Overview

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

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