| Hi Giuseppe,
|
| Thanks for the review. I am aware of the need to add conversion of units in
| the engine.
| As for the mandatory fields - we decided to make all 6 fields mandatory to
| the engine users (we know libvirt does not enforce this).
| Leaving some fields empty may cause some ambiguity since libvirt is filling
| the remaining fields by it self.
| for example: if libvirt implementation will change in future releases, the
| user may get different peak and burst values without even knowing about it.
I see, in this case your choice makes perfect sense, Thanks for sharing.
Giuseppe
