ISMS and Cloud computing

"Does one need to get ISO/IEC 27001 to get ISO/IEC CD 27017? Is it possible to scope ISO/IEC 27001 to JUST the cloud environment? "

Why would you go for 27017? Are you a client or a provider (IaaS, PaaS or Saas)?
1) ISO 27017 isn't out yet (last CD stage). It has to be used as a complement to ISO 27002:2013 in Cloud environments, as ISO 27018 is for Privacy protection in the Cloud environment (Published last year).
2) You are certified against ISO 27001 not against anything else in informations security. One may use any ‘reference' (s)he wants in complement to Annex A (= ISO 27002:2013).

You may introduce the Cloud in your scope, as more and more IT companies are doing. As a client it’s an ‘outsourced service’; as a provider it’s part of your activities with possible outsourcing of elements of the cloud.
