[jira] [Created] (CLOUDSTACK-7882) SSH Keypair Creation/Selection in UI

Logan B created CLOUDSTACK-7882:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: SSH Keypair Creation/Selection in UI
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-7882
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-7882
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: UI
    Affects Versions: 4.4.0
         Environment: CloudStack 4.4.0 w/ KVM Hypervisor on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
            Reporter: Logan B
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 4.5.0, 4.6.0


Currently the API allows for creating SSH keypairs, and specifying keypairs to use when deploying a VM (if the correct script is installed in the template).

I would suggest adding a section in the UI (perhaps as a drop down option in the instances menu) to create SSH keypairs.  I would then suggest adding an option in the Instance Wizard to select a keypair to inject into the instance upon creation.

It may also be worth adding a button to the instance menu to inject a new keypair upon reboot (like we have for password resets now).  This could be enabled/disabled with a template flag (e.g., "SSH Key Enabled," like the "Password Enabled" flag we have now)
