Bug Description

This is a wishlist really: Amazon AWS versions their API and as they add features the API moves; it would be great to support the latest and greatest API facilities, but its not trivial.

One thing that could be done to make this better is documentation: Amazon clearly document the API version they support and provide docs for each release (and you can use old releases too). We should document the API version we are current with (searching for UEC API version doesn't return anything remotely useful).

While not addressing the entire issue you indicate, the current lucid package (which is r1180) includes fixes which restore client compatibility for the SOAP interface up to api-2009-11-30 and tools-46266:

Robert-

Have you been able to take a crack at the Lucid packages? Can you still identify API incompatibilities?

Marking fix-released, think this is better addressed in Lucid. Please reopen if you can reproduced it in Lucid, Robert.

I'm pretty sure this is still open: its mainly a matter of docs, to
document precisely which EC2 features are and are not supported. E.g. to
pick a single API feature - can UEC boot of off EBS yet?

I just had a quick look around using google, and still didn't find any
clear statement.

@Eucalyptus, Do you plan on documenting which version of the API you are following?

@Ye, thanks for the quick update.

Here is a list of those locations in current Maverick:
clc/modules/msgs/src/main/resources/2006-06-26-binding.xml
clc/modules/msgs/src/main/resources/2006-10-01-binding.xml

clc/modules/msgs/src/main/resources/s3-2006-03-01-binding.xml
clc/modules/msgs/src/main/resources/storage-controller-binding.xml

Does this mean we are following the 2009-11-30 API?
(aka: http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/2009-11-30/APIReference/)

If so, then the "fix" for this bug is to link to it in our docs.. Thanks :)

It means all these APIs are compatible with Eucalyptus. Chris can be more
specific, maybe.

On our site we explicitly mentioned the current version supported (http://open.eucalyptus.com/participate/contribute look for the API links). I believe the developer's corner is the right place to post such information, so I close the bug now. Feel free to re-open if we should post it somewhere else.
