Subject: [Engine-devel] Guest Reboot
Hi, engine-devel
Customers request the ability to reboot a VM with a single click so I started
designing the overall architecture and planing out the required changes to
the respective components.
You can find the wiki page for the initial draft at [1] and I would like to
ask you for your input on my general design and potential issues that could
arise in some corner cases.
Please feel free to respond to this thread or add to the Issues section of
[1].
Thanks in advance for your opinions :-)
Martin

As i understand it, reboot will do shutdown and initiate a run-command in order to send
any updated parameters,
if this is correct, why vdsm and GA need to know its a reboot? guest is shutting down,
no?
it would be better to add some info on stateless issue: when stateless vm goes down, its
state is cleared,
so need to decide if reboot to stateless means also start with new state or no.
similar is vm from pool: when vm from automatic pool goes down, it "returns" to
the pool, and not belong to a specific user anymore,
also here the state is cleared, so again need to understand the correct behaviour
