[jira] [Created] (VCL-572) Automatically install updates when an image is loaded

Automatically install updates when an image is loaded
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: VCL-572
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-572
             Project: VCL
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: vcld (backend)
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
            Reporter: Andy Kurth
             Fix For: 2.4


It would be useful if there was a way to automatically install certain OS updates/patches whenever an image is loaded.  This is more important now that major RDP vulnerabilities have been reported.  Updates that should be installed would be downloaded and saved under the tools directory on the management node.  When an image is loaded, vcld will scan the updates to determine which ones apply to the image.  The update files are then copied to the computer and installed.  The code will need to determine whether or not the update requires a reboot.
