Host-HA offers investigation, fencing and recovery mechanisms for host that for
any reason are malfunctioning. It uses Activity and Health checks to determine
current host state based on which it may degrade a host or try to recover it. On
failing to recover it, it may try to fence the host.
The core feature is implemented in a hypervisor agnostic way, with two separate
implementations of the driver/provider for Simulator and KVM hypervisors. The
framework also allows for implementation of other hypervisor specific provider
implementation in future.
The Host-HA provider implementation for KVM hypervisor uses the out-of-band
management sub-system to issue IPMI calls to reset (recover) or poweroff (fence)
a host.
The Host-HA provider implementation for Simulator provides a means of testing
and validating the core framework implementation.

CLOUDSTACK-8762: Check to confirm disk activity before starting a VMImplements a VM volume/disk file activity checker that checks if QCOW2 file
has been changed before starting the VM. This is useful as a pessimistic
approach to save VMs that were running on faulty hosts that CloudStack could
try to launch on other hosts while the host was not cleanly fenced. This is
optional and available only if you enable the settings in agent.properties
file, on per-host basis.

When dumping XML use appropriate flags:
1, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE (dump security sensitive information too)
8, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE (dump XML suitable for migration)

This fixes CVE 2015-3252: VNC password lost during VM migration across KVM
hosts. The issue is also seen when a VM is rebooted.

KVM hosts which are actuall up, but if their agents are shutdown should be put
in disconnected state. This would avoid getting the VMs HA'd and other commands
such as deploying a VM will exclude that host and save us from errors.
The improvement is that, we first try to contact the KVM host itself. If it fails
we assume that it's disconnected, and then ask its KVM neighbours if they can
check its status. If all of the KVM neighbours tell us that it's Down and we're
unable to reach the KVM host, then the host is possibly down. In case any of the
KVM neighbours tell us that it's Up but we're unable to reach the KVM host then
we can be sure that the agent is offline but the host is running.

KVMStoragePoolManager is a singleton in practice, any plugin
or extension of LibvirtComputingResource will need to act on
the specific instance of KVMStoragePoolManager that LibvirtComputingResource
has initialized. Therefore, expose this variable for those who
wish to call storage commands from plugins or extensions.
