Description Gene Czarcinski 2009-07-13 15:28:16 UTC
Description of problem:

The current implementation has a popup to ask "are you sure" (yes/no) when you select doing a shutdown:force-off (virtual poweroff).

This is OK for something which occurs infrequently.  However, when this is used a lot, it becomes more than bothersome!! [think pain in the ...]

Ideally, there should be some global setting which can be set/reset instead of just a check-box on the dialog which, if un-checked, will result in the popup never occurring again.

Comment 1 Gene Czarcinski 2009-07-17 16:22:51 UTC
After thinking about this RFE, I believe that having the option on a per guest basis may be better.

Regardless, if the popup can be turned off, there should be a way to turn it back on without vi'ing an xml file.

Moving upstream, but personally I think the dialog makes sense and anyone who really needs to do this that much can just use 'virsh destroy'

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2009-11-18 21:48:47 UTC
Numerous people have asked for this, so I've implemented this upstream:

Closing as UPSTREAM.
