11036

Update VM label from the provider during virtual infrastructure check

11029

Do not use vcloud VM name as identifier (Cannot rename a virtual machine in vCloud). Import and capture will be as per AWS. Abiquo will add its identifier as a metadata entry. If VMs do not have metadata, Abiquo will store the provider ID (vCloud URN) and use it to identify them (e.g. captured VMs). After the Administrator performs a "Clone" or "Move to Catalog" in vCloud, they must remove the duplicate metadata to prevent multiple VMs with the same ID. Customers using vCloud should contact Abiquo Support for details of the upgrade tool.

10499

Abiquo asks for more metric datapoints than AWS allows users to retrieve. Each provider transmits metrics at different intervals, for example, with Amazon Basic monitoring, data is sent every 5 minutes, and with Advanced monitoring, every minute. If you request the evaluation of an alarm more frequently than metric data is collected by the platform or sent by the provider, then the alarm will not activate.
