I learned how to ssh into the system VM for storage using this
domentaion for Accessing System VMs:
https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/latest/adminguide/systemvm.html

I was able to ssh into my system storage VM from the KVM hypervisor

Since I'm using hardcoded /etc/host and no homelab DNS server yet, I found
the network is fine, but the system VM doesn't know what server KVM1 is.  :\

root@s-2-VM:~# ping 192.168.1.201

I edited the hosts file for now and will work to get a DNS server solution
for the home lab soon.

I hope this is helpful to someone.
