Hi Thanks for the comments!!!. Regarding EC2: (Short Background). In OpenNebula, a domain can be defined with a local set of images (DISKS) and with their EC2 counterparts (AMIs). So depending on your requirements and the status of your cluster the OpenNebula scheduler may decide to deploy the VM locally using the "DISK" description or remotely in EC2 using the AMI. So to some extent we have a dual description for the same VM, one local and one remote. (OpenNebula driver Status) Currently there is no a straightforward way to express that semantics with the libvirt XML. We have tried EC2 by directly assuming that a disk is an ami and so on. So this is doable, however: (Issues) An EC2 instance comprises not only the AMI (which could be defined with DISK and type="ami" for example) but the type (e.g. small which translates to a given memory and CPU), the allowed ports to connect to the instance, the key pair ID to ssh the VM or the IP from the elastic IP pool. (Solutions) we can either extend the attributes for example type="ami" for the DISK element type="eleasticip" for the interface attribute and so on. But some attributes would be missing (instance type or keypair). However, OpenNebula can be configured to provide defaults for them. We could also have an special element related to an EC2 description that collects all the EC2 deployment parameters... Cheers!
