Description Mike McGrath 2009-04-16 19:19:31 UTC
It'd be nice to have a reboot button instead of a power off, refresh the screen a couple of times, power on.

Comment 1 Scott Seago 2009-05-21 18:51:59 UTC
Actually you can power off and back on without waiting for refresh, since the valid action list takes pending tasks into effect. So you can 'shutdown' and immediately 'start' the VM even though the shutdown is not yet complete.

Still it would probably be nice to add a 'reboot' task which would internally just run separate 'shutdown' and 'startup' libvirt tasks.
