Resource Availability Calendar

Blazar Dashboard features a resource availability calendar that displays a timeline of resources, showing when each resource is reserved.

Currently, physical hosts are the only supported resource type.

Configuration

In the Horizon settings, the option OPENSTACK_BLAZAR_HOST_RESERVATION can be configured.

OPENSTACK_BLAZAR_HOST_RESERVATION = {
    'enabled': True,
    'calendar_attribute': 'hypervisor_hostname',
}

If enabled is True, the host calendar will be enabled. The option calendar_attribute is used to label each row of the calendar. By default, it uses the hypervisor_hostname attribute of a host. If the host has resource properties set, they could also be used.

In order to be able to view the calendar, a user needs permission for blazar:oshosts:get and blazar:oshosts:get_allocations.
