h2. ucloud-scheduler
46
47
It schedules/reschedules VM that are created using ucloud-api. How does it schedules? It does by watching any changes under the _/v1/vm/_ prefix. Basically, it deals with two ETCD entries
48
49
1. Virtual Machines Entries that looks like
50
<pre><code class="javascript">
51
/v1/vm/1
52
{
53
  "owner": "ahmedbilal-admin",
54
  "specs": {
55
    "cpu": 20,
56
    "ram": 2,
57
    "hdd": 10,
58
    "sdd": 10
59
  },
60
  "hostname": "",
61
  "status": "REQUESTED_NEW" 
62
}
63
</code></pre>
64
2. Hosts Entries that look like
65
<pre><code class="javascript">
66
/v1/host/1
67
{
68
    "cpu": 32,
69
    "ram": 128,
70
    "hdd": 1024,
71
    "sdd": 0
72
    "status": "UP"
73
}
74
</code></pre>
75
76
It loop through list of host entries found under _/v1/host/_ and check whether we can run the incoming VM on that host. if we can, then it (ucloud-scheduler) sets the hostname key of incoming VM to that host. Suppose, our scheduler decides that we can run the earlier shown VM _/v1/vm/1_ on _/v1/host/1_. Then, our updated entry would look like
77
78
<pre><code class="javascript">
79
/v1/vm/1
80
{
81
  "owner": "ahmedbilal-admin",
82
  "specs": {
83
    "cpu": 20,
84
    "ram": 2,
85
    "hdd": 10,
86
    "sdd": 10
87
  },
88
  "hostname": "/v1/host/1",
89
  "status": "REQUESTED_NEW" 
90
}
91
</code></pre>
92
93
*Note* the hostname key/value pair.
94
95
h2. ucloud-vm
96
It is responsible for creating (running) / deleting (stopping) / monitoring virtual machines
97
98
It watches the _/v1/vm/_ prefix for any changes like (Virtual Machines with status like *SCHEDULED_DEPLOY* or *REQUEST_DELETE*.
99
100
On, *SCHEDULED_DEPLOY* it creates the VM and run it. On, *REQUEST_DELETE* it stops the VM. 
101
102
It is also responsible for monitoring VM statues i.e whether they are RUNNING or KILLED (in action). If a VM is killed we put that in log file, notify system administrator and restart it.
