How easy is QMF to consume from a software development perspective? Would it be easy for someone to write a virsh-like tool against a QMF-based vdsm API? Would such a tool be able to run on multiple Linux distributions?
it is supposed to have a cli console. cc'ing carl and Ted for more details.
I'm not sure how hard it is technically. But for ISV's, I can tell you that almost nobody has experience with it.
But, is this intended to be a public API though?
yes, for VDSM. but if we go with ovirt-lite for single node, they will get exactly the same REST API as the full engine has. otherwise they will get a "similar" API, which meand double coding/testing/etc. btw, i think QMF has a REST bridge, but still it will be a different api than going the engine-lite approach.
