Description Adam Litke 2013-11-27 13:55:53 UTC

In the ovirt-engine search box, it should be possible to search on the description property for objects which have it.  Also make sure that the auto-completion feature suggests 'description' where appropriate.

The objects which need to be updated are: VMs, Templates, and Storage Domains.

oVirt 3.4.0 alpha has been released including the fix for this issue.

Comment 2 Pavel Novotny 2014-02-07 14:24:14 UTC

Verified in ovirt-engine-3.4.0-0.5.beta1.el6.noarch.

I created one of each following entities with description "my description":
data center, cluster, logical network, storage, disk, VM, pool, template.

Then I ran these search queries (also for the other entities beside 'Datacenter'):
Datacenter: description = "my description"
Datacenter: description = "my descr*"
Datacenter: description = "*description"
Datacenter: description = "*descr*"
Datacenter: description != "something else"
Datacenter: description != "something*"
Datacenter: description != "*else"
Datacenter: description != "*thing*"
dAtAcEnTeR: description = "my description"
Datacenter: dEsCrIpTiOn = "my description"
Datacenter: description = "My DeScRiPtIoN"
dAtAcEnTeR: dEsCrIpTiOn = "My DeScRiPtIoN"

All returned the given entity.


I encountered problems when using some special characters in the query, but it seems to be a more general problem of the search engine itself, filed separately as bug 1062351.
