Local Plugin: Sending an API call to another vCent...

ICTKevinWong · ‎07-29-2021

I am working on a defect for my company and we send API calls to the alternative vCenter if it is in linkedMode (pseudo code below). I am looking for ways to redirect or figure out CrossCall calls from one to the other, but it is failing with a 401 unauth before it even gets to the homebrewed authentication method.

vCenter 7u2

YaviJava 6.0.05 GA

What the API call looks like and how redirection is essentially done.

On vCenter A:

@RequestMapping(method = POST, value = "/{vsphereAddress}/account")
public @ResponseBody Account createAccount(@PathVariable @NOTNULL String vsphereAddress)

...

// homebrewed auth method

...

if (vsphere.isLocal(vsphereAddress)) {

// DO ACTION

}

else {

// Use Jersey Client to send exact same API call to vCenter B

}

To Resolve this, I added Spring Security to add 'permitAll' for noauth calling and the deployment seems to be timing out and failing to deploy.

Error Deploying Plug-in. The Deployment operation timed out

In vCenter: Under Tasks:

Error Deploying Plug-in. The Deployment operation timed out

Under administration-> Client Plugins when I hover over my failed plugin status

Error deploying plug-in. java.lang.InterruptedException java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.doAcquireSharedNanos(AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.java:1041)
