Hmm, online.net images aren't standard ones, so not sure if we can
upload ours and get those running there.
At the moment, those nodes have fedora-21-based images, but modified
to suit the architecture : different kernel, also using nbd devices
accross the network (nothing "local")
OTOH, I guess we can just use those ones, as plague-{server,client}
nodes there. (keep in mind that only one node has a public IP, while
the remaining ones have 10.x.x.x, but reachable from node1)

Sound like a plan
