Prasanna Santhanam commented on CLOUDSTACK-2534:
------------------------------------------------
Both the keys are the same private key. However one of them is public readable.
While the one in /var will allow you to login to vmware hosts because of ssh
security, the one under /usr still needs to be made secure enough. It shouldn't
be world readable.
> Packaging puts SSH private keys as public readable on management server
