Add policies to the content.yaml about build-tools-for-vmware-aria HOT 15 CLOSED

@joroaf It seems I will get off-projects time next week so I started working today again on this task.
I'm planning now the implementation of the other policy types, or at least the Day 2 Actions Policy as a start.
But I see not all data from the Content Sharing is represented in the Build Tools project VraNgContentSharingPolicy class, for example the list of items for content sharing.

I'd also like to know from where the string of 'policy' comes indicating the PackageContent.ContentType-s, I guess from Aria API, just for some reason I didnt find it in the docs.

Would you have a possibility for a 15-20 min sync meeting on Monday just to exchange some knowledge about the domain of the desired functionality?

@VenelinBakalov - both PR you quoted are about vRo policies, this issue is related to vRa Service Broker policies, ie: day 2 action policies, content sharing, approvals, quota etc... (see the list from @joroaf above)

Hey @RV1959,

Regarding content sharing policies? https://github.com/vmware/build-tools-for-vmware-aria/releases/tag/v2.31.0

They are supported as of 2.31.0.

Read more about them at:

https://github.com/vmware/build-tools-for-vmware-aria/blob/v2.31.0/docs/versions/v2.31.0/Release.md

Are you talking about other policies?

Closing this for now, feel free to re-open if needed.

Hello @Michaelpalacce ,

From the description, @RV1959 mentions day-2 action policies.
Looking further into vRA-NG it seems indeed this is not currently supported, is that right?

Best regards,

from build-tools-for-vmware-aria.

There is a discussion to be held around adding the new types of policies.

The Content Sharing Policy is defined like a single policy (the VraNgContentSharingPolicyStore). However in Aria there are 6 types of policies - like Approval, Day 2 etc

One possible solution is to refactor the VraNgContentSharingPolicyStore, extract the common policy logic in a parent abstract VraNgPolicyStore store and make the VraNgContentSharingPolicyStore one of its 6 derived classes. However there will be changes needed above because currently there is only one ContentType for policies - policy.

Another option is to rename the VraNgContentSharingPolicyStore to a VraNgPolicyStore without making it a base abstract class and to make it handle internally with different strategies the implementations of the different policies processings. However this seems to me will not align with the current model of architecture.

I'd say we should keep close to the model vRA itself uses, that would mean

We need to support all types of Aria Policies:
Policy Types

• Content Sharing Policy
• Resource Quota Policy
• Lease Policy
• Day 2 Actions Policy
• Approval Policy
• Deployment Limit Policy

@Michaelpalacce @joroaf this issue is going to be closed with those 2 PRs right?
#202

Or there are further extensions to the policies required? I want to create a link between the issue and the PR
