Daan Hoogland commented on CLOUDSTACK-450:
------------------------------------------
[~widodh] is this still valid (since the 4.6 ssvm rewrite)?
> 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
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Components: Management Server
> Affects Versions: pre-4.0.0, 4.0.0, 4.1.0, 4.2.0
> Reporter: Wido den Hollander
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> 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.
