/* Virtual Machines */
== Virtual Machines ==
Naming of VM states (the second state is only needed for special cases), valid for VMs:
* Stopped
* Stopped, streaming [5.1 %] (technically paused)
* Stopped, backing up
* Stopped, migrating (same state for the vm being migrated to a node and away from a node)
* Starting (technically changing state from stopped to running)
* Starting, streaming [5.1 %] (technically changing state from paused to running)
* Paused, backing up (technically migrating to file)
* Paused, migrating (the vm is being migrated to this node)
* Running
* Running, backing up (technically merging, retaining, streaming)
* Running, streaming [5.1 %]
* Running, migrating (the vm is being migrated away from this node)
* Shutting down
* Powering off
* Deleting
 
Possible future states:
* Crashed (when vm should be running, but there isn't a QEMU process around)
* Frozen or Non responding (requires QEMU guest agent or a watch dog)
 
Future editing:
* Certain values like disk, cpu and memory will be able to be changed, even if the vm is running.
