Feature Request: Historical Resource Usage

Not sure if in this latest release this was fixed but when you shut down a vm... all usage historical data resets to 0 when you start it back up.

Scenario:

1 customer of 20 are on a node causing the node to not perform optimally... drop offline... drop packets.... sometimes when this happends we cannot access the web interface to find out which specific vm is using all the resources.... a quick fix on our end would be to service vz stop. all vms are shut down abruptly.... service vz start to turn vz service back on a run a script to boot all vz containers. while all containers are booting, node is back online no issues are present amd most of the time when all vms are booted the issue has been alleviated.

when we go to node1> search then try to find out from historical data who was the cause of the issue all this data is gone.

I noticed that this also happens if a vm is running.... i goto web gui and stop the container than turn it on.. all historical data such as netin / netout are reset...

Could you guys change this so historical data usage is only reset upon deletion of the container?

If a client signs up in January and he starts / stops / reboots his server through out the year we should still be able to keep a historical track of the usage for this client.
