This is one that was created in 2009 and got bumped all the way from
the 2.2 release. The backend code has supported this feature since
2010. This would be pretty useful. How much time would it take to
implement this?

The easy part is adding a checkbox for reservations that says not to do user
login checks. The hard part is determining who sees the checkbox (i.e.
permissions). How do we determine who gets to see this functionality? Is it
a global permission? Is it something that is image specific? Is it image
specific but also tied to a user permission?

> enable checkuser flag for per reservation instead of image only

> Key: VCL-178
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-178
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: database, vcld (backend), web gui (frontend)
> Reporter: Aaron Peeler
> Fix For: 2.4
>
>
> Occasionally a specific user will need the ability to have checkuser flag
> disable so the reservation is not reclaimed if the user disconnects. This
> would apply to a sysadmin or a researcher versus a 1st yr student.
> In addition to the image profile, add checkuser flag to the reservation table
> so this can be enabled on a per user/reservation basis in addition to the
> image profile.
> This would be for sysadmins, higher level users and user groups, such as the
> boss, etc. Set this flag based a per-user and/or on a user group attribute
> setting.
