Hi,

I'm a newbie to Openstack and recently got started to look in to it. The task in hand is to look for feasible ways to manage/configure HyperV (2012 server) from a Linux host (SL 6.1). Earlier to the Openstack I was looking into "OpenWSMAN" (open source implementation for WSMAN specification by DTMF). The issue their was Openssh used by OpenWSMAN to establish connections to HyperV does not support "Kerberos" authentication and requires the server authentication to be lowered to "Basic".

Browsing through "nova-compute" code it seems the HyperV driver is using "WMI" python library; does anyone knows if this library suffers from any such deficiencies?

Thanks in advance.
