement decisions and initiating VM
migrations. It exposes a REST web service, which accepts requests from
local managers. The global manager processes only one type of requests
-- reallocation of a set of VM instances. Once a request is received,
the global manager invokes a VM placement algorithm to determine
destination hosts to migrate the VMs to. Once a VM placement is
determined, the global manager submits a request to the Nova API to
migrate the VMs. The global manager is also responsible for switching
idle hosts to the sleep mode, as well as re-activating hosts when
necessary.
The global manager is agnostic of a particular implementation of the
VM placement algorithm in use. The VM placement algorithm to use can
be specified in the configuration file using the
`algorithm_vm_placement_factory` option. A VM placement algorithm can
call the Nova API to obtain the information about host characteristics
and current VM placement. If necessary, it can also query the central
database to obtain the historical information about the resource usage
by the VMs.
The global manager component provides a REST web service implemented
using the Bottle framework. The authentication is done using the admin
credentials specified in the configuration file. Upon receiving a
request from a local manager, the following steps will be performed:
1. Parse the `vm_uuids` parameter and transform it into a list of
UUIDs of the VMs to migrate.
2. Call the Nova API to obtain the current placement of VMs on the
hosts.
3. Call the function specified in the `algorithm_vm_placement_factory`
configuration option and pass the UUIDs of the VMs to migrate and
the current VM placement as arguments.
4. Call the Nova API to migrate the VMs according to the placement
determined by the `algorithm_vm_placement_factory` algorithm.
When a host needs to be switched to the sleep mode, the global manager
will use the account credentials from the `compute_user` and
`compute_password` configuration options to open an SSH connection
with the target host and then invoke the command specified in the
`sleep_command`, which defaults to `pm-suspend`.
When a host needs to be re-activated from the sleep mode, the global
manager will leverage the Wake-on-LAN technology and send a magic
packet to the target host using the `ether-wake` program and passing
the corresponding MAC address as an argument. The mapping between the
IP addresses of the hosts and their MAC addresses is initialized in
the beginning of the global manager's execution.
