There was a bz associated with that commit - that'll need to be
addressed in some manner...
Well, the initial assesment of that BZ was wrong. This should have been
fixed in virt manager at that point.
While I understand your point here, the configuration didn't work
- that
is it couldn't be started anyway so there could not be a domain running
with that configuration and thus it wouldn't disappear on a subsequent
reload, hence why checking the config and rejecting "earlier" seemed
It does not kill any running domain, that's right. Defined domains still
vanish after that commit if they were defined before. That is still
unwanted.
proper even though we hadn't rejected such a config when the
"mode='host'" was first implemented.
Only when introducing a feature you are allowed to do a check that
rejects parsing XML, afterwards, no such thins should be added.
Commit 'c79ebf53b' is a followup of sorts to commit '33188c9f'...
'33188c9f' is okay. Startup time checks can be added.
For me it's a NACK, but someone else may feel differently
I still insist on reverting the code. This should be fixed in virt
manager as in libvirt it creates a vanishing VM problem.
