Alex Heneveld commented on CLOUDSTACK-1026:
-------------------------------------------
A bit of context: in discussions on the mailing list around CLOUDSTACK-576
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-576) it was agreed that the
ability to customise a VM instance with files and commands should be
implemented as a separate feature. This issue tracks that feature.

> To enable more sophisticated VM deployments and blueprint (#576) deployments,
> cloudstack developers and system administrators need a mechanism to perform
> additional guest customisation. This would include:
> * installing files to an instance
> * executing commands on a VM post-boot
> Initially this would be from a Java API, then likely offering a REST API and
> GUI controls.
