[For the record]

Juan,

Thanks to your hint, I eventually found it more convenient for me to use 
a SQL query to find out which VM was unsed for months :

SELECT
   vm_static.vm_name,
   vm_dynamic.status,
   vm_dynamic.vm_ip,
   vm_dynamic.vm_host,
   vm_dynamic.last_start_time,
   vm_dynamic.vm_guid,
   vm_dynamic.last_stop_time
FROM
   public.vm_dynamic,
   public.vm_static
WHERE
   vm_dynamic.vm_guid = vm_static.vm_guid AND
   vm_dynamic.status = 0
ORDER BY
   vm_dynamic.last_stop_time ASC;

Thank you.
