The Discovery Manager remote service now performs all resource discovery tasks and some resource management tasks in private and public cloud. It replaces the previous version of the Discovery Manager and the Cloud Provider Proxy, which the platform will no longer use. The name of the Discovery Manager remote service has changed from “NODECOLLECTOR” to “NARS” and the web application has changed from "nodecollector" to "nars".
This remote service introduces asynchronous tasks with support for:
- VDC: Create and Delete
- VPN: Create, Edit and Delete
The platform's api-java-client now supports asynchronous tasks.
The platform logs this remote service in the nars logs, which replaces the nodecollector and cpp logs. Administrators can remove the old remote service webapps: nodecollector and cpp.
