             Summary: Controlling System VMs should not happen through SSH
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-450
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-450
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Management Server
            Reporter: Wido den Hollander


Currently we SSH into the System VMs to control them.

This is not doable on the longer run, it causes problems already, like 
injecting the SSH keys into the System VM ISO which is not reliable.

Inside the System VM there should be an API running which the management 
server(s) can talk to to inject DHCP entries, add loadbalancing settings to HA 
proxy, have the SSVM download a template/ISO, etc, etc.

This would mean a complete rewrite of the System VMs, but it will make them 
more robust over time.

The exact spec for this improvement still has to be written, this issue is just 
here to identify the problem.
