Please consider including option "last_started" into the list of supported domain config options (so that it doesn't get removed when configuration changes) syntax: last_started = "date" ; date is in format specified by rfc 3339, recognized by date from coreutils package (date --rfc-3339=seconds) semantics: date and time when the domain was last started. Used for deciding which domain should be stopped to save resources (in environment where domain are not meant to run forever and their owners forget to stop them manually after they're done with them)
I don't see any 'last_started' 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.
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.
Closing for same reason as bug 465923. We cannot support use of random invented config parameters.
