[RFC] Moving some features of Host tab to Ginger
Hi, This is something that has been discussed offline and I would like to share it with everyone. At this moment, Kimchi has host related features that I believe would be a better fit in Ginger, which is a plug-in dedicated to host management. They are in the "Host" tab of Kimchi. These features are: - host shutdown - host reboot - debug reports - software updates - repositories Moving them to Ginger would be beneficial to both Ginger and Kimchi in my opinion. Ginger will have more features to further control and setup the host, Kimchi will be relieved of maintaining them, being able to focus only on its primary goal, virtualization management. When I say "moving" I mean not only the features but all the related bugs and backlog entries too. Thoughts?
+1 Something that you did not described but it’s also present in the Host tab is the Host Information (OS, memory amount, CPU numbers, etc). Are you planning to move this feature also? — Paulo Ricardo Paz Vital "I like the impossible, because there is less competition" - Walt Disney

Host information is something that could be moved (or even replicated) as well

I agree that most features of the tab "Host" should be moved away from Kimchi, as I don't think they belong to a virtualization management tool. However, the sections "Basic Information" and "System Statistics" could remain on Kimchi as they're useful data to those managing virtual machines. Replicating data on both Kimchi and Ginger doesn't look like a good solution though. On Tue, May 5, 2015 at 10:04 AM Daniel Henrique Barboza < dhbarboza82@gmail.com> wrote:

I suggest that we keep them at Kimchi and implement them in Ginger if necessary/required
