work fine when the nodes are behaving themselves. 1) geni_update_users: Takes a slice credential and a keys argument. Can only be invoked when the sliver is in the started/geni_ready state. Moves the slice to the geni_updating_users state until all of the nodes have completed the update, at which time the sliver moves back to started/geni_ready. 2) geni_updating_users_cancel: We can assume that some nodes will be whacky and will not perform the update when told to. This cancels the update and moves the sliver back to started/geni_ready. A couple of notes: * The current emulab node update time is about three minutes; the sliver is in this new state for that time and cannot be restarted or stopped. It can of course be deleted. * Should we allow restart while in the updating phase? We could, but then I need more bookkeeping. * Some nodes might not be running the watch dog, or might not even be an emulab image, so the operation will never end, not until canceled. I could add a timeout, but that will require a monitor or adding DB state to store the start time.
