AuditLog gets recycled after 30 days. the reason i stopped my VM may still be relevant. I would not make fields complex/composite. they need to be easily useable via the CLI for example.
I think we need multiple comments, so we need to think about the RESTful api anyhow. I guess that next feature will be a reason for 'wipe after stop'/any other BE that needs reasoning.
What about a new DB table (maybe called Annotations) that takes a business entity type, UUID, action type, timestamp, and reason string. Then the shutdown reason could be entered as a new row in the DB. It can be kept as long as we want it and views can be adjusted to make these fields searchable.
I forgot to mention that this idea would make it simple to annotate the reason for moving a host into maintenance mode as well (or any other state change annotations we would want to make in the future). -- Adam Litke
