      Goal

      The qemu-guest-agent offers guest-file-write and guest-file-read commands that could be used to support this functionality, but they are not currently enabled by default.

      To implement this, we would need to:

      • Design a secure KubeVirt-level API to expose these guest agent commands at the Kubernetes level.
      • Collaborate with the platform virt team.
      • Consider the needs of the OADP team.

      User Stories

      • High-Level goal-based user story, with context.
        "As a <VM owner/cluster administrator>, I want <to Achieve Some Goal>, so that <Some Reason/Context>."
      • another user story

      Non-Requirements

      • List of things not included in this epic, to alleviate any doubt raised during the grooming process.

      Notes

      • No code merge required (maybe a VEP)
