Just out of curiosity: what might those single node cases be, outside
implementing an oVirt like solution? I think understanding those
better is also critical input to the API design.
I would personally really like to see a server distro that installs
virtual appliances instead of packages. With that I could have a server
with a DHCP\httpd\mail server\webdav\IPA appliances running on the host
completely separate using qemu or even lxc. Having a BL and UI around
that would be very convenient for small setups and home servers. VDSM
would be handy for storage, network and policy configuration as well as
tracking the appliances stats.
