Comments:

1. Requires preparation of the environment (Hosts with KVM) before it can be used. VM images will have to be manually copied to each Host before starting.
2. None.
3. OpenStack Folsom only.
4. The deployed daemon is part of CBTOOL's code, and works as an "endpoint" for the requests sent by CBTOOL. The deployment means that during cloud attachment, CBTOOL will ssh into the VM "webservice" (part of a normal SCP installation) and copy (and execute) the Ruby daemon originally located on (~/cbtool/scripts/common/scp2_python_proxy.rb).
5. Simulated cloud just creates concrete objects (e.g., Hosts and VMs) and abstract objects (e.g., Virtual Applications) on the Object Store only. Since the each operation takes only 1 second, it is a good way to test your experiment plan before running it on an actual cloud. In addition to that, this "cloud" is heavily used for debugging/development.
