[Hawkular-dev] Host agent ?

[Thomas Heute]

With embedded agents, we lost few main features:
    - Ability to discover servers that are off or not (yet) instrumented
    - Ability to start servers remotely
    - Ability to report DOWN availability (other than by lack of UP)

Should we reintroduce a small (optional ?) host agent ?

The agent would only fulfill those tasks (+ embedded agent installer) and
redirect all other tasks to the embedded agents.

We can address a limited set of platforms (Linux only) to start with, and
maybe use environment specific features if those exists (Like RHEV-M host
agent if appropriate)

WDYT ?
