"resetSSHKeyForVirtualMachine Resets the SSH Key for virtual machine. The virtual machine must be in a "Stopped" state. [async]"
Apologies for causing you extra stress. We all had a long Monday. I also never used this function before and here's how I tested. - empty or move /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the VM prior to the operation - in cloudmonkey - stop virtualmachine id=XXX - reset sshkeyforvirtualmachine keypair=newkey id=XXX - start virtualmachine id=XXX - after it came back I checked /root/.ssh/authorized_keys and .. lo & behold, the new key was there. So, answer: yes, that's how to reset the SSH key and no, you can't remove it that way - it will check if the provided key name actually exists and you must provide one. ☕ :-) -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!
