Description

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Usage of ikvm is documented (so we know whether it is still used or not)
  • AC2: ikvm specific code is marked for removal from os-autoinst if not used anymore

Suggestions

  • Lookup in git history who added that support and ask them if it's still needed
  • Lookup on o3 and osd if there is any "machine" using ikvm as backend -> okurz: not used on o3 nor osd as SQL select * from machines where backend ~ 'ikvm'; does not return any matches
  • Die in the backend with a "deprecated" message to see if someone complains. Allow that to be bypassed with a test or environment variable (lookup the approach we do already for backend::AMT or other cases)
