default=30,

help="""
Number of seconds to wait for agent's reply to a request.
Nova configures/performs certain administrative actions on a server with the
help of an agent that's installed on the server. The communication between
Nova and the agent is achieved via sharing messages, called records, over
xenstore, a shared storage across all the domains on a Xenserver host.
Operations performed by the agent on behalf of nova are: 'version',' key_init',
'password','resetnetwork','inject_file', and 'agentupdate'.
To perform one of the above operations, the xapi 'agent' plugin writes the
command and its associated parameters to a certain location known to the domain
and awaits response. On being notified of the message, the agent performs
appropriate actions on the server and writes the result back to xenstore. This
result is then read by the xapi 'agent' plugin to determine the success/failure
of the operation.
This config option determines how long the xapi 'agent' plugin shall wait to
read the response off of xenstore for a given request/command. If the agent on
the instance fails to write the result in this time period, the operation is
considered to have timed out.

Number of seconds to wait for agent't reply to version request.
This indicates the amount of time xapi 'agent' plugin waits for the agent to
respond to the 'version' request specifically. The generic timeout for agent
communication ``agent_timeout`` is ignored in this case.
During the build process the 'version' request is used to determine if the
agent is available/operational to perform other requests such as
'resetnetwork', 'password', 'key_init' and 'inject_file'. If the 'version' call
fails, the other configuration is skipped. So, this configuration option can
also be interpreted as time in which agent is expected to be fully operational.

incorrectly on the image, the use of agent is determined by this configuration
option.
