<title>Resetting SSH Keys to Access VMs</title>
<para>Use the resetSSHKeyForVirtualMachine API to set or reset the SSH keypair assigned to a
virtual machine. With the addition of this feature, a lost or compromised SSH keypair can be
changed, and the user can access the VM by using the new keypair. Just create or register a new
keypair, then call resetSSHKeyForVirtualMachine.</para>
