In private cloud datacenters, Abiquo supports guest setup with cloud init or hypervisor tools. In public cloud providers, Abiquo supports cloud init, and in AWS it also supports provider setup tools. Guest setup runs the first time you deploy a VM. The hypervisor tools guest setup also runs when you add a NIC. If the guest setup is not successful, the VM deploy or reconfigure will fail and roll back.
