I think the main (and only) reason for the MS to access SS is to download
the system vm template.
You can copy the cloud-install-sys-tmplt script to the NFS server
(assuming that it is Linux)
Execute the script from there and supply the '-t' flag to specify the
template id. 
Template id can be determined by
select max(id) from cloud.vm_template where type = 'SYSTEM' and
hypervisor_type = 'XenServer' and removed is null
