   > @weizhouapache Does multiple kvm hosts in a cluster supports different 
authentication mechanism (few with passwords, and others with ssh key)? If so, 
is this info maintained in management server?
   
   @sureshanaparti yes, if `host_details` table has record with name=`password` 
for the host, the host supports password authentication (as well as ssh key 
authentication).
   if not, the host supports ssh key authentication only.
   
   I think the main issue for now is, password authentication does not work 
sometimes, for example by ssh protocol, incorrect ssh settings, wrong password, 
password is changed. it should not be a problem/risk to ssh from mgmt server to 
hosts by both options, as they all use internal IPs.
