Is there a means to test if a domU is startable other than by attempting to start it? It strikes me that for load balancing and failover, it would valuable to be able to submit a domU configuration and test that it is viable (I/O mappings exits, RAM available, CPU pin choices valid, etc) without actually attempting to start the domain . In particular, for failover setup, it is useful to know that a machine has the resources to run a domain should it be called upon to do so.
