autodiscovery questions

[Vreman, Peter]

I want to add an autodiscovery feature. I have some questions how to start:

- What kind of initrd shall be used?
  o Use livecd-tools to build the initrd+kernel from Fedora/RHEL/CentOS?
    * Minimum size is 150MB
    * Easy to maintain and regenerate
  o Create a small busy-box initrd+kernel
    * Minimum size is 20MB
    * Harder to understand
    * Requires more indepth linux knowledge
- Which API to use?
  o HTTP services?
  o XMLRPC read/write API? (listens currently only on localhost)
- Instead of creating something new extend koan with a new --discover function?


Regards,
Peter
