There was a problem hiding this comment.
LGTM - let's merge this as/when it passes regression tests; we can't test HPE-Primera and rely on the author's own testing.

…port (apache#7889) This PR provides a new primary storage volume type called "FiberChannel" that allows access to volumes connected to hosts over fiber channel connections. It requires Multipath to provide path discovery and failover. Second, the PR adds an AdaptivePrimaryDatastoreProvider that abstracts how volumes are managed/orchestrated from the connector to communicate with the primary storage provider, using a ProviderAdapter interface, allowing the code interacting with the primary storage provider API's to be simpler and have no direct dependencies on Cloudstack code. Lastly, the PR provides an implementation of the ProviderAdapter classes for the HP Enterprise Primera line of storage solutions and the Pure Flash Array line of storage solutions.

Hello, are there any plans to support Alletra 5/6K and MP? This is probably compatible with 9K since it is based on Primera but with the general direction being the MP platform (officially GreenLake for Block) it would be interesting to see support for the new generations. |
At this time we do not have plans to test against these newer devices, but the Alletra line appears to support HPE Web Services API 1.10 which the driver is coded to. I suspect it may work as-is or with minor tweaks. |
Good point about the Web Services API. I will raise it to the Alletra engineering team to verify it. Most likely i will test it on A6K and MP arrays and let you know! |
|
Hello, We’re using a 3PAR 8000 series array with API version 1.6. Although the documentation mentions support for 3par/Primera, we cannot integrate our existing 3par storage setup with CloudStack. Is there a workaround or method for integrating our current 3PAR infrastructure without making major changes to the storage layer? We have tried both with and http://admin:pass@172.xx.xx.xx:8008/api/v1?cpg=cloudstack&hostset=kvm-cs Irrespective of whether the capacity bytes are in the API URL, or in the capacity bytes section of the UI, it always comes back with Request failed. (530) on 3par CLI it shows that the user is connected: fs9000 cli% showwsapi |
|
I'm unsure why you would be seeing that. The driver reads the capacityBytes from the provided inputs and, if its set, will validate it does not exceed the value from the arrays capacityInBytes. When it is not set, it will attempt to get the capacityInBytes from the array (if set) and use it or log the exception you are seeing. You perhaps can try using a CMK command to see if there is something happening between the UI and API when providing the inputs? you may also be able to set the capacityInBytes on the array (assuming the version of the Web Service API your using supports that). We have only tested on the HPE Web Service v1.10+. |
|
I'm working with a 3PAR system where the API version is 1.6.5. I understand some methods might differ with this version, but since I’m entering capacity manually through the UI, I assume that part should still work as expected. As for CMK, I installed the EXE and connected using credentials, but I’m a bit stuck on how to add the primary 3PAR storage to a zone from the CLI. I haven’t found clear guidance on this yet, so any help or pointers would be really appreciated! Thanks in advance! |
Resize of a volume on an NVMe-TCP pool previously failed. The provider half
worked -- FlashArrayAdapter.resize() PATCHes the array to grow the namespace --
but the KVM half was never wired up:
* LibvirtResizeVolumeCommandWrapper short-circuits MultipathSCSIPool via
handleMultipathSCSIResize(), but MultipathNVMeOFPool implements
KVMStoragePool directly rather than extending MultipathSCSIPool, so it
fell through.
* It then reached LibvirtComputingResource.getResizeScriptType(), which has
no NVMeTCP case, and threw
"Cannot determine resize type from pool type NVMeTCP".
* MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase.resize() threw UnsupportedOperationException.
Wire up the host-side half, mirroring how the Fibre Channel path is handled
(FC shipped resize in its own initial PR, apache#7889):
* LibvirtResizeVolumeCommandWrapper: dispatch MultipathNVMeOFPool to a new
handleMultipathNVMeOFResize(), alongside the existing SCSI branch.
* MultipathNVMeOFPool.resize(): delegate to the adaptor, mirroring
MultipathSCSIPool.resize().
* MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase.resize(): issue nvme ns-rescan so the kernel
observes the grown namespace without waiting for an asynchronous event
notification from the target, poll until the new size is visible, then
virsh blockresize so a running guest sees the capacity without a reboot.
Unlike the SCSI path there is no device-mapper map to grow, so no helper
script is needed; the existing rescanAllControllers() is reused.
If the namespace does not report the new size within the settle timeout we
log a warning rather than throwing: the array has already been grown at that
point, and failing here would make the management server roll back a resize
that actually happened.
The guest-notification lookup matches the domain disk source against the
/dev/disk/by-id symlink, its canonicalised /dev/nvmeXnY target, or the bare
EUI, because libvirt may report any of those forms.

When Fibre Channel managed storage was added (apache#7889) the FiberChannel pool type was added to a number of allowlists in shared managed-storage code. The NVMe-TCP work added the pool type, the KVM adaptor and the lifecycle pivot but not those allowlists, so several managed-storage operations silently did not work on an NVMe-TCP pool even though the equivalent Fibre Channel operation did. StorageSystemDataMotionStrategy: * verifyFormatWithPoolType(): RAW was accepted only on PowerFlex and FiberChannel, so any data-motion of a RAW NVMe-TCP volume was rejected outright. Message updated to match. * handleCreateTemplateFromManagedVolume(): same format check, which made createTemplate from an NVMe-TCP volume fail with the (misleading) "When using managed storage, you can only create a template from a volume on KVM currently." * the grantAccess() / revokeAccess() pair around the template copy only ran for a detached volume or for PowerFlex/FiberChannel, so an attached NVMe-TCP volume was never granted host access for the copy. Both sites are updated together so access is still revoked in the finally block. * getSnapshotDetails(): PowerFlex and FiberChannel pass the snapshot path straight through as the device address, which is also correct for array-native NVMe-TCP snapshots. ApiDBUtils.getHypervisorTypeFromZone(): NVMeTCP is a KVM-only pool type, so its presence in a zone should imply KVM in the same way the other non-QCOW2 pool types already do. StatsCollector's volume-stats format check deliberately not touched: RAW is already in its accepted-format list, so the guard never fires for NVMe-TCP volumes and adding the pool type there would be dead weight. Found by working through the test matrix @abh1sar asked for on apache#13061, which surfaced these as a family rather than one at a time.

…orage (#13061) * adapter: add NVMETCP address type and FlashArrayConnection.nsid Preparatory data-model changes for NVMe-TCP support on the adaptive storage framework. No behaviour change for existing Fibre Channel users - the extra enum value, field, and getter/setter are only exercised by callers that explicitly use them. ProviderVolume.AddressType gains a NVMETCP value alongside FIBERWWN, so adapters can declare that a volume is addressed by an NVMe EUI-128 (NGUID) rather than a SCSI WWN. FlashArrayVolume.getAddress() produces the NGUID layout expected by the Linux kernel for a FlashArray NVMe namespace: 00 + serial[0:14] + 24a937 (Pure 6-hex OUI) + serial[14:24] which matches the /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.<id> symlink emitted by udev. Fibre Channel callers (addressType != NVMETCP) still get the existing 6 + 24a9370 + serial form. FlashArrayConnection gains a nsid field to carry the namespace id the FlashArray REST API attaches to host-group-scoped NVMe connections, when it is present. * flasharray: support NVMe-TCP transport Teach FlashArrayAdapter to talk to a pool over NVMe over TCP instead of Fibre Channel. The transport is selected from a new transport= option on the storage pool URL (or the equivalent storage_pool_details entry), e.g. https://user:pass@fa:443/api?pod=cs&transport=nvme-tcp&hostgroup=cluster1 Defaults remain Fibre Channel / WWN addressing when transport is absent or anything other than nvme-tcp, so existing FC pools are unaffected. Beyond the transport parsing itself the adapter now: * Tracks a per-pool volumeAddressType (AddressType.NVMETCP or FIBERWWN) and stamps every volume it hands back to the framework with it (withAddressType), so the adaptive driver path stores the correct type=... field in the CloudStack volume path (used later by the KVM driver to locate the device). * Attaches pod-backed NVMe-TCP volumes at the host-group level (POST /connections?host_group_names=...) instead of per-host, so the array assigns a consistent NSID to every member host; falls back to per-host attach for FC or when no hostgroup is configured. * Tolerates a missing nsid in the FlashArray connections response for NVMe-TCP - Purity does not return one for host-group NVMe connections; the namespace is identified on the host by EUI-128 from FlashArrayVolume.getAddress(), so a placeholder value is returned to the caller purely for informational tracking. * Resolves NVMETCP addresses back to volumes in getVolumeByAddress by reversing the EUI-128 layout (strip optional eui. prefix, drop leading 00 and the embedded Pure OUI). * Indexes NVMe connections in getConnectionIdMap by host name (the array returns one entry per host inside a host-group connection), so connid.<hostname> tokens in the path still match in parseAndValidatePath on the KVM side. Followed by a matching adaptive/KVM driver change (separate commit). * storage: add NVMeTCP storage pool type NVMe-oF over TCP (NVMe-TCP) is conceptually a separate storage fabric from Fibre Channel / iSCSI: it speaks the NVMe command set rather than SCSI, identifies namespaces by EUI-128 NGUIDs rather than WWNs, and on Linux is multipathed natively by the nvme driver rather than by device-mapper multipath. Giving it its own StoragePoolType lets the KVM agent dispatch the adaptive driver to a dedicated NVMe-oF adapter (added in the next commit) without polluting the existing Fibre Channel code path. The new value is wired into the same format-routing and derivePath fall-through paths that already special-case FiberChannel in KVMStorageProcessor: NVMe-TCP volumes are also RAW and carry their device path in DataObjectTO.path rather than in a managedStoreTarget detail. * kvm: add MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase and NVMeTCPAdapter Introduce an NVMe-over-Fabrics counterpart to the existing MultipathSCSIAdapterBase / FiberChannelAdapter pair. NVMe-oF is conceptually distinct from SCSI - it speaks the NVMe command set, identifies namespaces by EUI-128 NGUIDs, and is multipathed by the kernel natively rather than by device-mapper - so keeping it out of the SCSI code path avoids special-casing inside every method that handles volume paths, connect, disconnect, or size lookup. MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase (abstract) * Parses volume paths of the form type=NVMETCP; address=<eui>; connid.<host>=<nsid>; ... into an AddressInfo whose path is /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.<eui> which is the udev symlink the kernel emits for every NVMe namespace. * connectPhysicalDisk polls the udev path and, on every iteration, triggers nvme ns-rescan on all local NVMe controllers, to cover target/firmware combinations that do not send an asynchronous event notification when a new namespace is mapped. * disconnectPhysicalDisk is a no-op; the kernel drops the namespace when the target removes the host-group connection. The ByPath variant only claims paths starting with /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui. so foreign paths still fall through to other adapters. * Delegates getPhysicalDisk, isConnected, and getPhysicalDiskSize to plain test -b / blockdev --getsize64 calls - no SCSI rescan, no dm multipath, no multipath-map cleanup timer. * createPhysicalDisk / createTemplateFromDisk / listPhysicalDisks / copyPhysicalDisk all throw UnsupportedOperationException - these are the responsibility of the storage provider, not the KVM adapter, same as the SCSI base. MultipathNVMeOFPool * KVMStoragePool mirror of MultipathSCSIPool. Defaults to Storage.StoragePoolType.NVMeTCP in the parameterless-fallback constructor. NVMeTCPAdapter * Concrete adapter that registers itself for Storage.StoragePoolType.NVMeTCP via the reflection-based scan in KVMStoragePoolManager. Carries no logic of its own beyond binding the base to the pool type. A similar MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase-derived NVMeRoCEAdapter (or NVMeFCAdapter) can later be added by adding one concrete subclass and a new pool-type value; the base does not assume any particular fabric-level transport. * adaptive: pick NVMeTCP pool type when transport=nvme-tcp The adaptive storage framework hard-coded FiberChannel as the KVM-side pool type for every provider it fronts. With a separate NVMeTCP pool type now available (and a dedicated NVMe-oF adapter on the KVM side), teach the lifecycle to route a pool to the right adapter based on a transport= URL parameter: https://user:pass@host/api?...&transport=nvme-tcp -> StoragePoolType.NVMeTCP -> NVMeTCPAdapter on the KVM host When the query parameter is absent the default stays FiberChannel, so existing FC deployments on Primera or FlashArray continue to work unchanged. The choice is made in the shared AdaptiveDataStoreLifeCycleImpl rather than inside each vendor plugin so every adaptive provider (FlashArray, Primera, any future one) speaks the same configuration vocabulary. * docs: note NVMe-TCP support on the FlashArray adaptive plugin in PendingReleaseNotes * kvm: implement copyPhysicalDisk on MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase The NVMe-oF KVM adapter refused every template copy request from the adaptive storage orchestrator with UnsupportedOperationException, which made it impossible to use an NVMe-TCP pool as primary storage for a VM root disk: every deploy that landed a root volume on the pool failed as soon as CloudStack tried to lay down the template. Implement it the same way FiberChannel (SCSI) does: the storage provider creates and connects a raw namespace ahead of time, then the adapter resolves the host-side /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.<NGUID> path via the existing getPhysicalDisk plumbing (which will nvme ns-rescan and wait for the symlink if the kernel has not yet picked it up) and qemu-img converts the source image into the raw block device. User-space encrypted source or destination volumes are rejected: the FlashArray already encrypts at rest and layering qemu-img LUKS on top of a hostgroup-scoped namespace shared between hosts is not a sensible layering. Source encryption would also break on migration because the passphrase does not travel. With this change a CloudStack KVM VM can have its ROOT volume on an NVMe-TCP pool (tested end-to-end on 4.23-SNAPSHOT against Purity 6.7.7: template copy, first boot, live migrate with data disk, VM snapshot with quiesce, and revert all work). Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * kvm/flasharray: address review feedback on NVMe-TCP PR Apply the review comments from the first round on #13061: * FlashArrayAdapter.snapshot() and both getSnapshot() entry points now wrap the returned FlashArrayVolume in withAddressType(). Without this, snapshots taken against an NVMe-TCP pool had the constructor-default AddressType.FIBERWWN and ProviderSnapshot.getAddress() emitted an FC style WWN instead of the NVMe EUI-128, which the adaptive driver then persisted as the snapshot path. Verified end-to-end against Purity 6.7.7: a fresh NVMe-TCP snapshot now lands with install_path starting 006c... , matching the source volume's EUI (previously it was 6-24a9370...). * FlashArrayAdapter.attach() - retry path after 'Connection already exists' no longer requires a hostgroup-scoped match for NVMe-TCP. If hostgroup is not configured, or the existing connection is host-scoped, fall back to matching by host name, same as the Fibre Channel branch. Also normalize the 'volume lun is not found' message when no connection list is returned. * FlashArrayAdapter.attach() - initial 'Volume attach did not return lun information' exception message now mentions both lun (FC) and nsid (NVMe-TCP) so the error is not misleading on NVMe deployments. * FlashArrayAdapter.getVolumeByAddress() - validate the EUI-128 length before slicing. A short/malformed address used to throw StringIndexOutOfBoundsException deep inside getFlashArrayItem and be swallowed as 'not found'; now a clear RuntimeException is raised with the expected vs actual length. * FlashArrayVolume.getAddress() - same defensive check when building an EUI-128 from the FlashArray volume serial; if the serial is shorter than 24 hex chars, fail with a clear message instead of SIOOBE. * MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase.connectPhysicalDisk() - Integer.parseInt of the STORAGE_POOL_DISK_WAIT detail is now guarded; a non-numeric value falls back to the default rather than aborting the connect. * MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase.rescanAllControllers() - honour the boolean return from Process.waitFor(). If an nvme ns-rescan invocation does not complete in NS_RESCAN_TIMEOUT_SECS we destroyForcibly() it, so hung nvme-cli processes do not accumulate while the namespace poll loop retries. * NVMeTCPAdapter - rename LOGGER_NVMETCP to LOGGER to match the naming convention used in the other KVM adapters. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * ui: expose NVMe-TCP transport for FlashArray primary storage AddPrimaryStorage previously pinned the protocol to FiberChannel whenever the operator picked the FlashArray provider, leaving NVMe-TCP backends only reachable by hand-crafting the URL with ?transport=nvme-tcp. Surface the choice in the form: - protocols dropdown for FlashArray now offers FiberChannel and NVMeTCP (Primera stays FC-only). - when NVMeTCP is selected, the submit handler appends transport=nvme-tcp to the FlashArray URL so the adaptive lifecycle pivot in pickPoolType() resolves StoragePoolType.NVMeTCP server-side. - the generic Path field, already hidden for FiberChannel, is also hidden for NVMeTCP for parity. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * kvm: align MultipathNVMeOFPool with KVMStoragePool API change Reported by @slavkap: building this branch against current main produces a compile error in MultipathNVMeOFPool because the KVMStoragePool interface drifted between when this PR was last rebased (2026-05-22) and main today (2026-06-09): - checkingHeartBeat(HAStoragePool, HostTO) was renamed to hasHeartBeat(HAStoragePool, HostTO) - vmActivityCheck(...) was renamed to hasVmActivity(...) with the same signature Update the two overrides accordingly (both still return null as before — MultipathNVMeOFPool does not participate in the KVM-side HA heartbeat). Mirrors how MultipathSCSIPool implements them. Verified compile via mvn -pl plugins/hypervisors/kvm -am -DskipTests compile. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * kvm: guard parseAndValidatePath against null inPath @slavkap noted that parseAndValidatePath has no internal null guard. The two callers in this base class (getPhysicalDisk and connectPhysicalDisk) already pre-check via StringUtils.isEmpty(volumePath), so the current code path is safe, but as a public method it deserves defense-in-depth. Throw CloudRuntimeException with a clear message instead of letting it NPE on inPath.split(...). Mirrors how the FC sibling FiberChannelAdapter throws on an invalid address type. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * kvm/flasharray/ui: address Copilot review round 3 on NVMe-TCP PR Address the 2026-07-27 Copilot review comments: - AddPrimaryStorage.vue: set (or replace) the transport= query parameter instead of blindly appending it, so a FlashArray URL that already carries a hand-entered transport= is not left with two conflicting values. - FlashArrayVolume: slice the EUI-128 serial with explicit substring(14, 24) rather than substring(14). The length guard rejected short serials but a longer-than-expected serial would previously yield an EUI over 32 hex characters, which cannot match /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.<eui>. - FlashArrayAdapter: guard the Fibre Channel connection match against hostnames with no dot. hostname.substring(0, hostname.indexOf('.')) would throw StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when indexOf('.') == -1. Mirrors the guard already present on the NVMe-TCP branch. - MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase: MapStorageUuidToStoragePool is now a ConcurrentHashMap populated via computeIfAbsent, so concurrent callers cannot race to create duplicate pool objects or corrupt the map. - MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase: split key=value tokens with a limit of 2 so a value containing '=' is no longer silently discarded. - MultipathNVMeOFAdapterBase: throttle rescanAllControllers() during namespace discovery to once per 10s instead of on every 2s poll. Spawning one nvme ns-rescan per controller every 2s is bursty on hosts with many controllers; the first iteration still rescans immediately. No functional change to the happy path. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> * flasharray: tighten NVMe-TCP EUI-128 validation Address the 2026-08-04 Copilot follow-up: - FlashArrayVolume.getAddress() now requires the serial to match exactly 24 hexadecimal characters instead of merely rejecting shorter ones. The previous form sliced serial[0:24], so two distinct serials sharing a 24-character prefix would have produced the same EUI-128 and therefore the same volume identity. Non-hex serials are now rejected as well. - FlashArrayAdapter.getVolumeByAddress() validates the FlashArray EUI-128 layout before reversing it into a serial: 32 hexadecimal characters, a 00 prefix, and the Pure Storage OUI at offset 16. Previously any 32-character string was accepted and deterministically mapped onto a volume serial, so a malformed or tampered address could resolve to an unintended volume. Verified against a real FlashArray namespace: EUI 006c1b16ce1c034d24a9371c05ab334a passes both checks and round-trips to serial 6C1B16CE1C034D1C05AB334A and back unchanged.

Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * flasharray: connect NVMe-TCP volumes per host, not per host group Access to a managed volume is granted and revoked one host at a time: AdaptiveDataStoreDriverImpl.grantAccess() calls attach(volume, hostname) and revokeAccess() calls detach(volume, hostname). Neither the adapter context nor the data object carries the VM or its power state, so the adapter cannot tell why access is being revoked. attach() did not follow that model for NVMe-TCP. When a hostgroup was configured it created a single host-group scoped connection shared by every member host, while detach() still ran per host and deleted that shared connection. The two are irreconcilable, and live migration shows why: grantAccess(V, dst) -> POST /connections?host_group_names=cluster1 ("already exists") ... guest migrates and is now running on dst, doing I/O to V ... revokeAccess(V, src) -> DELETE /connections?host_group_names=cluster1 The DELETE removes the only connection there is, so V is revoked from the whole group including dst, the namespace disappears under the running guest, and with werror=stop the VM freezes. Group scoping was justified in a comment as giving "a consistent NSID visible to every member host", but the NSID is not used to find the namespace: it is located by its EUI-128 address (FlashArrayVolume.getAddress()), as the comment 20 lines further down already says. So the justification does not hold. Connect and disconnect per host instead, which is what Fibre Channel has always done in this same adapter and what the interface can express. The hostgroup parameter remains accepted and is now used only where it was documented to be used -- removing leftover group connections when a volume is deleted -- matching the "retrieve for legacy purposes" comment on the field. In the "Connection already exists" path a group-scoped match is demoted to a fallback so volumes still carrying a group connection from an earlier release keep resolving. Found while working through the test matrix @abh1sar asked for on #13061, as the cause of the live-migration failure. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * flasharray: always stamp the pool address type on returned volumes FlashArrayVolume defaults addressType to FIBERWWN in its constructor, so a volume deserialised from the array reports an FC-style NAA WWN from getAddress() until the pool's real address type is stamped onto it. Most accessors do that via withAddressType(), but two paths returned an unstamped volume: * revert() returned the private getVolume() result directly, so reverting a snapshot on an NVMe-TCP pool produced a volume carrying an FC-style WWN. * copy() returned the newly created volume unstamped. The adaptive driver persists this one -- copyAsync() stores generatePathInfo(outVolume, ...) -- so the volume was recorded in the database with an address the host cannot resolve, since NVMe namespaces are located by EUI-128. Rather than add a third withAddressType() call at each site, stamp inside the private getVolume() accessor so every path is correct by construction. That matches the private getSnapshot() accessor, which already did this, and makes the wrap at the public getVolume() call site redundant. copy() now reuses the accessor for its source lookup instead of repeating the same GET inline, and stamps the volume it hands back. No behavioural change for Fibre Channel: FIBERWWN is what the constructor already defaulted to, so stamping it is a no-op there. Also drops a comment in getConnectionIdMap() describing connections as host-group scoped, which is no longer how NVMe-TCP volumes are connected after the preceding commit. The surrounding logic was already keyed on host name and is unchanged; only nsid vs lun differs between the transports. Found by auditing every NVMe-TCP divergence from the Fibre Channel path, on the principle that NVMe-TCP is only a different carrier: the array operations are identical and the host-side difference is an NQN instead of a WWN, which lives on the array and is never touched by this adapter (hosts are resolved by name). Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * kvm: align NVMe-oF adaptor stubs with the Fibre Channel adaptor NVMe-TCP is a different carrier for the same array operations, so the NVMe-oF storage adaptor should only diverge from MultipathSCSIAdapterBase where the transport genuinely differs. Several unimplemented methods threw UnsupportedOperationException where the Fibre Channel adaptor returns a benign value, which means a caller that degrades gracefully on Fibre Channel aborts on NVMe-TCP: * deletePhysicalDisk(): FC returns false. Namespaces are created and destroyed by the storage provider, so a host-side delete is simply not handled here; throwing from a cleanup path is worse than reporting that. * createTemplateFromDisk(), listPhysicalDisks(): FC returns null. * createFolder(): FC logs and returns true. Block storage has no directory structure, so this is a no-op rather than an error. createPhysicalDisk(), createDiskFromTemplate() and createDiskFromTemplateBacking() still throw, because the Fibre Channel adaptor throws for those too. createTemplateFromDirectDownloadFile() also still throws, but the message now states the limitation instead of reading as an oversight. The Fibre Channel implementation resolves the downloaded file with destPool.getPhysicalDisk(), which on this adaptor requires a "type=NVMETCP;address=..." path and therefore cannot describe a plain local file. Supporting it needs a separate way to present the local file as the copy source, which is left for follow-up rather than guessed at here. No functional change to the connect/disconnect paths. The comment on disconnectPhysicalDisk() is updated because it described connections as host-group scoped, which is no longer how NVMe-TCP volumes are connected, and to record why the host-side no-op is correct: the kernel drops the namespace when the target removes the connection, whereas Fibre Channel must flush its device-mapper entry. Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * kvm: support direct download templates on NVMe-oF pools createTemplateFromDirectDownloadFile() threw UnsupportedOperationException, so a template registered with directdownload=true could not be deployed onto an NVMe-TCP pool: the download itself succeeded and the deployment then failed on the host. The two path arguments are different kinds of thing, and conflating them is what made this look harder than it is. templateFilePath is a plain local file produced by the direct-download helper, while destTemplatePath is a managed volume path of the form "type=NVMETCP;address=...". Only the destination may be resolved through KVMStoragePool.getPhysicalDisk(); handing the local file to that would pass a file name to parseAndValidatePath() and fail. KVMStorageProcessor has already issued connectPhysicalDisk() for the destination by the time we are called, so the namespace is present. Worth recording that the Fibre Channel implementation does conflate them. It calls destPool.getPhysicalDisk(templateFilePath), and FiberChannelAdapter's parseAndValidatePath() treats any string without a ";" as a bare WWN, so a local file path becomes "/dev/mapper/3" + that path and the lookup cannot succeed. This implementation follows ScaleIOStorageAdaptor instead, which is the working precedent for block-backed managed storage. The template is written as QCOW2 onto the raw namespace rather than as RAW. Three reasons: it matches ScaleIO; it agrees with the QCOW2 format the template is registered with, so stored content and declared format do not contradict each other; and KVMStorageProcessor runs Qcow2Inspector.validateQcow2File() on the path we return, which for a block device that exists would fail on RAW content and then try to delete the device. The disk returned to the caller is constructed rather than being the one getPhysicalDisk() handed back, because its *name* matters and not just its path. KVMStorageProcessor puts disk.getName() into the DirectDownloadAnswer, which becomes the template's install path in template_spool_ref and later its external name, and the provider interpolates that external name into array REST calls. getPhysicalDisk() names a disk AddressInfo.toString(), e.g. AddressInfo NVMETCP [address=006c..., connectionId=2172, path=/dev/disk/by-id/...] Recording that as the install path makes the first deployment from a freshly registered template fail: revokeAccess() -> detach() builds "/connections?host_names=kvm01&volume_names=cloudstack2::<external name>" and URI.create() rejects the spaces and brackets with "Illegal character in query". The surfaced error is a misleading "Failed to update state", because the resulting CloudRuntimeException is followed by applying OperationFailed to a template that has already reached Ready. Naming the returned disk with the managed volume path gives the same install path shape a volume records: type=NVMETCP; address=006c...; providerName=cloudstack2::tpl-9-0-2-210; providerID=... Also handles compressed templates via TemplateDownloaderUtil, since direct-download templates are commonly published that way, and refuses up front if the template will not fit the namespace rather than failing part way through the convert. Tested on a two-host KVM cluster against a FlashArray over NVMe-TCP: registered a QCOW2 template with directdownload=true and deployed a VM from it, on the first attempt, with a storage offering tagged for the NVMe-TCP pool: ROOT-32 Everpure X90 NVMe-TCP pool2 Ready type=NVMETCP; address=006c1b16ce1c034d24a9371c0623b125 Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Signed-off-by: Eugenio Grosso <eugenio.grosso@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Eugenio Grosso <egrosso@purestorage.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

FiberChannel Multipath SCSI for KVM, Pure Flash Array and HPE-Primera Support
Description
This PR provides a new primary storage volume type called "FiberChannel" that allows access to volumes connected to hosts over fiber channel connections. It requires Multipath to provide path discovery and failover. Second, the PR adds an AdaptivePrimaryDatastoreProvider that abstracts how volumes are managed/orchestrated from the connector to communicate with the primary storage provider, using a ProviderAdapter interface, allowing the code interacting with the primary storage provider API's to be simpler and have no direct dependencies on Cloudstack code. Lastly, the PR provides an implementation of the ProviderAdapter classes for the HP Enterprise Primera line of storage solutions and the Pure Flash Array line of storage solutions.
