I understand that we're all familiar with virtualization and its benefits. However, in the Real World, those of us who run clouds often need to work with physical devices. I've proposed a blueprint and spec for a /hosts admin API resource that would return information on physical hosts. However, I don't believe that there's any way for us to actually identify a specific server (I'm actually hoping I'm mistaken about this, because that would make my life easier).
So, to get information about a specific host, you'd use /host/{id} — but what
should go in the {id} slot?
We'd also like to include this data elsewhere; for example, in error messages,
it might help to know the physical device on which a server is created.
