    Add new config_url os parameter · 3707aa73
    Nikos Skalkotos authored
    This url points to a json file that contains the value for other
    OS parameters. Using this file we can pass parameters to snf-image
    without writting them in Ganeti's config.data. This is
    useful, for 2 reasons:
    * Privacy: We don't want the password to appear in the Ganeti config
    * Speed: Some parameters like IMG_PERSONALITY can be quite large (a few
    KB) and since ganeti shares the instance configuration among different
    nodes, the overall system will start getting slower if many instances
    with IMG_PERSONALITY exist.
