Probably makes sense, that's your call ;)

From a quick look at the documentation
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.3-Beta/html/Developer_Guide/chap-Virtual_Machine_Pools.html
it should not be too hard to add support for it (though
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1034710 is missing in the doc).
I think what is needed is to derive an OvirtVmPool class from
OvirtResource which would parse the few extra attributes in the vm pool
(size, prestarted_vms), and which would expose the 'allocatevm' action.
Then OvirtApi would gain a method to get an OvirtCollection wrapping
the 'vmpools' collection.
Do you think you can provide a patch for this?

Christophe
