You can use the DWH API to check these things. The status is sampled and stored for most entities every 1 minute by default (and can be set to less than that). Yaniv ----- Original Message -----

Hi,
we got the following problem:
we create / start / stop hole vms /data centers / storage etc (basically: everything ovirt can handle via REST-API)
But if you want to know e.g. the status of a vm (or anything) you need to constantly poll the API.
This is not what we desire to do, as it does not scale very well (e.g. polling 100 vms).
Is there a standardized way of pushing information from the engine?
