[RFE] Support for custom Amazon Regions in Provider
Last modified: 2017-05-31 10:22:51 EDT
Description of problem: Customers such as those in C2S use different amazon regions than the ones available in the UI when creating a new AWS Provider. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.7.0.7-beta1.20161025153249_9376fbd How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compute->Clouds->providers 2. Configuration->Add New Cloud Provider 3. Type=Amazon EC2 Actual results: Region selector is limited to specific values. Expected results: Ability to specify a custom AWS region that is not listed. Additional info:
Custom amazon region strings are required when deploying to specific versions of AWS. Right now the current AWS provider has a list of region strings to choose from, but no ability to specify one directly in the UI. Expect to see a dropdown list that can also be manually be changed to set a custom Amazon region string.

Additional regions can be added to the config/settings.yml file with the following format: :ems: :ems_amazon: :additional_regions: :spec-region-1: :name: Special Region :hostname: ec2.spec-region-1.amazonaws.com :description: Super Special Region
Verified in 5.8.0.9. I am able to add custom EC2 region.
