6.0 Release Notes (5.0 to 6.0)

18 October 2018

We are happy to introduce OnApp 6.0 (6.0.0-55). OnApp 6.0 is a new long-term support (LTS) version. This document lists features, improvements, and fixes implemented for all available OnApp components within the 5.1-6.0 versions.


Before You Upgrade


You can upgrade to OnApp 6.0 from the 5.0 version. Before you upgrade, see the Upgrade Notes for important information about this release. Then you can follow the upgrade instructions to get your Control Panel up and running on OnApp 6.0. 


Highlights



Here you can find the key features that we deliver as a part of OnApp 6.0. You can also check other features and improvements and see the list of issues that were resolved in OnApp 6.0. 


Buckets

Buckets are introduced to merge user and company billing plans into one logical unit. Buckets consist of Access Control where you can give users access to cloud resources and Rate Card where you can set prices for the usage of these resources. The Access Control and Rate Card are arranged according to the types of resources available in your cloud, such as virtual, smart, baremetal, and others. The Federation billing plans are also adapted to the Buckets functionality.

Disable Billing

You can disable billing to hide all pricing and billing information from users in your Control Panel. When you disable billing, the virtual server and user billing statistics is not calculated. You can disable billing if you don't use Federation compute zones in your Control Panel.



Backup Plugin System

Backup Plugin System enables you to integrate OnApp with a third-party backup service. The plugin allows to back up and restore your virtual servers by means of a service that you use for backup management. OnApp provides the plugins for Veeam that you can install to your Control Panel. You can also create your own plugin to integrate OnApp with a backup service of your choice. 

Service Insertion Framework

Service Insertion Framework allows you to bring other services to OnApp. When you create the service insertion groups and pages, they become available on the main menu on your Control Panel.



Software Defined Networking

Software Defined Networking is designed for you to manage networks faster, using the VXLAN technology across OnApp cloud compute resources. SDN enables you to build level-two network infrastructure with OnApp on top of the existing level-three IP network.

Network IP Nets

OnApp introduces network IP nets that allow you to offer a broad range of networking services and create more flexibility. Now a network can include several IP nets that are IP ranges with a default gateway.



vCenter 2.0

OnApp provides a set of updates for the vCenter integration: removed Vyatta, customer networks, customer VLANs, and IP address pools. Added Manual IP Nets that are created when an IP address of a vCenter virtual server that is being imported is not a part of an IP range in any of the vCenter networks. The updated virtual server wizard allows to select a cluster and data center to import networks and data stores from.

Accelerator 2.0

Accelerator Dashboard is designed to enable acceleration for all types of networks to speed up the traffic flow for virtual servers. Accelerator enables to load your websites in several seconds regardless of the end users current location.



Migration from VMware Solutions to KVM

OnApp enables you to migrate virtual servers from vCloud Director and vCenter to KVM. The migration workflow includes several steps that you can perform from a Control Panel to get your virtual servers up and running on KVM. 

vCloud Director Multiple Organizations

OnApp provides support for vCloud Director multiple organizations within one user group. When several organizations are associated with one user group, users from each organization are created in the other organizations in the group. In such a case, users in the user group have access to multiple vCloud Director instances.



OVA

You can use OVAs to import virtual servers created on other cloud platforms to OnApp. The virtual server is created from an OVA file that you can upload to your Control Panel. OnApp enables you to create virtual servers with multiple disks and network interfaces from OVA templates. You can also convert OVA templates more than once into KVM and vCenter virtualization formats and use a simplified procedure to configure CloudBoot backup servers to support the OVA functionality.

Hot and Cold Migration

The hot and cold migration methods allow you to perform an online or offline migration of virtual servers and virtual server disks. You can apply the following hot and cold migration scenarios: virtual server can be migrated to another compute resource within the same compute zone, virtual server with disks - to another compute resource within the same compute zone and to another data store from the destination compute zone and compute resource respectively, and only disks - between compute resources that share common data stores or data store zones.



New SAML Attributes

New SAML attributes are added to import users into OnApp with a wider set of properties. It is implemented to enable importing users into OnApp cloud with a number of preset properties (user role, time zone, group, etc). These attributes can be imported into or synchronized with the Server Provider (OnApp), making it possible to configure SP users on the Identity Provider system.

Service Add-ons

Service Add-ons allow you to offer your users additional services on top of the current virtual server appliances. You can offer features such as Managed Services, Software Installations, and other components that are not integrated in OnApp.



CPU Quota

You can set a CPU quota to limit the maximum virtual server CPU load on a KVM compute resource. You can set the CPU quota for all virtual servers on a compute resource and customize the value for particular virtual servers. Before you enable the CPU quota, the default value is set to unlimited for all virtual servers on a compute resource.

Zone Types

OnApp reinforces the role of zone types in the cloud. All compute, data store, network, and backup server zones can belong to one of the following types: Virtual, Baremetal, Smart, or VPC. The VPC zone type serves vCloud Director related resources. All individual resources such as compute resources, data stores, networks, and backup servers should be assigned to zones. You cannot use unassigned resources to create virtual servers.



Notifications

Notifications enable you to set up notifications for your Control Panel. Notifications come as a replacement to the previous email notifications that you set up at the Configuration page on your Control Panel. You can select specific events to notify your users about.

Transaction Approvals

Transaction Approvals enable you to create users (approvers) who can approve or decline actions performed by other users (requesters). The approver can allow or prohibit any transaction that requires an approval in the cloud. 



Bulk Power Actions

You can simultaneously power on and power off multiple virtual servers that reside on the same Xen or KVM compute resource.

Operating System Types

You can select an operating system type for a compute resource that can be Any OS, Windows-Only, or Non-Windows. By selecting an operating system type, you can consolidate your Windows-based virtual servers to control the Microsoft licensing costs.



Downloading Reports

You can download a CSV file with cloud and billing reports from the Usage Statistics, User Group Report, Virtual Server Billing Statistics, and User Billing Statistics pages on your Control Panel.

CDN Reporting

You can conduct an in-depth analysis of your CDN resources, using CDN Reporting on top files and top referrers. You can apply different filters for every report and export it to a CSV file.



Maintenance Mode for CloudBoot

You can use the maintenance mode to temporarily take a CloudBoot compute resource out of service in order to perform fixes or upgrade procedures. 

Integrated Storage Auto Healing

OnApp introduces auto healing that is an auto-scheduling option to repair degraded virtual disks from Integrated Storage. Auto healing allows to repairs disks one by one for each data store. You can use auto healing only in case there are no serious issues with Integrated Storage.



Isolated License

The new licensing model is designed for use in an isolated environment. The Isolated License is applicable to a Control Panel that is run in a secure environment that allows no external access from the public Internet.

Hardware Info

The Hardware Info enables you to overview the hardware that is used by Control Panel to run compute resources and backup servers available in your cloud. The Hardware Info provides data on CPU, RAM, hard disk drives, networks, and other hardware components. You can also create custom fields to provide additional hardware information that you find necessary.



Container Servers

OnApp introduces container servers that are regular virtual servers based on the default CoreOS template. Container servers allow you to customize a virtual server to implement integration with Docker or other container services.

Internationalization

OnApp introduces an updated internationalization interface that is based on a standard Rails i18n system. You can add any custom language to your Control Panel and translate all the interface labels, error messages, and other texts from English into the custom language.
