Host Agent
Live Notes may be taken for this topic at: http://etherpad.openstack.org/HostAgent
Requirements
should be a nice unix daemon
- should support syslog
- failure should not affect guest instances
Considerations
- Heavy I/O operations should be executed with Processing Pools (or some mechanism that limits concurrent operations)
Upgrades to HostAgent code (apt-get update) without breaking current long running tasks (spawning of instances)
HostAgent should be stateless, with persistent state in the datastore
Support GuestAgent ...
