Description Jake Hunsaker 2014-05-12 20:29:02 UTC

Description of problem:

When importing an Export or ISO domain, it is automatically activated. This is not always desired as the domain might be activated in another environment 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rhevm-3.3.2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import an Export/ISO domain
2.
3.

Actual results:

Domain is automatically activated

Expected results:

Domain should need to be manually activated by the user - I.E. only attached during import.

Additional info:

RHEV docs indicate that the domain should need to be manually activated:

Comment 1 Allon Mureinik 2014-05-14 10:36:40 UTC

The GUI should give the option to activate it, but I agree a user may want to disable this.

Comment 5 Kevin Alon Goldblatt 2014-07-07 13:08:39 UTC

Imported nfs/iso domain and it remained inactive. Moving to Verfied!

Comment 6 Pavel Novotny 2014-07-10 13:33:16 UTC

What I understood from comment 0, the customer wants to avoid the error "Error while executing action Attach Storage Domain: The Domain is already used by another Data Center..." when importing a domain already attached to another DC or RHEVM.

However this patch doesn't change anything in this case, because the error is thrown when attaching a domain, not activating it.

Therefore the correct functionality/checkbox should be "Attach Domain to Data Center", not "Activate Domain in Data Center".

Did I get it right?

Nope, an ISO domain can be attached to a few data centers at once, the customer wants to attach an ISO domain to a data center yet decide by himself when it should be activated as referenced in the documentation

Thanks Tal, if this BZ is just about the ISO domain, then it's clear.
