sdc-cn-agent is an RPC mechanism via which a client can interact with a compute node. It acts as an externally visible interface to subsystems within the server.

It is responsible for executing "tasks", scripts which break down some unit of work into a number of steps to be completed. This may range from creating a virtual machine to something as simple as creating or listing ZFS datasets.

Repository

Some notable parts of the repo:

node_modules/fw         This is a copy of smartos-live.git:src/fw
                        and should be kept in sync. It is used to
                        provide a node API to `fw.{update,del,add}`
                        for firewall data.

git clone git@github.com:TritonDataCenter/sdc-cn-agent.git
