you have two options for this:
1. show vmpool vmpool_name
2. list vmpools --show-all
yes, but they returns all the properties of an object. I would prefer
to have an option that gives only the value of the property/properties
I'm interested in
something like
show vmpool vmpool_name --props=prop1[,prop2,...,propN]
eg
show vmpool vmpool_name --props=size

this one of the features i have in my list.
i also have pipe support in my list, when it will be available,
you will be able to redirect shell output directly to grep.
Ok, fine to have them.
So in ovirt-shell command, when you type "help" and you get
"
In addition to the basic command form, the following functionality is
available:
...
* The output of any command can be piped to a shell command with
the '|' character.
"
Actually it is not implemented yet, correct?
Because I tried some options but it seems none of them worked...
BTW: getting results seems quite slow in my opinion. Does it depend on
ovirt-shell itself or something I can tune in PotgreSQL RDBMS
parameters perhaps?
