# Goals:
# - Do not manage any host without tag elas_manage
# - Operate on one host per execution, exitting after each change
# - Have at least one host up without vm's to hold new VM's
# - Shutdown/suspend hosts without vm's until there's only one left
# - If a host has been put on maintenance and has no tag, it will not be activated by the script
# - Any active host must have no tags on it (that would mean user-enabled, and should have the tag removed)


# tags behaviour
# elas_manage: manage this host by using the elastic management script (EMS)
# elas_maint : this host has been put on maintenance by the EMS
