That's a nice theory you've got there... :) I'd think a little script management would go a long way until you have _every_ possible use case in the system. :) As a developer I find at some point I always get talked into adding that extra bit of flexibility even though no user should ever need it. They always find something I never thought of. btw, do I put feature requests in bugzilla, or is there some other place? Thanks for all of the help.

that seems silly. Seems like the kinda thing that would be a nice feature to have in the webadmin stuff. esp if you have 100's of hosts. oh well, thanks for the help.
you're not supposed to need a hook under normal circumstances, when the functionality is useful enough it should be built into vdsm natively...well, that's in progress for this one for 3.4.1:)
Thanks, michal

And just to verify... All hooking scripts have to be placed on each host by hand?
Yes

It's a bit more complicated than that....there's no XML stored in the backend. You'd be better off applying the patch over and compile yourself:) The supported way of how to amend the libvirt XML is via VDSM hooks. You need to intercept the created XML and add whatever is needed, see http://www.ovirt.org/VDSM-Hooks, some of the examples can be used as a base for what you're trying to do...
Yup, before_vm_start before_vm_migrate should allow you to do what you want.
Thanks, michal
