Hopefully a simple question - is there a way to find out which user created a VM? Do I need to have a manual process like manually tagging new VMs with the username?
 
This is written to the task log and journal. Here is an example:

Code: 
Mar 06 13:19:21 virtu02 pvedaemon[4300]: <peter@TUX.LAN> starting task UPID:virtu02:0000A6A5:000179D3:67C992C9:qmcreate:183:peter@TUX.LAN:
Mar 06 13:19:22 virtu02 pvedaemon[4300]: <peter@TUX.LAN> end task UPID:virtu02:0000A6A5:000179D3:67C992C9:qmcreate:183:peter@TUX.LAN: OK
 
Hello, no way to see this in the web ui? the Task History seems like a good way, but it only shows things like snapshots made.

The "create" task is definitely also logged in the task log of the guest. It might be too long ago though. But then the question is if it is still present in the syslogs/journal.

You are right! it just seems like it logs only the last month/30 days. Any easy way to increase the time?
