Re: Nova VMware support improvements

You are correct, vmwareapi_net.py is removed sometime back when hypervisor driver api (xenapi or vmwareapi) specific network interface drivers are introduced and new flags ("xenapi_vif_driver" for xenapi & "vmware_vif_driver" for vmwareapi. I have reported a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/939480) and proposed the updated documentation for upstream merge.

Subject: Re: [Openstack] Nova VMware support improvements
Right now I'd mostly like to know what the reasoning was behind making the driver only pick the first available local datastore, rather than making it configurable? Also, on http://nova.openstack.org/vmwareapi_readme.html it mentions nova.network.vmwareapi_net for vlan networking support, but it doesn't appear to actually exist in the code - am I missing something?
At present I'm just evaluating OpenStack, but support for configurable vmware storage options is one of the first things I'd look to add if it gets picked up.
Right now my Python foo is somewhat lacking, but I'll happily contribute what I can when the need arises.
Thanks,
Graham
