The scope of the feature was cut down significantly. No customizations other than via vdsm.conf. We hope we'll get the original promises in 3.5:) The default 60 seconds delay time is for shutdown as well. The future customizations are to remove it. > > 2.

We'll grey it out for Linux clients then (or try to push the change to Linux versions as well, whichever can be done first) Thanks, michal > > 3.
