Comment (by anarcat):

 i wrote a simple reboot prototype that does just that, but can also be
 used as a `reboot-guest` replacement:

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/admin/tsa-misc.git/tree/ganeti-reboot-
 cluster-fabric-prototype

 it's mostly a test to see how Fabric works and is not intended to be a
 replacement for all tools just yet.

 but i find the results promising: it's much nicer to work in python with
 that stuff: errors are (mostly) well defined and it's easy to modularize
 things. for example, i originally wrote the thing to migrate fsn-node-01
 (and that worked) but then i could extend it to also reboot arbitrary node
 (and i rebooted gayi).
