VM folders


Recommended Posts

Posted

To allow grouping of VMs and thus better organization. Say school, networking, current projects, and backburner projects as categorizations that someone might have. Go to VM tab and can expand only the folder you need like networking to troubleshoot  a problem instead of scrolling up and down all your VMs to go to the different networking related ones. For simplicity I would assume a VM would default to uncategorized (or unlabeled or whatever). Ideally this property of the VM could be changed with it running, like maybe one goes from projects to processing data to signify the functional state of the VM (big data application so runs for long time).

 

Farther down the road it would be nice to apply actions to the whole group. Start/stop/pause, and vnc to open a vnc window for each VM so you can quickly look at the whole group (tiling the windows would be cool but probably be too far). Apply settings to the group like autostart toggle. Can think of other actions, but not ones that make sense for unRAID VMs.
