Hi In logs we see all kind variations how an object is printed to the users. E.g. for VMs we have seen, the DB ID, UUID, internal name, name etc. in different debug log messages. And this makes debugging harder than it should.
I wondered, why don't we just use the "toString()" in VO classes. E.g in this PR https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1252/files#diff-ab243638abf88707693d464b3b1836feR1503 We see a: s_logger.debug("Host is in PrepareForMaintenance state - Stop VM operation on the VM id: " + vm.getId() + " is not allowed"); With a toString in the VO class of the VM this would turn into s_logger.debug("Host is in PrepareForMaintenance state - Stop VM operation on the VM: " + vm + " is not allowed"); Did I miss anything?
