Hi list,

When a user powers down a VM from within the VM operating system (poweroff), a 
"moved from 'Up' --> 'Down'" message is written to engine.log, and a EVENT_ID: 
VM_DOWN is created

message: User shut down from within the guest

When a user starts a VM from the webadmin, a "moved from 'WaitForLaunch' --> 
'PoweringUp'" and "'PoweringUp' --> 'Up'" is written to engine.log, and the 
events EVENT_ID: USER_STARTED_VM and EVENT_ID: USER_RUN_VM is created.

However when a user reboots a VM from within the VM operating system, the 
messages "moved from 'Up' --> 'RebootInProgress'" and "moved from 
'RebootInProgress' --> 'Up'" is written to the engine.log, but no EVENT_ID is 
generated. --

So systems like CloudForms/ManageIQ which reads the manager event log via the 
manager REST API is not notified when a VM is rebooted, and is therefore unable 
to perform any EmsEvent when the VM reboots. 

Why is there no EVENT_ID generated when a VM reboots? Is it possible to enable 
EVENT_ID's to be created for VM reboot events?

Siggi
