Description Julio Entrena Perez 2014-04-29 14:50:06 UTC
Description of problem:
While searching for objects that do have a specific tag in the search bar is possible (e.g. "Vms: tag = tag1") searching for objects that do not have a tag is not possible (e.g. "Vms: tag != tag1" returns nothing).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-webadmin-portal-3.3.2-0.50.el6ev

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create two tags "tag1" and "tag2".
2. Assign "tag1" to vm1 and "tag2" to vm2.
3. Search for "Vms: tag != tag1" in the search bar.

Actual results:
Nothing is displayed.

Expected results:
At least vm2 is displayed.

Additional info:
Searching with != operator is possible for other properties such as Name (e.g. "Vms: name != vm1").

Please note that this operation is not supported currently as shown in the attached screen shot.
If you think that this is a mandatory operation, you should open a RFE
