Hi Jozef,
I might be completely wrong but from the subject: "Design the model
changes for support of stateful instances" I think that the goal is
slightly different than what you describe on the wiki page. The thing is
that now, when a user stops an instance, there is no way how to start
the instance again later because till now we considered all instances to
be stateless (not re-launchable).
Off the top of my head, to add stateful instances we will have to:
- distinguish between stopped (re-launchable) and terminated state
- update method which compute uptimes
- update deployment/instance launch methods to be able to work with
existing objects (now we always create new instance/deployment)
- allow start action for stopped instances (and probably for whole
deployments?) in UI
