Hi,

We have had some verbal discussion about the restore state files and we came to the conclusion that it might be a good idea, if we could have the configuration we're saving pickled in the restore files within the Domain XML itself.

The point is, that we're currently having kind of a potential problem (can be found in vm.py all over the place in comments) that the recover file and the actual configuration of the VM in the Domain XML might differ.

The idea is that we could utilize the metatag introduced in before libvirt 0.10 to store our current configuration embedded in the DomainXML in libvirt. When we're recovering we can get the configuration from there. Additionally we would be able to update the domain xml and the current configuration at the same time and we'd have a more consistent state.

This is just an idea and I am curious what you guys are thinking about it.

Let me know, thanks
