BOSH Shadow CPI Release

This BOSH Release provides a shadow CPI to be deployed by a BOSH Director.

A shadow CPI is the local view of a remote CPI, that actually is located on another distant host.

A CPI is usually just an executable binary. The shadow CPI uses an SSH connection to transmit requests to the actual distant CPI and output responses back to the caller.

This was designed in order to allow BOSH to control a distant warden_cpi that has the requirement to reside on the exact same host as the Garden-runC backend it is using.

How to test

When the shadow-cpi job is properly configured and deployed on a BOSH- managed node, then this call should return something:

/var/vcap/jobs/shadow-cpi/bin/cpi <<< '{ "method": "info", "arguments": [], "context": { "director_uuid": "39129ed5-ffb7-4eb9-9b6e-3ec49205e57c" } }'; echo

You should obtain something like this:

{"result":{"stemcell_formats":["warden-tar","general-tar"]},"error":null,"log":""}
