Description Barak 2014-04-02 22:19:13 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1081049 +++

The current communication between engine and vdsm is done using XML-RPC, where the engine actually acts as client and each vdsm is the server.
This pauses a few issues that when it comes to scale effect drastically:
- XML is expensive to parse
- This mechanism forces the engine to poll each vdsm frequently for information


The intent for this phase is to:
- move to json-rpc (same API)
- change transport to a real bidirectional transport to enable vdsm->engine events in the future

Hi Kliczewski

This feature looks like a wide infrastructure change. 
Can you please provide a URL to the spec page so we can design a test plan for this?

Comment 2 Piotr Kliczewski 2014-05-27 14:03:20 UTC
Here is a link [1] to design spec.

Feature can be tested... if it has bugs it doesn't mean it can't be tested.
