Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 16:09:53 UTC

Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vmware-workstation-driver.

Description:

Wrote a driver for vmware workstation to make openstack have the ability to create, and manage VMs in vmware workstation. Right now, it seems openstack only support vmware esxi and v-center. If clients only have vmware-workstation license and wanna integrate to openstack env, we would like to have the driver for them. With vmware's vmrun command line tool, it give us a oppotunity to implements this, although it also cloud have some limitations.
