LocalNfsSecondaryStorageResource vs NfsSecondaryStorageResource

To save me a bit of time, could someone explain the use case for LocalNfsSecondaryStorage?

Seems to be used in engine/storage/src/org/apache/cloudstack/storage/LocalHostEndpoint.java, but I've no idea why.

Any comments most welcome,


DL

It runs in the context (same java vm) as the MS.

Used in S3/Swift as secondary storage, when we add S3 image store, we need
to automatically download system vm template to these image stores, which
are done at MS host since ssvm is not up yet at that point.
