Preventing VM's from starting on specific Hosts

Hello, We've added two new hosts to our Ovirt 3.5.0.1 installation and want to restrict which VM's can start on it - specifically we do not any VM's to be able to auto select these two hosts. How do I prevent VM's from starting on these two HV's without specifically tying every VM to a host?

This is a rather old release and we encourage everyone to upgrade. Specifically, have you looked at affinity labels in recent versions of oVirt? Y.

Hi,
This is a rather old release and we encourage everyone to upgrade. Specifically, have you looked at affinity labels in recent versions of oVirt?
Labels only support presence check (a host with label can host labelled VMs). We currently do not have rules for the absence of label (a VM with no label can still run on a labelled host). This is not a hard RFE to do for Affinity groups, but we would need proper request for it in bugzilla. The current implementation expects a custom label / affinity group management service that maintains rules like this over REST.
