I was thinking of having HostUpdatesManager in CloudStack core which will enumerate the adapters of different hypervisors and those adapters will be implemented in the plugin framework. Initially we have the implementation for XenServisor hypervisor. In the similar manner, adapters for other hypervisors can also be implemented. The Xenserver adapter will list the hosts that are being managed by the caller management server and check the updates for the same. This is to handle clustered scenario. I'll update the document with this information.
Please let me know your comments on this.
