Prasanna Santhanam commented on CLOUDSTACK-372:
-----------------------------------------------

I think this isn't something that IAAS orchestration software like CloudStack should do. There are many many tools out there that handle provisioning well -

cobbler,
crowbar,
razor (more recently),

Also bare-metal provisioning is partly done by CloudStack and likely will get more improvements there. We should address any fixes that we do to this as a part of that
