Then there is XenAPI in Xen >= 3.1.0. We don't currently use XenAPI at all, and I'm not up2date on its level of functionality, but in the original scope it was intended to provide full event notification capabilities for VMs. If the XenAPI event stuff was ever implemented, then perhaps we should make use of that, and say older non-XenAPI versions only get a limited sub-set of our events ?
ugh. I tried using xenapi about 8 months ago... Back then - it was messy, and underdocumented, IMO - and a large reason why started to look at libvirt in the first place. It seemed...shoe-horned into an existing scheme, with a new API. There was some effort a little while back to shore this up...but I don't know where, or if that really went anywhere. I think it would be a mistake to integrate that project into this one.
