If I can have an suggestion, we discus audit log and for our siem it 
would be great format like:

user: user1 action: powered off vm: VM1.test.com host: ovirt.test.com

user: user1 action: logged in

user: user1 action: initiated console session VM: VM5.test.com

user: user1 action: changed network interface detail: secure_vlan to 
insecure_vlan on vnic1 vm: testserver.test.com
