>          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.
