[Xen-API] REQUEST - Power on after another VM was started

[Alberto González Rodríguez <alberto@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I would like know about your opinion about implement startup order on xenserver/xcp

I did a little modification on "xapi-autostart-vms" file, idea is the next:

- other_config:auto_poweron now is false or true, for any reason seems not boolean, then i can use "false" as value

- a two new fields on VM's other_config

�� � - auto_poweron_after: contains a vm uuid, if this value has a vm uuid, then is started when vm on auto_poweron_after field is in state "running"

�� � - auto_poweron_after_tools, contains a vm uuid, if this value has a vm uuid, then is started when vm on auto_poweron_after field has the field "live" in true

An example:

xe vm-param-set uuid=df81d848-e246-8958-125e-ad53d72b32de other-config:auto_poweron=after

xe vm-param-set uuid=df81d848-e246-8958-125e-ad53d72b32de other-config:auto_poweron_after=b2e6f6e0-c981-372e-10c0-a51bbc7164ec (or�xe vm-param-set uuid=df81d848-e246-8958-125e-ad53d72b32de other-config:auto_poweron_after_tools=b2e6f6e0-c981-372e-10c0-a51bbc7164ec)
