Hi Dave, and welcome to the list.

Just looked at your ticket and all looks good to me.

I've also voted for it as I've had a couple of other users ask for the same 
functionality so well done for logging it.

Kind Regards

Subject: Feature requests and a feature request: userid field in the 
vm_instance table

Hi all,

Is this mailing list the right place to raise feature requests? If so, I have a 
small one.

I think it would be handy if the userid of the user that created a VM was 
recorded in the database in the vm_instance table. Currently, the only way I 
know of to find the user that deployed a VM is by checking the logs. There's an 
owner field in the vm_instance table but this seems to be the account ID of the 
account the user belongs to.

By being able to find the user that deployed a VM, it makes VM cleanups much 
easier since you know who to contact for each VM. A similar thing in the other 
tables for the other resources would be useful too when trying to cleanup 
networks and volumes, etc. Also, if this change went ahead, then the API and 
GUI could be changed also to show the user details for the VM when listing the 
VM's details.

Thanks,

Dave
