Description Fabian Deutsch 2015-11-10 07:46:23 UTC

Description of problem:
Currently I need to poll with ovirt-shell to see when the status of a host changes.
It would be nice if I the ovirt-shell could wait for specific events (like virsh event)

Example:
add host …
event status-change
add vm …

Closing for the time being. (I'm pretty sure I closed a similar RFE from QE as well recently though - perhaps it was via REST, but some idea).
