Description

Today, users can specify sort of returned entities by "name", default ascending order. Users can specify sort of returned instances by "status", "cluster", "starttime" and "endtime". Default order is asc for status & cluster. Default order is desc for "starttime" and "endtime".

We plan to add ability to specify sort order to param orderBy. User can set orderBy to

• "field" – default order will be used
• "field:sortOrder" – specified sortOrder will be used. "asc" and "desc" are allowed options.

Update RestAPI docs accordingly.
