[ovirt-users] vm shutdown long delay is a problem for users of pools

[Paul]

Hi,

Shutting down VM's in the portal with the red downfacing arrow takes quite
some time (about 90 seconds). I read this is mainly due to a 60 second delay
in the ovirt-guest-agent. I got used to right-click and use "power off"
instead of "shutdown", which is fine.

 

My users make use of VM in a VM-pool. They get assigned a VM and after
console disconnect the VM shuts down (default recommended behavior). My
issue is that the users stays assigned to this VM for the full 90 seconds
and cannot do "power off". Suppose he disconnected by accident, he has to
wait 90 seconds until he is assigned to the pool again until he can connect
to another VM. 

 

My questions are:

-          Is it possible to decrease the time delay of a VM shutdown? 90
seconds is quite a lot, 10 seconds should be enough

-          Is it possible for normal users to use "power off"?

-          Is it possible to "unallocate" the user from a VM if it is
powering down? So he can allocate another VM

 

Kind regards,

 

Paul
