XML-RPC API¶

This reference documentation describes the xml-rpc methods exposed by OpenNebula. Each description consists of the method name and the input and output values.

All xml-rpc responses share a common structure.

Type	Data Type	Description
OUT	Boolean	True or false whenever is successful or not.
OUT	String	If an error occurs this is the error message.
OUT	Int	Error code.

The output will always consist of three values. The first and third ones are fixed, but the second one will contain the String error message only in case of failure. If the method is successful, the returned value may be of another Data Type.

The Error Code will contain one of the following values:

Value	Code	Meaning
0x0000	SUCCESS	Success response.
0x0100	AUTHENTICATION	User could not be authenticated.
0x0200	AUTHORIZATION	User is not authorized to perform the requested action.
0x0400	NO_EXISTS	The requested resource does not exist.
0x0800	ACTION	Wrong state to perform action.
0x1000	XML_RPC_API	Wrong parameters, e.g. param should be -1 or -2, but -3 was received.
0x2000	INTERNAL	Internal error, e.g. the resource could not be loaded from the DB.
0x4000	ALLOCATE	The resource cannot be allocated.
0x8000	LOCKED	The resource is locked.

Note

All methods expect a session string associated to the connected user as the first parameter. It has to be formed with the contents of the ONE_AUTH file, which will be <username>:<password> with the default ‘core’ auth driver.

Note

Each XML-RPC request has to be authenticated and authorized. See the Auth Subsystem documentation for more information.

The information strings returned by the one.*.info methods are XML-formatted. The complete XML Schemas (XSD) reference is included at the end of this page. We encourage you to use the -x option of the command line interface to collect sample outputs from your own infrastructure.

The methods that accept XML templates require the root element to be TEMPLATE. For instance, this template:

NAME = abc
MEMORY = 1024
ATT1 = value1

Can be also given to OpenNebula with the following XML:

<TEMPLATE>
  <NAME>abc</NAME>
  <MEMORY>1024</MEMORY>
  <ATT1>value1</ATT1>
</TEMPLATE>

Authorization Requests Reference¶

OpenNebula features a CLI that wraps the XML-RPC requests. For each XML-RPC request, the session token is authenticated, and after that the Request Manager generates an authorization request that can include more than one operation. The following tables document these requests from the different CLI commands.

Note

Commands with marked with * are asynchronous. The success response for these commands means that all preconditions passed and the action started. To check the action result you need to inspect the resource or its state.

Note

The deploy action requires the user issuing the command to have VM:ADMIN rights. This user will usually be the scheduler with the oneadmin credentials.

The scheduler deploys VMs to the Hosts over which the VM owner has MANAGE rights.

The backup action can be done by regular users through the schedule action interface (--schedule).

Actions for Templates Management¶

one.template.allocate¶

Description: Allocates a new template in OpenNebula.

IN	Boolean	true to clone the template plus any image defined in DISK. The new IMAGE_ID is set into each DISK.
OUT	Boolean	true or false whenever is successful or not
OUT	Int/String	The new template ID / The error string.
OUT	Int	Error code.
OUT	Int	ID of the original object that caused the error.

one.template.delete¶

Description: Deletes the given template from the pool.
Parameters

Type	Data Type	Description
IN	String	The session string.
IN	Int	The object ID.
IN	Boolean	true to delete the template plus any image defined in DISK.
OUT	Boolean	true or false whenever is successful or not
OUT	Int/String	The resource ID / The error string.
OUT	Int	Error code.
OUT	Int	ID of the object that caused the error.

one.template.instantiate¶

Description: Instantiates a new virtual machine from a template.
Parameters

Type	Data Type	Description
IN	String	The session string.
IN	Int	The object ID.
IN	String	Name for the new VM instance. If it is an empty string, OpenNebula will assign one automatically.
IN	Boolean	False to create the VM on pending (default), True to create it on hold.
IN	String	A string containing an extra template to be merged with the one being instantiated. It can be empty. Syntax can be the usual `attribute=value` or XML.

OUT	Int/String	The new virtual machine ID / The error string.
OUT	Int	Error code.

Sample template string:

MEMORY=4096\nCPU=4\nVCPU=4
