Comment 1 Ales Zelinka 2008-10-07 07:19:46 UTC
Please consider including option "user" to the list of supported domain
config options (so that it doesn't get removed when configuration changes)

syntax:
user = "string"
semantics:
username/email of the owner/creator of domain. Used for authorization of operations on domains.

Comment 2 Daniel Berrangé 2008-10-07 13:38:26 UTC
I don't see any 'user' config option in either the RHEL-5 or latest upstream Xen config file handling ? Can you point to the Xen code which is defining this config parameter.

Comment 3 Ales Zelinka 2008-10-07 14:10:56 UTC
There is no such code. This option is recognized and used by our project only (that's why I call it _custom_ option). What I'd like to achieve is virt-manager ignoring this option (just like xm does) instead or removing.

Comment 4 Daniel Berrangé 2008-10-07 14:21:41 UTC
Closing for same reason as bug 465923. We cannot support use of random invented config parameters.
