CLOUDSTACK-6975: Prevent dnsmasq from starting on backup redundant RvRRebase of PR #1509 against the 4.7 branch as requested by @swill One LGTM from @ustcweizhou carried from previous PR. Previous PR will be closed. Description from PR #1509: CLOUDSTACK-6975 refers to service monitoring bringing up dnsmasq but this is no-longer accurate, as service monitoring is not active on the post-4.6 routers. These routers still suffer an essentially identical issue, however, because "dnsmasq needs to be restarted each time configure.py is called in order to avoid lease problems." As such, dnsmasq is still running on backup RvRs, causing the issues described in CLOUDSTACK-6975. This PR is based on a patch submitted by @ustcweizhou. The code now checks the redundant state of the router before restarting dnsmasq. RvR networks without this patch have dnsmasq running on both master and backup routers. RvR networks with this patch have dnsmasq running on only the master router. * pr/1514: CLOUDSTACK-6975: Prevent dnsmasq from starting on backup redundant RvR.

####################################################
Note there is a new systemvm build script based on
Veewee(Vagrant) under tools/appliance.
####################################################
1. The buildsystemvm.sh script builds a 32-bit system vm disk based on the Debian Squeeze distro. This system vm can boot on any hypervisor thanks to the pvops support in the kernel. It is fully automated
2. The files under config/ are the specific tweaks to the default Debian configuration that are required for CloudStack operation.
3. The variables at the top of the buildsystemvm.sh script can be customized:
IMAGENAME=systemvm # dont touch this
LOCATION=/var/lib/images/systemvm #
MOUNTPOINT=/mnt/$IMAGENAME/ # this is where the image is mounted on your host while the vm image is built
IMAGELOC=$LOCATION/$IMAGENAME.img
PASSWORD=password # password for the vm
APT_PROXY= #you can put in an APT cacher such as apt-cacher-ng
HOSTNAME=systemvm # dont touch this
SIZE=2000 # dont touch this for now
DEBIAN_MIRROR=ftp.us.debian.org/debian
MINIMIZE=true # if this is true, a lot of docs, fonts, locales and apt cache is wiped out
4. The systemvm includes the (non-free) Sun JRE. You can put in the standard debian jre-headless package instead but it pulls in X and bloats the image.
5. You need to be 'root' to run the buildsystemvm.sh script
6. The image is a raw image. You can run the convert.sh tool to produce images suitable for Citrix Xenserver, VMWare and KVM.
* Conversion to Citrix Xenserver VHD format requires the vhd-util tool. You can use the
-- checked in config/bin/vhd-util) OR
-- build the vhd-util tool yourself as follows:
a. The xen repository has a tool called vhd-util that compiles and runs on any linux system (http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-4.0-testing.hg?file/8e8dd38374e9/tools/blktap2/vhd/ or full Xen source at http://www.xen.org/products/xen_source.html).
b. Apply this patch: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/cgi-bin/mesg.cgi?a=xen-devel&i=006101cb22f6%242004dd40%24600e97c0%24%40zhuo%40cloudex.cn.
c. Build the vhd-util tool
cd tools/blktap2
make
sudo make install
* Conversion to ova (VMWare) requires the ovf tool, available from
http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/server/vsphere/automationtools/ovf
* Conversion to QCOW2 requires qemu-img
