"""Configuration management for Ganeti

This module provides the interface to the Ganeti cluster configuration.

The configuration data is stored on every node but is updated on the master
only. After each update, the master distributes the data to the other nodes.

Currently, the data storage format is JSON. YAML was slow and consuming too
much memory.
