You can access system VMs through the UI, in the Infrastructure tab. > You can also ssh in, using the following techniques. > To access a system VM directly over the network, use one of the following > techniques, depending on the hypervisor. > XenServer or KVM: > SSH in by using the link local IP address of the system VM. For example, in > the command below, substitute your own path to the private key used to log in > to the system VM and your own link local IP. > Run the following command on the XenServer or KVM host on which the system VM > is present: > # ssh -i <private-key-path> <link-local-ip> -p 3922 > Now you can run commands on the system VM. For example, to check the software > version: > # cat /etc/cloudstack-release > The output should be like the following: > Cloudstack Release 4.0 Mon Feb 6 15:10:04 PST 2013 > ESXi: > SSH in using the private IP address of the system VM.
