   > Perhaps useful for someone using VMware, where there is a separate system 
to manage VMs independently. I don't know that a test via KVM is going to 
really exercise it in the same way the VMware integration does.
   > 
   > Worst case, we see an event for VMware users indicating the VM was removed 
from its host out of band, but we aren't making a change to how the VM state is 
handled and synced up for these kinds of migrations.
   
   A scenario we have seen (which is purely a billing issue but still) Is that 
a VM was at a certain moment powered off and hence absent in reports from both 
hosts, while migration was still going on. This led to billing issues as those 
are a bit fragile. it relies a bit too much on a proper order of events and 
matching on/off create/delete etc combinations of events. What I am missing in 
this PR is the start event (also for OOB).
   
   We will have to test this and I think you are right this will probably only 
be an issue on vmware (not sure about xen). 
   
   @borisstoyanov (@vladimirpetrov) I think we need to give an extra eye to 
testing this.
   
   > 1. The fix to this is probably to properly detect the migrating scenario 
and change the VM state to `Migrating`, but outside of the scope of this PR.
   
   agreed
