I agree :) I believe it's more of a 'legacy' issue.
now i have not found which table is HOST.
The view VDS should provide most details of a HOST. The underlying tables are VDS_STATIC, VDS_DYNAMIC and VDS_STATISTICS Once you get that VDS is HOST, VDS_GROUP suddenly starts making sense :)
i appreciate your hard work,but i hope my suggest is meaningful.
thanks

I agree :) I believe it's more of a 'legacy' issue.
that's even before the legacy :) I'm sure everyone will be happy for patches fixing table and business entity names to match what they are called today... i'd start from vds-->host as an experiment and an obvious change. for vds_group (cluster), and storage_pool (also [ab]used as data_center) it's a bit more tricky, as the right change is probably more than just a naming change, but let's see someone tackling vds/host first :)
now i have not found which table is HOST.
