[~jbellis] No, it should not, it is up to the providers to provide a redundant endpoint. This is the equivalent of https://ec2.amazonaws.com in the AWS world.

> The attached patch adds a new seed provider which queries a cloudstack API endpoint for instances having a specific tag.
> The tag key and value can be controlled in the configuration file and                                                                                 
> will default to 'cassandra_seed' and 'default'.                                                                                                       
> The Cloudstack endpoint is configured by three parameters in the                                                                                      
> configuration file: 'cloudstack_api_endpoint', 'cloudstack_api_key' and                                                                               
> 'cloudstack_api_secret'                                                                                                                               
> By default, CloudstackSeedProvider fetchs the ipaddress of the first                                                                                  
> interface, if another index should be used, the nic_index parameter will hold it.
> A typical configuration file would thus have:
> {code:yaml}
> seed_provider:
>     - class_name: org.apache.cassandra.locator.CloudstackSeedProvider
>       parameters:
>           - cloudstack_api_endpoint: "https://some.cloudstack.host"
>             cloudstack_api_key: "XXXXX"
>             cloudstack_api_secret: "XXXXX"
>             tag_value: "my_cluster_name"
> {code}
> This introduces no new dependency and together with CASSANDRA-7147 gives an easy way of getting started on cloudstack platforms
