Besides <cpu> setting, what types of features do you see tweaking for 'Full host' vs 'easily' vs 'normal'? If the main differentiator is 'how migratable is this VM' I don't like the idea of putting that into the New VM wizard, since I think 99% of virt-manager users don't care about that, and migration is a difficult concept with a lot of VM config caveats, plus it usually requires host configuration outside of virt-manager to get working so it's unlikely to be something that 'just works'. However I'm more open to a kind of migration vs performance setting in the Preferences dialog that determines the default New VM setup. But to discuss that we should start with a list of features you see enabling/disabling Thanks, Cole _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
