Summary: New features with CCF4XAP 2.3.7.9 .
Release Date: February 4th, 2010

Overview

CCF4XAP 2.3.7.9 minor version is focused on the following features:

Auto Delete EBS Volume

By default any machine that is terminated, does not delete its attached EBS volumes.
You can override this timeout for any machine so the attached EBS volumes are automatically deleted:

<cloud-config>
   <machines>
      <raw-machine>
	<ebs-new-volume-size>10</ebs-new-volume-size>
	<!-- Automatically delete EBS volume upon shutdown -->. 
        <ebs-volume-auto-delete>true</ebs-volume-auto-delete>
...
	</raw-machine>
</machines>

Configure run machine retry attempts

CCF4XAP retries failed attempts to start a new EC2 machine instance (via the underlying Typica API retry mechanism). The <ec2-run-machines-request-max-retries> allows to set the number of retries. By default the number of retries is set to 5.
Specifying 5 would sleep the first retry 2 seconds, then 4,8,16,32 seconds. You can decrease or increase the number of retry attempts by configuring <ec2-run-machines-request-max-retries>.

<cloud-config>
    <ec2-run-machines-request-max-retries>5</ec2-run-machines-request-max-retries>
...
</cloud-config>

Javadoc API

The public CCF4XAP API documentation could be found in the zip file under the docs\Javadoc folder. It allows starting and shutting down cloud applications from Java.
