Description
Allow update action for VMs.
An example use case is the following:
- VM boots and contacts a server to generate a password
- The server writes the generated password to context and returns it to the VM
- Users can see the password from Sunstone or onevm, by looking at the CONTEXT var
Currently, it is impossible for the server to update the CONTEXT or the VM template
