                 Key: BROOKLYN-160
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-160
             Project: Brooklyn
          Issue Type: New Feature

            Reporter: Aled Sage


A user is interested in Brooklyn provisioning a Windows VM from an AWS 
marketplace AMI, but where that Windows VM does not have WinRM enabled.

There is no convenient Windows no-op entity (the VanillaWindowsProcess 
currently always executes commands).

The workaround is to use EmptySoftwareProcess, which expects an 
SshMachineLocation, but with it configured to execute nothing (so it never 
notices that the SshMachineLocation is not ssh'able!)
