Description

Adds QEMU block-device support for disk images accessed over SSH. It helps virtual machines use remote storage through a secure shell connection when local disk images are not the right fit.

Install it as a QEMU storage component. Remote disks depend on network reliability and SSH credentials, so protect keys, verify hosts, and understand caching before running important guests.
