Re: [Users] so, what do you want next in oVirt?

Hi, I would like to see a more advanced type of Power-Saving Cluster policy, where an empty Host gets put into a sleep-mode, so that it draws as little power as possible and can be awoken by engine when VM's starts to use more resources. A typical scenario would be that all VM's are spread evenly over Hosts during day-time, when customers are actively using their VM's. But then during off-hours, VM's gets clumped up into maybe one or two Hosts, and the other Hosts can be put to sleep to save energy, and then woken up in the morning again.
