> In the "Working with System VMs" section of the Admin Guide, there is no
> "Accessing System VMs" section. There should be one, similar to the
> "Accessing VMs" section in the earlier "Working with Virtual Machines"
> section. You can access system VMs through the UI, in the Infrastructure tab.
> You can also ssh in, using the following techniques.
> To access a system VM directly over the network, use one of the following
> techniques, depending on the hypervisor.
> XenServer or KVM:
> SSH in by using the link local IP address of the system VM. For example, in
> the command below, substitute your own path to the private key used to log in
> to the system VM and your own link local IP.
> Run the following command on the XenServer or KVM host on which the system VM
> is present:
> # ssh -i <private-key-path> <link-local-ip> -p 3922
> Now you can run commands on the system VM. For example, to check the software
> version:
> # cat /etc/cloudstack-release
> The output should be like the following:
> Cloudstack Release 4.0 Mon Feb 6 15:10:04 PST 2013
> ESXi:
> SSH in using the private IP address of the system VM. For example, in the
> command below, substitute your own path to the private key used to log in to
> the system VM and your own private IP.
> Run the following command on the Management Server:
> # ssh -i <private-key-path> <private-ip> -p 3922
> Now you can run commands on the system VM. For example, to check the software
> version:
> # cat /etc/cloudstack-release
> The output should be like the following:
> Cloudstack Release 4.0 Mon Feb 6 15:10:04 PST 2013
